AGENDA TITLE: Landscape Maintenance at Hutchins Street Square with United Cerebral Palsy Association
MEETING DATE: Wednesday, June 20, 2001
PREPARED BY: Charlene J. Lange, Community Center Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That Council contract with the United Cerebral Palsy Association for
landscape maintenance at Hutchins Street Square beginning in July 2001.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The United Cerebral Palsy Association has expressed interest in working with
Hutchins Street to provide labor for landscape maintenance. The Square
currently uses 7,000 assigned hours from the municipal courts to supplement
staff and assist with the landscape needs of a ten -acre facility.
During the past year, it has been increasingly difficult to maintain a degree of level service through the
courts. The UCPA is offering a crew of four people, plus a supervisor that would be available daily, as
needed, to fill in those gaps. The hourly cost for the crew is $35.00 per hour.
If the arrangement is suitable to both parties, we will look to expand their scope of work to include the
indoor swimming pool and locker facilities. The pool is now being used from 6:30 am. to 9 p.m., seven
days a week, with minimal breaks available for daily cleaning.
FUNDING: Maintenance Account # 108525.7323 Professional Services. Estimated cost is $875.00 per
month depending on need.
