Title

Contract with LandCare for Tree Pruning in the amount of $104,000 in Peninsula PID (Council Districts 4 and 6)

Presenter

Lee Harriss, Special District Administrator

Recommend Action

Approve

Analysis

The PID Board recommended that LandCare be awarded a contract for tree pruning services. The term extends from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. 

Texas Local Government Code, Chapter 252.022 (a) (9) exempts public improvement districts from competitive bidding requirements. Per that statute, the PID Advisory Board is empowered to enter into contracts such as the ones with LandCare following approval by the City Council.

Financial Consideration

Funds for this contract are available from annual assessments adopted by the City Council on September 15, 2020, which are estimated to generate $1,758,771 for the fiscal year.
