Commissioners award vegetation-management bid to Raintree Services
Summary
After comparing vendor pricing and spray schedules for Bid No. 28, commissioners awarded the vegetation-management contract to Raintree Services; the board cited unit pricing for two‑spray applications as the deciding factor.
The Board of County Commissioners voted Aug. 3 to award Bid No. 28 for herbicide vegetation management services to Raintree Services.
Commissioner Ross Selman reviewed the bids for vegetation spraying and compared per-spray rates. Selman noted DCS (DeAngelo Contracting Service) quoted $695 for two sprays, while Raintree had bid a three-spray package but said that a two-spray arrangement would be approximately $640 — about one‑third less than its advertised three-spray rate. After that comparison, Selman moved to award the contract to Raintree Services; Mike Haynes seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
The bid tabulation included multiple vendors and disparate pricing structures; commissioners selected the option judged to be lowest cost on the commonly requested two‑spray program. County staff will execute the vendor agreement and schedule service locations per district needs.
