Re: Resolution 12-21 2021 Central Landscape Maintenance Contract Bid Acceptance
Background
The Central Landscape Maintenance Contract was bid and contracted with Environmental
Management Inc. in 2020, with an optional renewal period. As part of the evaluative process to
ensure appropriate performance, it was determined that the Central Contract Maintenance
contractor, Environmental Management Inc. was issued over 150 notices to complete unperformed
work. As such, staff did not renew the contract with Environmental Management Inc. and rebid
this contract to ensure that the expected levels of maintenance would be attained.
Funding for the City’s Central Landscape Maintenance is included in the 2021 Operating Budget in
the amount of $210,000. On February 17, 2021, bids were opened for this contract. Three (3) bids
were received with the lowest of these bids being $217,440.00 from Five Seasons Landscape
Maintenance Inc. Collectively, all of the maintenance contracts combined are within the 2021
budgeted funds. Bids for this contract also provided unit costs for any additional emergency repair
work, mulching, or mowing as directed by the City to maintain the appropriate appearance levels.
