Summary

The council approved a contract with Victor Tosen (Victor Coastal Tree Service) to trim and remove several dead trees in the city park; the bidder provided insurance and offered a two-day completion window, with an option to stop if the service was unsatisfactory.

The Park Board recommended awarding the park tree-service contract to the low bidder, Victor Tosen (referred to in the record as Victor Tosen/Tosen). Park Board President said Tosen provided photos, returned insurance documentation and offered a two-day timeline with an option to cancel if the service did not meet expectations. The board noted the work will include removing three dead trees and trimming others as part of a general park cleanup.

A councilor moved to approve the tree-service contract; the motion was seconded and carried. The city will not require stump removal under this contract and the contractor indicated some debris could be directed to the city's burn pile if acceptable to staff.

Staff will coordinate scheduling and verify insurance prior to the contractor beginning work.
