AGENDA TITLE: Adopt a Resolution Awarding the Contract for Legion Park and Lawrence Park Tree
Trimming to Grover Landscape Services, Inc. ($40,210); and Appropriate $52,900 for
the Project
MEETING DATE: November 15, 2000
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution awarding the contract for the above
project to Grover Landscape Services, Inc., of Modesto, in the amount of
$40,208; and appropriate $52,900 for the project.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project will provide for the trimming of 90 trees at Legion Park and
80 trees at Lawrence Park. The objective of this contract is to improve
tree safety, tree health, and structural integrity of existing trees in both
parks.
TruGreen LandCare, L.L.C., was the apparent low bidder. Staff determined their bid to be incomplete and
non-responsive as the bidder failed to submit required references. Therefore, staff requests the contract be
awarded to the second lowest bidder, Grover Landscape Services, Inc., in the amount of $40,208. The
City's past experience with Grover Landscape Services, Inc., and favorable references provided from cities
of Stockton, Gustine, Turlock and Ceres, attest to their expertise and professional performance.
Specifications for this project were approved on September 20, 2000. The City received the following three
bids, as detailed on the attached bid summary, for this project:
