River Ridge to terminate Laz's Lawn Service, hires GulfScapes at $58,500
Summary
Citing poor performance, the board approved terminating Laz’s Lawn Service and engaging GulfScapes Landscape Maintenance Services at a proposed cost of $58,500, about $13,000 over budget; management was authorized to use withheld payments to offset plant replacement costs.
District Manager Mrs. Adams recommended terminating the Landscape Service Agreement with Laz’s Lawn Service, Inc., citing poor performance, and engaging GulfScapes Landscape Maintenance Services. Board discussion noted GulfScapes' proposal of $58,500, which exceeds the $45,000 budgeted amount by roughly $13,000; GreenScapes was not an option because it refused to execute the CDD contract.
On motion by Mr. Blumenthal seconded by Mr. Schultz, the board approved engaging GulfScapes and authorized management to terminate Laz’s Lawn Service immediately and to use payments withheld from Laz’s to offset replacement plant costs. The motion carried "with all in favor."
