Council approves amendment to New Image Landscape contract to add facilities; staff says it saves $6,500 annually
Summary
Council approved an amendment to the existing landscape maintenance contract with New Image Landscape to add several city facilities including the water and wastewater treatment plants and the bus hub; staff said the addition will save roughly $6,500 per year.
The council approved an amendment to the city's existing contract with New Image Landscape that adds several city facilities — including the well water treatment plant, wastewater treatment plant and the bus hub/clock tower — to the contractor’s scope. A member of the public asked whether this was a new contract or an addition; staff confirmed it is an expansion of the existing agreement.
Staff said adding those locations to the current contract saves the city about $6,500 annually by contracting out median and facility maintenance rather than performing the work with city crews. Council approved the amendment after a brief public exchange and a roll-call vote.
