River Ridge board terminates Laz's Lawn Service, contracts GulfScapes for $58,500

River Ridge Community Development District Board of Supervisors · November 19, 2024

Summary

Citing poor performance, the board terminated Laz's Lawn Service and authorized engaging GulfScapes at $58,500 annually; the board noted the GulfScapes proposal exceeds budget by $13,000 and discussed offsetting costs from withheld payments to Laz's and unassigned funds.

The board voted to terminate the landscape-service agreement with Laz's Lawn Service effective immediately and to engage GulfScapes Landscape Maintenance Services. Mrs. Adams said Laz's had performed poorly and presented GulfScapes' proposal of $58,500, which is approximately $13,000 higher than the $45,000 budgeted for landscaping.

Board members discussed using unassigned funds to cover the extra cost and offsetting plant-replacement expenses through payments withheld from Laz's Lawn Service. On motion by Supervisor Kurt Blumenthal and seconded by Chair Bob Schultz, the board authorized the termination and engagement of GulfScapes; the motion carried with all in favor.
