Board approves one‑year hold‑harmless leaf‑pickup agreement for Park Place mobile home community
Summary
The board approved a one‑year agreement to continue city leaf pickup at Park Place MHC LLC. The agreement includes a hold‑harmless clause for city vehicles on the private road and is expected to be the last year the city provides this service to that private community.
Alderman (as noted in the transcript) requested board approval to continue city leaf pickup at Park Place mobile home community for one final year. The agreement asks the board to approve a one‑year leaf‑pickup arrangement with Park Place MHC LLC and includes a hold‑harmless clause so the city is not liable if city vehicles damage the private road.
The presenter said the city has provided this service at the park for decades but budgetary constraints require ending the service after the approved year. Going forward, staff and the owner will create a plan for residents to bring leaves to Elder Street for city pickup; the owner agreed to the terms.
Board members clarified that snow removal for the community is privately contracted and that this leaf pickup approval is a one‑time accommodation. The board approved the agreement.
