OCII approves second amendment to MJM Management contract to add four Mission Bay parks
Summary
The Commission on Community Investment and Infrastructure approved a second amendment to MJM Management Group’s contract to add four parks in Mission Bay and increase management fees by $22,045, keeping the total aggregate fee at or below $658,639; OCII said the term is not extended and the agency will rebid at contract expiration.
The Commission on Community Investment and Infrastructure on March 17 approved an amendment to the personal services agreement with MJM Management Group to add four Mission Bay parks to the contractor’s management scope and increase the aggregate management fee by $22,045, bringing the total not to exceed $658,639.
OCII Director Bohe and Acting Project Manager Lila Hussain told commissioners the amendment adds parks now under construction (including the P6 children’s playground and parks labeled P26/P27, P11 and P19) to MJM’s ongoing maintenance and operations contract. The scope remains standard park management services — landscape maintenance, janitorial, security and capital maintenance — and will be funded from Community Facilities District No. 5 assessments. Hussain said P6 (a children’s nature play area) should open in July or August, and staff will report exact dates to the commission.
Hussain said the amendment does not extend the contract term; OCII is in the second contract year and expects the contract to expire at year’s end, at which time the agency will issue a full request for proposals for the next term. Catherine Reilly, project manager, told commissioners MJM was the responsive proposer to the 2009 RFP and that the amendment rolls newly completed parks into the existing contract rather than creating a new procurement now.
Commissioners asked about competitive procurement historically, the number of bidders in 2009 and how additional parks would affect staffing. Hussain said the original RFP produced one responsive proposer for the full complex; she explained that maintenance intensity varies across parks and OCII plans to distribute staff across sites rather than assign a crew to each park. She added that MJM is a woman‑owned firm and three subcontractors listed for the amendment are SBEs and comprise 58% of subcontracted work on the contract.
Public commentator Ace Washington spoke in support of MJM’s local hiring and past work. The commission moved, seconded and approved the amendment by roll call (3 ayes, 1 absent). The action was recorded under the consent/regular agenda resolution referenced in the staff packet.
