Background:

The City went out for bids and received four (4) proposals on November 27, 2018. One (1) proposal did not meet bid requirements, two (2) proposals with the lowest bids had inconsistencies causing staff to seek an informal Request for Information (RFI). With the information received, it was then determined that M+ Company Landscape and Maintenance was the most responsive for this project.
The bid addresses the following tree maintenance at each live oak tree: pruning of 2" or larger deadwood, deep root fertilization using Davey Arborgreen, and soil drench treatment of fungicide within the root zone. Scope of work includes: Forty-three (43) trees at League Park, forty-three (43) trees at Heritage Park, and thirty-eight (38) trees at Lynn Gripon Park at Countryside.
The amount of $94,833.70 fits within the budgeted amount of $110,000 under Parks Facilities Renewal in FY2019. Funds in the amount of $94,834 are available from Misc Capital Projects Fund 5015 with expenses charged to Project Expense String PK1801D-CONSTRUCT-CONSTRUCT-TS CASH 5015440-52150.
