Analysis
The PID Board recommended that LandWorks be awarded a contract for landscape and irrigation system maintenance services.  The term extends from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013.  LandWorks had the contract last year and performed satisfactorily.
 
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 LandWorks following approval by the City Council.
 
Financial Consideration
Funds for this contract are available from annual assessments adopted by the City Council on September 18, 2012, which are estimated to generate $182,871 for the fiscal year.
