BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:

The County of San Benito has fifteen (15) County Service Areas (CSAs) and one (1) Community Facilities District (CFD) whose services include maintenance and operation of storm and drainage facilities and/or maintenance of landscaping. Those CSAs include: CSA 9 Ridgemark, CSA 16 Holiday Ranch, CSA 21 Long Acres, CSA 23 Rancho San Joaquin, CSA 24 Santa Ana Acres, CSA 28 Heatherwood, CSA 34 Ausaymas Estates, CSA 35 Union Heights, CSA 42 Lemmon Acres, CSA 46 Quail Hollow, CSA 47 Oak Creek, CSA 48 Dry Creek, CSA 51 Comstock Estates, CSA 53 Riverview Estates, CSA 55 Creekside 5/6 and CFD 2015-01 Santana Ranch. Services will include all necessary personnel, equipment, tools, materials, and expertise to maintain healthy drainage culverts, grass, trees, shrubs, and plants within the CSAs and CFD. Services will be provided in a manner that will present a clean, free of obstruction (culverts and detention ponds), neat, pest and disease free environment and appearance of each CSA/CFD (landscape areas).   

In an effort to improve service delivery to these CSAs and CFD, the Resource Management Agency issued a Request for Proposals in the Spring of 2020 for contract drainage and landscape maintenance services.  New Image Landscape Company submitted the lowest responsive proposal with an annual not-to-exceed amount of $105,350.00 annually or a total contract amount of $526,750.00, for five (5) years.
