DATE: March 2, 2015

SUBJECT:
Resolution Accepting the Bid from Twin Oaks Landscaping, Inc., Oswego, IL for the West Side Landscape Maintenance for the Divisions of Street Maintenance, Parks & Recreation, and Property Standards for 2015 and 2016.

PURPOSE:
To contract the landscape maintenance of right of ways, medians and city-owned parcels.

BACKGROUND:
The City's landscape maintenance contract for right of ways, medians, and parcels expired in 2014. This is the second of four landscape maintenance bid packages to be advertised for public bid in 2015.

DISCUSSION:
The City has landscape maintenance responsibility of various right of ways, medians, and parcels citywide. Twins Oaks Landscaping, Inc., has previously provided landscape services to the City and performed the work satisfactorily. They submitted the lowest responsible bid at $2,268.00 per mowing cycle. I recommend that we accept their bid for a 2 year contract with 2 one year mutually agreeable extensions.

Dollars have been appropriated in the 2015 budget in the following accounts: 101-4460-431.36-16, 101-4440-451.36-15, and 101-1727-424.36-14 for this expenditure.

IMPACT STATEMENT:
There should be no impact on other departments.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
That the City Council accept the bid from Twin Oaks Landscaping, Inc., Oswego, IL for the West Side Landscape Maintenance for the Divisions of Street Maintenance, Parks & Recreation, and Property Standards for 2015 and 2016.
