Executive Summary:
The City of Flagstaff contracts with Pinnacle to provide custodial services at multiple City facilities under the City-Wide Custodial Services Contract and at the Flagstaff Pulliam Airport under a separate Airport Custodial Services Contract.
Effective January 1, 2026, the City of Flagstaff minimum wage increased from $17.85 to $18.35 per hour. Pinnacle formally notified the City that the minimum wage increase would require a corresponding 3.25% increase to Pinnacle’s bill rates to account for wages, taxes, and insurance, in order to maintain staffing and service quality.
The proposed amendments update the compensation provisions and associated pricing exhibits for both the City-wide and Airport custodial contracts to reflect the 2026 City minimum wage adjustment and update Airport cleaning frequencies to more accurately reflect their needs. All other terms and conditions of the original contracts remain unchanged.
