Additionally, on December 18, 2025, City Councial approved an increase to the contract in an amount of $2,095,000 per year for a total annual amount of $5,595,000. In accordance with Resolution 2018-075, individual amendments which exceed 1% of the total agreement price or $100,000 (whichever is greater) and multiple amendments which aggregate more than 10% of the agreement price shall be subject to prior authorization from the City Council. Recent change orders have expanded services to include security guard coverage at City acquired properties near Blackstone & McKinely Grade Separation project due to the vandalism of vacant buildings, Fresno Sanitary Landfill, Granite Park Sports Complex, Police Department Headquarters, Clarion Pointe, and unforeseen security needs. Staff recommends increasing the contract for a revised total annual amount not-to-exceed $6,136,000 for the remainder of the contract term plus annual CPI adjustments. This increase will ensure sufficient authority to address emerging and unforeseen security needs citywide. In addition, Staff recommends approving a one-time increase for security needs at the Blackstone & McKinley Grade Separation Project acquired properties, Clarion Pointe, and Fresno Sanitary Landfill as detailed in the section below. BACKGROUND A Notice Inviting Proposals was advertised on September 19, 2024, and posted on the City’s website. Over 600 potential proposers were notified of the RFP, 75 of which downloaded the RFP documents. Nineteen proposals were received by the October 22, 2024 deadline. A Selection Committee determined Universal Protection Services, LP dba Allied Universal Services (Allied) provided the best value to the City and recommended an award. On April 24, 2025, City Council approved a contract with Allied for $3,500,000 per year for one year with four optional one-year extensions to provide Citywide security services. On December 18, 2025, City Council approved an increase to the contract in an amount of $2,095,000 per year to include services for the FAX parking lot, Sequoia Brewery, and various parking garages for a total annual amount not-to-exceed of $5,595,000 per year. Since the award, and subsequent increase, several additional security assignments have been added to address emerging needs citywide, including: Granite Park Sports Complex – The City has recently assumed responsibility of Granite Park. Ongoing security services have been added to provide facility protection during non-operational hours and to support public safety as needed during events. Police Department Headquarters – Ongoing security services have been added for the City’s future Police Department Headquarters during the renovation and transition period to safeguard the facility and City assets. As future increases to this agreement are subject to Council approval per Resolution 2018-075, General Services has included $300,000 in spending authority to quickly respond to unforeseen Department requests for added security during the remainder of the contract duration. If security needs arise, each Department will be responsible for identifying funding within their adopted budget to fund each individual security assignment. Clarion Pointe – Additional security services have been requested to support operational needs at the Clarion Pointe shelter facility through October 2026. Blackstone & McKinley Grade Separation project – Additional security services have been provided on emergency basis to protect the properties and facilities acquired for the Blackstone & McKinley Grade Separation project to protect public health and safety. The goal is to prevent further vandalism, trespassing, and fire activity at multiple vacant buildings.

The assignment is expected to conclude once demolition activities are complete in December 2026. Security services are funded through the capital improvement project appropriations.
