City Council to consider award of an annual contract to Trees, Inc. as primary supplier

of tree maintenance services. Contract expenditures will not exceed the annual

FUNDING SOURCE:
100-44540-312-3 General Fund/Parks Maintenance/Professional Services .... $50,000
BACKGROUND:
Bids were taken in accordance with Local Government Code Chapter 252, Subchapter
B, Section 252.021 (a) and Section 252.041 (a). Bids were publicly read aloud per the
attached tabulation sheet.
Notice to bidders was published in the Grapevine Sun and the Fort Worth Star Telegram
on January 17, 2002 and January 24, 2002.
This contract establishes fixed pricing for tree maintenance services to be used on an as
needed basis by the Parks Department.
The City received five bids. The bids were opened on February 8, 2002 and publicly
read aloud. The bid requested unit pricing on different labor configurations for pruning,
tree removal, stump grinding and disposal. The lowest bid received was from Trees, Inc.
This vendor met all of the requested bid specifications and requirements.
Staff recommends that Trees, Inc. be awarded an annual contract as primary supplier
for tree maintenance services. Because of the need to insure uninterrupted service in
case of emergency requirements it is also recommended a second award be made to
the second low bid of Asplundh as secondary supplier in cases where the primary
supplier cannot perform these services.
