AGENDA TITLE: Acceptance of Improvements Under Mistletoe Removal and Associated Tree
Trimming Contract
MEETING DATE: May 7, 1997
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council accept the improvements under Mistletoe Removal
and Associated Tree Trimming contract, and direct the City Engineer to
file a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder's office.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to Grover Landscaping, Inc., of Modesto,
on January 15, 1997, in the amount of $9,420. The contract has
been completed in substantial conformance with the specifications
approved by the City Council.
The contract completion date was March 17, 1997. The final contract price was $12,375. The difference
between the contract amount and the final contract price is mainly due to the trimming of an additional
43 trees in Districts 3 and 4, and the removal of a structurally hazardous Modesto Ash tree. A total of
237 trees were trimmed.
FUNDING: As determined at contract award.
