Town to reissue grass-cutting and landscape RFP with added services and alternate pricing

Trappe Town Council · March 4, 2026

Summary

The council approved staff revisions to the grass-cutting/landscape RFP to add Town Hall services, leaf removal across town properties, twice-yearly mulching and an alternate line for contractor-supplied materials; the motion to send the RFP to bid passed unanimously.

Administrator Erin Braband presented a list of staff-requested items to include in the grass-cutting and landscape RFP, including adding services at Town Hall and leaf removal for all Town properties. President Newnam asked to "increase mulching to twice a year and to add an alternate to the RFP for contractors to include a price for them to provide materials and a price for the Town to provide them."

Commissioner Chase moved to put the revised grass-cutting/landscape RFP out to bid with those revisions; President Newnam seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The RFP will include the alternate pricing line for contractor-supplied materials versus Town-supplied materials and expanded service items as requested by staff.
