Item No. 12-282
Date: 8/27/2012
Item/Subject: Order, Authorizing Execution of Extension of Contract with Global
Spectrum, L.P. for Pre -Opening Consulting Services for the Cross
Insurance Center
Responsible Department: City Manager
Commentary:
In June 2012, the City Council authorized the execution of a contract extension with Global
Spectrum to provide pre -opening consulting services through August 31, 2012. The contract term
assumed that the City and Global Spectrum would complete negotiations of a long-term agreement
to provide pre -opening operational services as well as the management and operational services of
the newly constructed Cross Insurance Center prior to its expiration. The City and Global Spectrum
are working through the draft long-term agreement and expect to wrap that process up in the near
term.
The attached Order would authorize the extension of the current contract and terms for pre -opening
consulting services, including the acquisition of certain furniture, fixture and equipment (FF&E) items
during this term with the express prior approval of the City Manager through October 31, 2012.
