Description/History

This contract was advertised for bid on February 10, 2016, and again on February 17, 2016. This contract was for the mowing of city wide parks, medians, rights-of-way, and municipal sites. A mandatory pre-bid meeting was held on February 25, 2016. A total of two contractors attended. The bid opening was held on March 3, 2016. A total of one contractor submitted a bid for this contract. Staff recommends the rejection of this bid and re-advertising and rebidding this contract as two separate contracts.

Justification

With only one contractor submitting a bid, it is difficult to ensure that this is the best value for the City of Mansfield.

Funding Source

General Fund

Half-Cent Sales Tax
