DATE'. June 3, 1992 CO^
SUBJECT: Johnson and Beneke , Inc. Weed Abatement Contract Extension
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOIMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
AUTHORIZE Chair, Board of Supervisors , to execute a contract
extension with Johnson and Beneke , Inc. for the continuation
of weed abatement services through December 31 , 1992 .
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS :
Weed abatement contract ;;`32250 with Johnson and Beneke , Inc. for
exterior fire hazard control by mowing, disc, bulldozer and rubbish
removal terminated on December 31 , 1991 .
After the catastrophic fire in Oakland, the Fire District began a
review of the existing contract and is in the process of making
major changes and modifications . The district expects a greater
number of complaints this season since the level of concern of the
public is higher due to the fire. The Fire District continues to
have great concern of the possibility of such a fire occurring here
since many of the factors involved in the Oakland fire are an annual
condition within its jurisdiction.
Time has now become a problem. There is not sufficient time to
complete the review, obtain the necessary approvals and put a new
contract into place before conditions would become critical . The
only viable alternative available now is to extend the current
contract through 1992 .
