INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
Date: May 4, 2020
To: Mayor and City Council
Ron Burton, City Manager
From: Darlene Thomas-Pierre, Code Compliance Manager
RE: Proposed Resolution No. 21363 —Authorizing the F st-Y ar Renew of Contracts
with Five (5)vendors on a Rotation Basis for the Mowing of Privately-owned and
City-owned Vacant and Developed Lots in an Area of the City Designated as Area
A.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt P. R. No. 21363, authorizing the first-year
renewal of the contracts with five (5) vendors for the mowing of privately-owned and city-
owned residential and commercial vacant and developed lots in Area A, an area of the city
which includes El Vista, Vista Village, Lakeside, Port Acres and Montrose One Subdivision.
The vendors are (1) K & D Affordable Lawn Service of Port Arthur, Texas @ $0.0030 per
square foot; (2) S-MO Unlimited of Port Arthur, Texas @ $0.0033 per square foot; (3)
Newcost Company of Port Arthur, Texas @ $0.0033 per square foot; (4) No Problem Lawn
Service of Beaumont, Texas @ $0.0033 per square foot; and (5) Mary's Land Maintenance of
Port Arthur, Texas @ $0.0035 per square foot. Each contractor has demonstrated that they are
qualified and capable to perform mowing services in Area A.
Background:
The contracts with the five (5) vendors were all approved by Resolution No. 19-184 on May 7,
2019; it was approved for one (1) year with an option to renew for two (2) additional years.
The vendors have been providing quality service and have met the terms of their contracts with
the City. The response and services of these vendors has been commendable. One contract
which was approved at that time (J. B. Lawn Service) will not be renewed due to the failure of
the vendor to meet their contractual obligations. These contracts are necessary due to the
abundance of high grass in Port Arthur, and the Environmental Health Division needs multiple
vendors to maintain each area. Below is the order of rotation for the vendors, as was
previously determined at the May 7, 2019, City Council Meeting. This contract will be the
second year of the contract with the option to renew for one (1) additional year.
