Commissioners recommended that finance and council approve a three‑year janitorial services agreement with Coverall to clean park shelters and the community pool.

Unidentified Speaker 1 (role/title not specified) said the city solicited proposals from multiple cleaning contractors and had been satisfied with Coverall's service and communication during the 2025 trial. "We did our due diligence," the presenter said, noting the contract would include Parisi Park Shelter once that facility opens.

Contract terms and cost: staff described a three‑year administrative contract covering 2026'028 with an assumed annual cost escalation of about 2 percent: roughly $45,000 for 2026, $50,000 for 2027 (to reflect a year‑round facility addition) and $51,000 for 2028. Staff said the line items account for varied cleaning windows across seasonal and year‑round facilities.

Rationale and alternatives: commissioners observed that contracting seasonal cleaning can be more cost‑effective than hiring additional city staff for intermittent and specialized cleaning schedules. The presenter said the staff reviewed floor plans and cleaning frequencies and worked with the city attorney on contract terms.

Action: Unidentified Speaker 3 moved to recommend the three‑year agreement to the finance and personnel committee and the common council; a second was recorded and the commission approved the recommendation unanimously by voice vote. The commission asked staff to include cost justification for finance committee review as the item proceeds to formal approval.

Next steps: staff will forward the recommended contract to finance and council for final approval and will incorporate Parisi Park Shelter into the contract when construction is complete.
