custodial services for City Hall. The mission of UCO is to positively impact the quality of
life for people with cerebral palsy and other developmental disabilities and their families,
as well as others with similar needs, by providing support and services with aide in the
achievement of their goals and desires. UCO works to provide programs and services
which meet the special needs of each child and adult, nurturing their talents and abilities
in order to help them reach their greatest potential. UCO believes that regardless of the
physical and mental challenges they may face, individuals with disabilities are entitled to
live in and belong to a community where they are accepted and included with dignity
and respect. In continued support of this social cause, this request would constitute the
continued assignment of City Hall custodial services to United Cerebral Palsy
Association of Miami, Inc. dba United Community Options of Miami. The annual cost of
services will have a value of $160,202.12 ($801,010.60 for the entire term including
