As the city filed it
City Council on March 25 and 26, 2026, referred Item CC39.2 to the May 6, 2026, meeting of the Infrastructure and Environment Committee for consideration. In March 2025, City Council requested the City Manager to undertake a forensic audit of the procurement and award of winter maintenance contracts in response to concerns regarding fairness, transparency, cost outcomes, and contract management. The services of KPMG were retained to conduct the audit which examined the two negotiated request-for-proposal processes and a subsequent non-competitive procurement used to award winter maintenance services for the 2022-2029 period.
