Title

Landscape Management & Maintenance of Rights of Way RFP

History

Three companies submitted proposals for the Landscape Management & Maintenance of ROW. The low proposal was from J.G.S. Landscape Architects, Inc. at a cost of $51,000.00 for 2013, $52,000.00 for 2014, and $53,000.00 for 2015. This proposal is for management and maintenance of the Rights of Way at 159^th and LaGrange, 143^rd and LaGrange, 143^rd and Harlem, and 142^nd and LaGrange. Other areas will be added when necessary in the future.  $150,000.00 was budgeted for this work. Over $35,000.00 plus is needed to replace plants on 159^th and LaGrange and 143^rd and Harlem. We will also purchase annuals and perennials for these islands to improve the aesthetics. 

On April 1, 2013, this item was reviewed by the Parks & Recreation Committee, recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.

Financial Impact

Funds will come from the Capital Streets/Right of Way account 054-0000-443300.
