Council votes to put town grounds and cemetery lawn care out to bid
Summary
After discussing fertilizer options and treatment schedules, the council voted to solicit bids for groundskeeping covering the town hall and cemetery and asked for provider quotes or presentations.
The Clawson Town Council agreed to solicit bids for municipal groundskeeping, including cemetery and town-hall lawn care, after members discussed whether to continue the town's bid process or directly award work to a known vendor.
A council member suggested involving a local technical provider for fertilizer work, noting experience with multi-step treatment schedules. Members referenced the provider's multi-treatment program (treatments 1, 3 and 4 were discussed) and asked staff to request written quotes; one councilor offered to arrange a presentation if the vendor preferred.
A motion to put groundskeeping out to bid was made, seconded and approved by voice vote. The council directed staff to gather quotes for both the cemetery and the town hall and to circulate the estimates before the next meeting.
