Title: Janitorial and Security Contract Analysis Presentation and Memo

Summary

The Richmond City Council is reviewing options for janitorial and security contracts amid rising labor costs. Proposed changes include updating contracts to meet the City's $20 minimum wage, projected to increase costs by $1.04M annually for janitorial services and $1.1M for security. Bringing services in-house could nearly double expenses, with significant long-term implications. The Administration recommends keeping the current model while focusing on fair compensation through contractual amendments.
