The Gavin School District No. 37 Board approved a three-year contract with Apex Landscaping covering the 2026–2028 seasons, a contract administrators said provides budget predictability.
The agreement maintains current pricing for 2026 and 2027 and applies a 3% increase in 2028 (an average 1% annual increase). The minutes list Central’s two-year cost at $9,882.51 with an increase to $10,179 in 2028; South’s two-year cost is listed at $13,024, rising to $13,415 in 2028.
