DISCUSSION
The Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency is responsible for the
landscape maintenance at all City parks as well as the Santa Ana Zoo at
Prent ice Park. The maintenance includes: mowing and edging of turf,
pruning and trimming of trees and shrubs, removal and control of weeds and
of plant diseases and pests, plant irrigation, and the maintenance and
repair of irrigation systems. Additionally, the agency is responsible for
the general maintenance and upkeep of the Santa Ana Zoo at Prentice Park as
a safe and attractive feature of the City.
On September 2, 2003, the City Council awarded a contract to ValleyCrest
Landscape Maintenance, Inc., for a two-year period with provision for
three, one-year renewals. The vendor has agreed to renew the contract;
however, the vendor has requested a four percent increase due to the rising
costs of fuel and insurance. The vendor has performed satisfactorily
during the past contract period, and staff recommends the final renewal of
the contract.
