CONSIDERATIONS: The City Commission requested at the November 9, 1998 that the stafflook into adding the right of way mowing on Lori Anne Lane and First Street to the landscape maintenance contract. The west side of Moss Road from S.R. 434 to First Street was already included in the base contract. As shown on the attached map, the majority of First Street between Moss Road and Fairfax Avenue is already under contract maintenance. The cost to add the remaining western end of the south side First Street is $70/month for weekly summer service (March to September) and $35/month for biweekly winter service (October to February). This includes the mowing of the right of way. The overgrown wax myrtle area is not in the right of way and is not included in this scope of service. The cost to maintain the right of way on Lori Anne Lane is $400lmonth for weekly summer service (March to September) and $200/month for biweekly winter service (October to February). This includes mowing, edging, fertilization and pest control of the area between the sidewalk and curb on the north and south sides of Lori Anne Lane. Our policy for right of way maintenance has generally precluded those areas immediately in front of developed November 23, 1998 Regular Agenda Item F Page 2 properties to which the property owner has access. The maintenance of Lori Anne Lane would not be consistent with our current practices but First Street would be. An inspection of these areas indicated that Lori Anne Lane was reasonably maintained but First Street was neglected. FUNDING: Sufficient funds exist in the Repair and Maintenance of Grounds line code of the Public Works Department budget (4410-54682) for the maintenance of both areas. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the western end of the south side of First Street be added to the Right of Way maintenance contract at an annual cost of $665 payable from the Repair and Maintenance of Grounds line code of the Public Works Department budget (4410-54682). It is also recommended that Lori Anne Lane not be added to the contract because it is not consistent with current policies and practices. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE: ---. The new landscape maintenance contract will commence on December 1, 1998 and the approved areas will be added at that time. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Location Map COMMISSION ACTION: o N k.
