$117,762 lower than the assessments received. A savings will be experienced by awarding the maintenance agreement to EZ Sunnyday Landscape. The City proposes that the savings be utilized in the following manner: • $72,762 - fund a Maintenance Worker position in the LLMD to oversee the contractors service level and fund administrative costs incurred by the Public Works Department; $30,000 - kept in reserves; • $15,000 - fund as needed repairs to the irrigation system and replanting of foliage within the LLMDs. The LLMD is one of seven divisions the Public Works Department currently oversees. Maintenance of the areas within the LLMD 1 and LLMD 2 have been duties assigned to a single (1) Crew Leader and five (5) Maintenance Workers. At this time if the lowest bidder is awarded the proposed agreement one (1) of the Maintenance Workers currently working within the LLMD division will remain in the LLMD, funded by the savings, to ensure that the quality of work is maintained in both Districts. The remaining five positions working within the LLMD will be absorbed into the Parks and Streets Divisions where there are six (6) existing, unfilled, vacancies. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The award of this agreement will have a positive impact on general fund as the operating budget for LLMD division will not require a $156,741.90 contribution from general fund. In addition, the savings noted will pay for the LLMD division's corresponding administrative costs. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
