RE: Leddy Group Staffing Services
By way of background, during the COVID-19 Pandemic and subsequent to the partial re-opening
of City Hall to process motor vehicle registrations (MVR), the Financial Services Division
contracted with the Leddy Group (staffing company) to hire a resource to configure and
implement an online appointment system for motor vehicle registration customers. To date, we
have had two resources that have provided valuable help in the operation and management of the
online appointment system as well as staff augmentation for the MVR department.
Through this communication we are requesting the ability to continue our week to week
relationship with the Leddy Group with an amount not to exceed $40,000 through June 30, 2021.
