Item #06 Valley Crest Landscape Maintenance Contract, Second ExtensionC of Good Li, AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET Meeting Date: February 5, 2013 Item # Reviewed By: Contact Name: Stephen C. Krug Department Director. Contact Number: 6002 City Manager: Subject: Valley Crest Landscape Maintenance Contract, Second Extension. Background Summary: The City contract with Valley Crest Landscape Maintenance for maintaining the City's landscaped areas and roadway medians expired in September of 2012. In the same month, the Commission extended the landscape maintenance contract through February 28, 2013 to allow the Parks & Recreation and Public Works Departments to solicit the new landscape contract. The RFP has been advertised with submissions due on February 12, 2013. In order to avoid any lapse in service, we are requesting a 60 day extension to the current Valley Crest contract while the selection committee evaluates the submissions to ensure the high maintenance standards are sustained. This will extend the Valley Crest contract to April 29, 2013, giving adequate time for RFP evaluation, Commission award and contract transition. Issue: Request the City Commission to extend the Valley Crest Landscape Maintenance contract 60 days. Recommendations Recommend the City Commission extend the current Valley Crest Landscape Maintenance contract 60 days. The extension will allow the City to complete the RFP process for new landscape maintenance services. Attachments: Financial Impact: The contracted work is adequately funded in the budget.
