Background and Discussion:

Full-Service Contracts are utilized to maintain the 18,000+ acres of vegetation throughout the county.  All nine (9) sectors now utilize a full-service contract.  Full-service contracts are structured so needed maintenance such as debris removal, buy-out lot mowing, and fence line pruning, are incorporated into a single contract.  This inclusion of services has helped the District and its contractors provide a year-round presence and a reduction of deferring maintenance activities that cost less when performed more frequently.

 

Expected Impact:

Awarding this contract will allow the District to provide the citizens that live within this sector a level of service they have come to expect.  These services include mowing channels and basins three times per year, monthly mowing of buy-out lots, debris removal as needed, and clearing fence lines along access points and adjacent to the channels.

 

Alternative Options:

Awarding a contract that provides fewer services or a reduced level of services.  Performing some of the services with in-house forces.
