Upon the conclusion of the first year of this contract, the Police Department Command Staff will review the effectiveness of Inter-Con Security Systems, Inc's personnel, and their performance during the New Year's Rose Parade.

On June 25, 2024, the City released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Special Event Security and Traffic Control for supplemental security and traffic control services for the annual New Year's Rose Parade. The RFP closed on Monday, July 29, 2024. The RFP was posted on OPENGOV, the City's online procurement hub. The RFP was downloaded by 10 security companies. Six companies submitted proposals. A review panel was convened which consisted of a Police Commander, two Police Lieutenants and a City of Pasadena Traffic Engineer. The panel evaluated and scored the six proposals based on criteria established in the RFP, including experience, professional qualification, hourly costs as well as local Pasadena business and small/micro business preferences. Each proposal was scored on a 100-point scale.

Staff is recommending the City Council authorize a contract with Inter-Con Security Systems, Inc. to provide supplemental traffic control and security services at New Year's Rose Parade, not to exceed $300,000.

COUNCIL POLICY CONSIDERATION:

The proposed action is consistent with the City Council's Strategic Plan Goals to ensure public safety and maintain fiscal responsibility and stability.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The proposed contract has been determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section15061 (b)(3), the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Such is the case with the contract authorization for supplemental traffic control and security services. The proposed contract consists of supplementing the City's police depari:ment with Inter-Con Security Systems, Inc. traffic control and security officers during the New Year's Rose and does not propose any physical changes to the environment.
