Why This Vote Matters
The council rejected a proposal to delay approving a $42,210 annual contract for cleaning restrooms at eight city parks. Councilmembers Boozé and Myrick wanted to wait until the city budget was finalized before moving forward with the janitorial services contract, but five members voted against the delay. The contract with D.M.G. Janitorial Services would cover cleaning at popular parks including Jay Vincent Park, Shimada Park, and MLK Park for two years starting in July 2014.
