In the past, if staff was pleased with the performance of the contractor (responsive, <br />professional, and punctual) and the rates did not increase, the agreement was carried forward for a second <br />year. <br />Last year, the grass abatement contractor was Complete Grounds Maintenance at a rate of $25 per hour. <br />Staff recommends the Council name them as the contractor for 2012. <br />Additionally, last year, Larson Companies was named as the junk abatement contractor. Larson charged <br />$38 per hour and that price is the same this year. Staff recommends the Council name them as the <br />contractor for 2012. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />None <br />Action Motion by Second by Vote <br />Follow Up <br />N:\Public Bodies\Ciry Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\05-142012\2012 abatement contractors 5-14-2012.docx <br />
