TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
VIA: SERGIO GONZALEZ, CITY MANAGER
FROM: STEPHAN HUNT, CHIEF OF POLICE
DATE: JUNE 17, 2019
SUBJECT: RENEWAL OF JAIL SERVICES WITH THE G4S SECURE SOLUTIONS (USA)
INC.
BACKGROUND:
In July 1999 City Council approved of the privatization of Azusa’s City Jail with the G4S Secure
Solutions (USA) Inc. (formerly Wackenhut Corporation) in terms of a three (3) year term with
two additional optional one (1) year terms. The contract has been renewed three (3) times since
its original implementation in 1999. The Police Department staff is pleased with the service of
the G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. and is recommending a renewal for another three (3) year
term with two additional optional one (1) year terms as specified in the attached contract.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council take the following action:
1) Approve the renewal of the Operating Contract for the Azusa City Jail with the G4S
Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. for another three (3) year term with two additional optional
one (1) year terms.; and
2)Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement, subject to changes made by the
City Attorney and Human Resources Director to the insurance and indemnity provisions
as recommended by the City’s insurance carrier, on behalf of the City.
ANALYSIS:
APPROVED
CITY COUNCIL
6/17/2019
G4S provides the labor to operate Azusa’s Type I Jail on a year round, 24 hour a day basis.G4S’s
performance over the past twenty (20) years has been commendable. G4S jailers have thwarted
many attempt suicides by inmates; they maintain the cleanliness of the jail facility and are in part
responsible for the successful inspections by jail oversight entities (e.g., California Standards
Authority, Grand Jury, Juvenile Court Commissioner, L.A. County Health and Fire
Departments).
Highlights of the contract include a minimum of two custody officers on duty for each shift 24
hours a day, one of the custody officers being female to be in compliance with regulations
regarding female inmates, and one of the custody officers being bilingual in the Spanish
language.
The proposed contract contains essentially the same terms and conditions negotiated in the
original contract with some changes, namely G4S’s liability is no longer limited to the contract
price. The City Attorney’s office has reviewed and approved the form of the proposed contract.
The renewal of this contract is based on the alternative purchasing procedure authorized under
Section 2-521 of the Azusa Municipal Code. Under that Section, competitive bidding, either
formal or informal, is not required providing the competitive bidding has already been completed
through a GSA contract and the price to the City is equal to or better than the price available.
G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. and the services to be provided by them are under GSA
Contract #GS-07F-0382K.
When comparing the quote to the City of Azusa for services with the GSA contract, the price to
the City is equal to or better than the GSA pricing, which ensures the City is receiving the best
price available.
FISCAL IMPACT:
In the proposed budget for F/Y 2019/2020, staff has budgeted $515,724 for G4S’s services. Each
year, any increases in the contract cost is negotiated by staff and G4S and are restricted as per the
terms agreed upon in the contract.

incurred by G4S as a result of such termination. Availability of funds will be
determined at the sole discretion of the CITY.

completion of the contract term, and G4S shall be liable to the extent that the total
cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the Agreement
