SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the approval of a first amendment to a Professional Services Agreement between the City of
Denton and Rizikon, Inc., amending the contract approved by the City Manager on May 20, 2020, in the
not-to-exceed amount of $90,000, said first amendment to provide additional on-site safety services;
providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an effective date (File 7383 – providing for
an additional first amendment expenditure amount not-to-exceed $50,000, for a total contract amount not-
to-exceed $140,000).
INFORMATION /BACKGROUND
The City employs various risk and safety management methodologies across the organization to address
occupational health, risk, and safety activities aimed at the reduction of the frequency and severity of
injury and losses. As of May 29, 2020, the City did not have any safety personnel due to several staff
members accepting the Voluntary Separation Program. This PSA for on-site safety services is a short-
term contract for business continuity until a final contract is awarded by Council for safety services.
The City is currently evaluating RFP 7353 - Safety Services to determine next steps with its Safety
Operations. This contract amendment with Rizikon, Inc. allows for continual on-site safety services while
the City finalizes procurement procedures and bring a final contract for safety services to Council on July
21, 2020.
