Staff reviewed the bids submitted by all vendors and recommend awarding Maintenance and General Service Agreements to Integrity Arborist and Ecoscape Inc; Greenfield Management; Tropical Plaza Nursery, Inc. and Greentech Landscape Inc. as the lowest responsive, responsible bidders. All licenses and references for the above vendors have been reviewed and vetted and all required documents and insurance have been received.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funding for the recommended actions was included in the Proposed FY 2026 Community Services Department Operating Budget within the General Fund 110 and various LMD/CFD funds in the Parks, Trees & Medians Maintenance Division. LMD 84-2 Zone 19 is located within the boundaries of bid areas 3 and 4. Zone 19 does not have sufficient funding in FY 2026 for the service levels as presented in the attached agreements.

However, in order to continue the landscape maintenance services, staff is recommending approval of the agreements . Staff will work with the vendors in those areas to outline the reduced services scope and will return to the Council at a future date with amended agreements.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This action is exempt pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which states that a project is exempt from CEQA if the activity is covered by the commonsense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. This action is to approve a Maintenance and General Services Agreement for landscape services, and there is no possibility that approving this agreement will have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no environmental analysis is required PREPARED BY: MOSES CORTEZ, PARKS AND TRAILS MANAGER
