Resolution to Approve a Professional Services Agreement with All Weather Comfort Solutions LLC for Weatherization Services Related to Bryant Neighborhood Decarbonization Work ($270,000.00)
Memorandum
Attached for your review and consideration is a Professional Services Agreement with All Weather Comfort Solutions LLC to complete weatherization services in homes within the Bryant neighborhood as part of the City's work to decarbonize the Bryant neighborhood in Ann Arbor.
To date, Council has approved numerous Professional Services Agreements to complete home improvement projects with grant dollars from the Michigan Public Service Commission. Unfortunately, one of the selected weatherization contractors, Decima, was unable to complete projects in the timeframe necessary for the project. As such, the Office of Sustainability and Innovations terminated the award with Decima.

This firm was All Weather Comfort Solutions LLC.
Staff reached out to All Weather Comfort Solutions LLC to confirm they were still interested in working on the Bryant project, that their pricing still held, and that they had the capacity to immediately scale-up and start working in the neighborhood, should Council authorize their PSA.
