Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Development to modify a contract with Mowtivation Lawn Services, LLC in an amount up to $30,000.00 and to extend the contract completion date to September 30, 2020.
Mowtivation Lawn Services LLC will provide services that include trash and debris removal from structures, cleaning and abatement of vacant lots, boarding structures, graffiti removal, tree services, and similar work for properties in the Land Bank.
In early March 2020, the department was just beginning the procurement process to solicit services for this program for the 2020 fiscal year. Given the recent developments with COVID-19 and limited staff resources working from home, the department wishes to modify existing contracts through September. This will allow the city to maintain existing and new properties in the Land Bank. In late summer, the department anticipates completing the procurement effort for contract beginning in October.
