BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This site improvement project will consist of removing 86 dead, diseased and/or hazardous trees, seven clumps of shrubs, and some minor pruning and site clearing. This first phase is designed to clean up the park area and prepare it for future development. Removing the dead and diseased trees will reduce the spread of disease and the risk of fire. The minor pruning is primarily intended to make the park area more visible from the roadway and reduce illegal activities, such as dumping or loitering. This first phase of cleanup should be accomplished as soon as possible, regardless of the schedule for future construction. The requested appropriation allows for contingencies. Revised specifications for this project were approved on July 18, 2001. The City received the following three bids for this project: Bidder Location Bid Engineer's Estimate $ 18,000 Berndt Tree Service Lodi $ 10,400 Grover Landscape, Inc.
