On July 26, 1989, bids were opened for the Comprehensive Street Tree
Maintenance Contract. The contract included three sections: (1) tree
trimming, (2) pest control and (3) emergency service hourly rate. Only the
tree trimming and emergency service portions of the contract were awarded to
Golden Bear Arborist, Inc. All but one of the bids exceeded the $50,000
budget guideline for pest control services. At that time Council directed
staff to re -advertise for pest control services.
By November 8, 1989, five vendors purchased bid packages for pest control
services and one vendor submitted a bid. Bid amounts for both bid openings
are as follows:
