<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> c) Fertilization <br /> <br /> The Contractor shall fertilize all groundcover areas once per year (first week in <br /> April) per the City's agronomic plan (Attachment 4). <br /> <br /> d) Replanting <br /> The Contractor shall be responsible for the complete removal and replacement <br /> of ground cover lost due to normal attrition or due to Contractor's failure to <br /> perform under the terms of this Agreement. City is responsible for cost of <br /> replacing plants lost to vandalism; however, Contractor must prove that it was <br /> vandalism that killed the plant. The plants shall be planted at appropriate <br /> spacing so as to achieve complete coverage once the plant is 2/3rds mature. <br /> Any plants planted by City/others must be maintained by contractor. Contractor <br /> must notify City within 30 days if plants planted by City/others begin to decline. <br /> <br /> 3. Shrub Care <br /> <br /> a) Pruning/trimming <br /> <br /> All shrubs growing in the work areas shall be pruned such that the plants remain <br /> in a healthy growing condition. Plant growth shall be maintained to prevent <br /> overgrowth into passageways, walks, streets, view of signs or in any manner <br /> deemed objectionable by the Director. Dead or damaged limbs shall be removed <br /> so that no projections or stubs remain. Pruning/trimming shall be done by hand <br /> shears or loppers in a manner to permit plants to grow naturally in accordance <br /> with their normal growth characteristics. "Box hedging" may be required on <br /> some shrubs, as set designated by the Director. Shear hedging or severe <br /> pruning/trimming of plants, unless authorized by the Director, is not permitted. <br /> Topping of plants whose natural growth stems from the base of the plant is not <br /> permitted. Should the Contractor top, shear hedge or severely prune plants and <br /> disfigure or damage the plants, the Contractor shall be responsible for replacing <br /> those plants with like kind and size, subject to approval by the Director. <br /> <br /> The Contractor may be requested from time to time to raise the bottom of the <br /> shrubs for security reasons. <br /> <br /> b) Replanting <br /> <br /> The Contractor shall be responsible for the complete removal and replacement <br /> of shrubs lost due to normal attrition or due to Contractor's failure to perform <br /> under the terms of this Agreement. City is responsible for cost of replacing <br /> plants lost to vandalism; however, Contractor must prove that it was vandalism <br /> that killed the plant. The plans shall be planted at appropriate spacing so as to <br /> achieve complete coverage once the plant is 2/3rds mature. Any plants planted <br /> by City/others must be maintained by contractor. Contractor must notify City <br /> within 30 days if plants planted by City/others begin to decline. <br /> <br /> <br /> 20 <br /> 25H-30 <br />
