Contract Control Number: FINAN-201415058

 

Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): The Greenway Foundation

 

Type and Scope of services to be performed:

The Greenway Foundation Contract (FINAN-201415058) was approved and adopted by City Council in 2014. It has since been amended with additional capacity and term so The Greenway Foundation could continue to support the City’s environmental resiliency and climate goals by advancing programs and projects that enhance the South Platte River and its tributaries. The contract currently has a capacity of $1,189,000 and a term ending on 12/31/2021.

 

This amendment proposes to increase the master on-call contract amount by $175,000 and amend the term end date to 12/31/2024. This capacity increase and extension will continue to enable The Greenway Foundation to provide advisory and education services to the City and County of Denver, as well as advocate on behalf of projects related to the South Platte River and its tributaries. The City and The Greenway Foundation have a long and successful history of partnership to achieve a shared mission of reclaiming, redeveloping, and protecting the South Platte River (and surrounding tributaries) as a unique environmental, recreational, cultural, scientific and historical amenity. Through this contract, the departments of Transportation and Infrastructure, Parks and Recreation, and Public Health and Environment (DDPHE) negotiate individual task orders for work including, but not limited to, advocacy for federal funding on behalf of projects related to water quality, ecosystem restoration, and flood risk reduction; environmental education and community outreach programs; and any additional grant support. The Department of Finance manages the multi-departmental contract for the purpose of authorizing work performed, tracking budget capacity, keeping a master calendar and coordinating/avoiding duplication of services between user agencies.
