City hall grounds and Community Park have not had an application the past <br /> two seasons and the abundant weeds are overwhelming and threatening desirable <br /> grasses. Staff suggests entering into a service agreement for las spring and early fall <br /> applications to control broadleaf and fertilize at each of the three city parks and city <br /> hall grounds. Staff has received one quotation to date and two others are expected <br /> prior to the council meeting (5/25). Based on the quotation received, costs for these <br /> services will be as follows: <br /> Community Park $1,657.14 <br /> Curtiss Field 234.30 <br /> University Grove 368.49 <br /> City Hall 325.89 <br /> These expenditures would come from the park maintenance and building and grounds <br /> budgets. <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: Authorization to enter into a weed control and fertilization application <br /> application agreement for the city parks and city hall grounds. <br /> 'EN <br />
