Keller ISD to outsource landscaping; DynaMist awarded three‑year contract
Summary
Facing staffing and equipment shortfalls, Keller ISD approved awarding districtwide landscaping services to DynaMist Construction LLC under a three‑year agreement (first two years at set price), with a transition plan that keeps current crews through Sept. 1.
Trustees approved a recommendation to award contract RFP 2502‑03 for districtwide landscaping services to DynaMist Construction LLC, citing persistent in‑house staffing shortages and aging equipment. District operations staff said the three‑year contract includes two set‑price years and an option to renew with CPI adjustments; the bid covers approximately 33 mowings and includes hedge maintenance and limited tree trimming. "At worst case this will be revenue and expenditure neutral," an operations presenter said, noting the district also plans to offer transition interviews to displaced grounds employees and that the vendor had offered to assist campuses during the early school weeks.
The board discussed transition timing and communications; staff said existing landscaping crews will remain through Sept. 1 to allow for vendor staffing and equipment delivery, and the vendor will begin interviews and transition planning immediately after approval. Trustees approved the award 5–0.
