STAFF REPORT RECOMMENDATION: In concurrence with the Purchasing Agent, the Public Services Department recommends that Mayor and Common Council adopt the attached resolutions to authorize weed abatement services with two contractors, H & H Citrus, Inc. and Darrel Barbarick. BACKGROUND: Specifications were prepared, published and furnished to area contractors. Bids were publicly opened and declared on June 28,1994. Due to the nature of this work, an annual contract bid amount cannot be tabulated. There is an amount bid for specific tasks to be performed, such as, cost for discing, mowing and hand cleaning. Bid prices range from $35.00 to $45.00 per task. For the purpose of this contract, a cost not to exceed, $150,000 has been established for both contractors combined and a cap for the total amount the City would pay for services will be established at $150,000. DISCUSSION: Annual weed abatement cycles were increased in 1993/94 from two (2) to three (3) cycles per year. An important element in adding a cycle was the authorization of two (2) contractors for providing abatement services. The City is divided into two (2) geographic areas and each contractor is responsible for a specific area. As a result, last years abatement periods were reduced to two (2) months, as compared to four (4) months with one (1) contractor. Approximately 3,000 parcels are abated annually, which in the opinion of staff exceeds the capabilities of one (1) contractor. SUMMARY: Following a review and evaluation of the bids, staff agree that the bids submitted by H & H Citrus, Inc. and Darrel Barbarick meet the needs of the Weed Abatement Program. Both contractors have previously worked for the City and provided satisfactory services. IMPACT ON THE BUDGET: Funds are included in the 1994-95 fiscal year budget. Dtl.5vr. ?
