This staffmember will be equipped with a gas powered edger, Tru Cut reel mower, walk behind piston type aerator and a mechanical broadcaster.

Bi-Monthly Tasks Using either a Kubota 2700 or 4100 tractor, both equipped with customized scarifying tines and a 3 point grading box, scarify each infield surface to a depth of %s inch. Then using the grading box, "float" the infield surface to remove areas that are high and ensure a level playing surface. When the floating process is complete, the infield mixed will be heavy watered to ensure proper compaction prior to use, This task will be performed by the Director or an Area Lead and will be completed based on the time schedule prescribed by City staff. _ _ Annual Tasks LL As one of the State's 3argesfpurchasers of West Coast Sand and Gravel's products, MLS will provide the infield mix materials specified in the RFP during December each year at the most competitive prices obtainable.
