Title/Name/Summary
Business Retention Consulting Services Contract Extension
History
In July of 2012, the Village partnered with the Orland Park Area Chamber of Commerce (OPACC) to conduct outreach and business retention visits with selected Orland Park businesses. Village staff provided training and technical support to the OPACC as part of this partnership. The contract (see attached) required the OPACC to complete a minimum of 10 visits per month, up to a maximum of 100. Due to a slower than anticipated start, the total number of visits were not completed by the end of 2012. As such, staff is recommending extending the existing contract through 2013, to allow for the continual completion of business retention visits. All other terms of the contract will remain in unchanged.
This went before the Development Services & Planning Committee on January 21, 2013 and was approved by a vote of 3-0.
Financial Impact
The existing PO will remain open. The maximum payout for both 2012 and 2013 will remain $12,100.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the extension of the Business Retention Consulting Services Contract with the Orland Park Area Chamber of Commerce which was originally approved in an amount not to exceed $12,100.
