Services provided include the cleaning, servicing and <br />maintenance of the fountains, thereby improving their appearance and <br />sustaining clean, safe, attractive areas. <br />The current contract with Service 1St allows the fountains to be serviced, <br />while new contract specifications are developed. In order to encourage <br />lower and more competitive bids for the new contract, the fountain pumps <br />and filters will be serviced and the trees overlooking the fountains will <br />be pruned. The work will require an extension of the current contract and <br />will cause the $10,000 aggregate limit to be exceeded.

The new fountain maintenance <br />contract, with updated specifications, will be established within the next <br />two months. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Funds are available in the Civic Center Regular Maintenance Other <br />Contractual Services account (account no. 74-242-6291). <br />~~~ <br />Gerardo Mouet~ <br />Executive Dir ctor <br />Parks, Rec. & Comm.
