RECOMMENDED ACTION
Amend the contract with DMS Landscape Services to clarify responsibilities
related to landscape and grounds maintenance, and increase the contract by
$56,000 for a total not to exceed $485,840.
DISCUSSION
At its meeting of December 1, 2003, the City Council awarded a contract to
DMS Landscape Services for landscape and grounds maintenance at various
City parks for a period of two years. In addition to the base contract of
$429,840, the contract also allows for a 10 percent ($42,984) contingency.
The recommended action will approve the contingency amount and an
additional $13,016 to pay for work associated with winter rain and wind
related damages. This amount will cover the cost of work performed during
the course of the contract and anticipated before the June 30, 2005
termination date.
The amendment will terminate the existing contract on June 30, 2005. In
addition, the amendment modifies the indemnification and additional insured
endorsement language to clarify the roles of the City and DMS related to
park safety inspections. A request for proposal process for a new park
landscape and grounds maintenance agreement is underway and a new agreement
will take effect July 1, 2005.
