bidder. TruGreen is recommended for award of all areas based on their overall pricing, past
performance, and ability to assign maintenance crews to the contiguous areas and open space
districts they service. City Open Space Inspectors will also be able to manage work performed by
one contractor more efficiently than if multiple awards are made; and
WHEREAS, performance standards and terms & conditions of Landscape Maintenance
of Open Space Districts Bid #1-04/05 shall apply to the auxiliary areas. TruGreen will provide a
performance & payment bond through the life of the contract, including option periods; and
WHEREAS, the contract is for one-year with five one-year options, if work performance
is satisfactory. Additional one-year extensions shall be by mutual agreement of the Contractor
and City. Prices shall remain firm for the first contract year. For the option years, price
increases are based on changes in the annual San Diego Consumer Price Index, for an amount
not to exceed 5%. The City reserves the right to accept option year price increases or terminate
the contract without penalty.

Vista does hereby award a contract to TruGreen LandCare in an amount of $164,921 for annual
