LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE CONTRACTS
WITH VONBANK LAWN CARE, INC. AND
JEFF REISINGER LAWN SERVICE, INC.
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve Enhanced Landscape
Maintenance Contract with VonBank Lawn Care, Inc. and Standard Landscape Maintenance
Contract with Jeff Reisinger Lawn Service, Inc.
Overview
The City has contracted with landscape maintenance companies to maintain various properties
throughout the city for over 17 years. Enhanced maintenance is performed on high profile sites
such as City Hall, the Police Department and Fire Stations. Standard maintenance is performed
at small scattered parks, public facilities such as well houses and lift stations, and parkway
boulevards and medians such as Ipava Avenue and Kensington Boulevard.
In the fall of 2011, City staff received bids for enhanced and standard landscape maintenance.
The City Council approved contracts with the low bidders, VonBank Lawn Care, Inc. and Jeff
Reisinger Lawn Service, Inc. The contracts allowed the City to extend the contracts additional
years, which occurred from 2013 to 2016.
Staff recommends extending the contract with VonBank Lawn Care, Inc. for enhanced landscape
maintenance services in 2018 at a cost of $52,550.00. Staff also recommends extending the
contract with Jeff Reisinger Lawn Service, Inc. for standard landscape maintenance services in
2018 at a cost of $80,049.00.
Primary Issues to Consider
