The <br />maintenance enables the City to receive automatic updates to the software and it allows staff to seek <br />technical assistance when needed. <br />The agreement includes professional services for upgrading to the newest version of the permitting <br />software, as well as ongoing maintenance and technical support. The initial term of the agreement is three <br />years following the execution date, with automatic renewal for an additional one-year term, unless <br />terminated by the City or CentralSquare at least six months prior to the expiration date of the initial 3- <br />yearterm. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />The total not -to -exceed amount of the agreement is $370,000, which includes a 7% contingency for <br />potential system upgrades.
