APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract with Dominguez
Landscape Services, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000 for installation of drought resistant landscaping
projects, for the period of July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2018, Countywide. (100% General Fund)
FISCAL IMPACT:
This cost is to be funded through Public Works Facilities Services budget. (100% General Fund)
BACKGROUND:
The Public Works Grounds Division is looking at creative ways to encourage the saving of potable water at County
facilities. Converting the grass and green ground cover to drought resistance plants that require less water will aid in
the effort to reduce water usage. As bid on BidSync #1504-030, Dominguez Landscape Services, Inc. was one of two
lowest responsible and responsive vendors for this commodity. Facilities Services is requesting a contract to be
approved for a period covering the next three years.
This landscaping work will exceed the $45,000 threshold identified in the Public Contract Code. As such, the
department is required to contract this work out.
