Background:

Specific Explanation:

The Chief Information Officer (CIO) recommends that City Council approve an amending ordinance to amend Ordinance No. 2010-0403 to increase the maximum contract amount from $403,387.32 to $613,096.06 for the Lease Agreement (4600010281) between of City of Houston and HPT TRS IHG-3, Inc managed by IHG Management (Maryland), LLC  for the lease of ground space and roof top space for communications equipment in connection with the public safety radio system located in Houston, Texas, for the Houston Information Technology Services (HITS) on behalf General Services Department (GSD). 

 

 

The contract was approved by City Council on June 2, 2010, by Ordinance No. 2010-0403 for a five-year Lease Agreement with three five-year renewal optional years in the original amount of $120,000.00 and subsequently increased to $403,387.32.   Expenditures as of October 21, 2024, totaled $402,626.81.  The maximum contract amount does not cover the second five-year renewal term of this Lease Agreement.  Therefore, by way of this Ordinance, the City is requesting an increase to the maximum contract amount from $403,387.32 to $613,096.06 to cover the planned extension for the second five-year term.  The Lease Agreement allows the City to continue the lease of ground space and roof top space for communications equipment in connection with the public safety radio system located in Houston, Texas.

This Procurement is exempt from the MWBE, subcontracting goal participation.  This agreement is for ground space lease only and the City is responsible for all site maintenance and utilities.
