Finance committee approves housekeeping and a 1.5% contract increase for landscaping and snow‑removal vendor
Summary
The committee approved a name‑cleanup assignment to align a vendor's two registered business names and approved a contract amendment implementing a 1.5% year‑over‑year increase; one alderwoman sought typographical corrections and the amendment was approved as amended.
The Kenosha Finance Committee on Nov. 3 approved two contract items affecting the city's property maintenance vendor Woods Can Do It.
Staff explained one item is a cleanup to reflect the vendor’s two registered names in contract records (Woods Can Do It Corporation and Woods Can Do It Landscaping and Snow Removal Services LLC). The committee approved that assignment.
A second item amends the Woods Can Do It maintenance contract to provide a 1.5% year‑over‑year increase. An alderwoman pointed out typographical errors in the written dollar amounts (a numeric mismatch: $1,948.88 vs $1,945.88) and a wording issue; she moved to approve the contract as amended to correct the text. The committee voted to approve the amendment as corrected.
Staff thanked local reviewers for identifying the typographical errors; the amendment was recorded as approved on roll call.
