Staff Report Approve C33302 with Mariposa Landscape, 2nd One-Year Ext. for LMA 6 Page 2 of 2 April 27, 2017 Background The subject contract was awarded to Mariposa Landscapes, Inc., by City Council on April 24, 2014, for a term of two years, with an option for two, one-year extensions. The contract includes the monthly maintenance services for Desert Willow and its perimeter. On April 14, 2016, City Council approved the first extension, which is set to expire June 30, 2017, for the amount of$76,803. Mariposa Landscapes has agreed to a second one-year contract extension commencing July 1, 2017. However, due to the state's mandated minimum wage increase, they are requesting a 2.1% increase to help offset the additional costs. Based on Mariposa's performance, staff finds the increase to be reasonable. The request will increase the contract by $134.40 per month ($1,612.80 per year); raising the contract amount to $6,534.65 per month or $78,415.80 per year. Repair work and services covers unquantifiable activities necessary for landscape maintenance, which are not part of the landscape maintenance contract. This repair work and services includes, but is not limited to, repair and replacement of irrigation equipment; emergency tree work; replacement of trees and shrubs; pest control; and accident and vandalism repair and replacement.
