HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - December 19, 2001 E-10AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Awarding Contract for Landscape and Irrigation Installation on the
South Hutchins Street Median to Odyssey Landscape Company, of Stockton ($184,040)
and Appropriate Funds for the Project
MEETING DATE: December 19, 2001
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution awarding the contract for the above
project to Odyssey Landscape Company, of Stockton, in the amount of
$184,039, and appropriate $190,000 for the project.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The South Hutchins Street median has not been landscaped since it
was installed in 1974. As this is one of the main entrances to Lodi, the
City has had many requests from the public to have it landscaped.
Besides the aesthetics, the installation of landscaping will suppress
dust and increase the shade on South Hutchins Street, thereby reducing the urban -heat-island effect. In
addition to landscaping the center median, also included in this project is the east side frontage from Century
Boulevard to Mendocino Drive. The requested appropriation includes $4,961 for contingencies.
Specifications for this project were approved on September 5, 2001. Four companies purchased bid
packages for this project; however, we received only one bid.
