BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project provides for the contract maintenance of 50 landscaped areas within the City and the White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility. This excludes the Downtown School Street area and the area along Cherokee Lane. These sites were bid separately. Cherokee Lane will be awarded prior to expiration of that individual warranty period. Staff is still evaluating the bids submitted for School Street. Specifications for this project were approved on May 20, 1998. The City received the following two bids for this project: Bidder Engineer's Estimate Odyssey Landscape Company, Inc. Ireland Landscape Company, Inc. Location Bid $60,000.00 Stockton $51,648.00 Stockton $54,918.00 The bid from Ireland Landscape Company, Inc. is non-responsive as the bid proposal was submitted without the required 10 percent bidder's guarantee. The 1998/99 landscape maintenance contract reflects a 19 percent increase over the 1997/98 contract. However, the 1997/98 contract was 7 percent below the prior year's contract. Thus, this bid is more in line with the cost to do a proper job.
