CONTENTS: Proposal
Recommendation:

Discussion:
The City of Palm Desert changes the annual color on the EI Paseo Medians and Civic
Center Park twice per year. In order to ensure product quality and availability, the
Landscape Services staff contracts annually with a color grower to produce the flowers.
A request for proposals was sent to the current color vendor, as well as other local color
vendors; a notice inviting bids was advertised in the local newspaper and opened on
Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Following are the results:
Arakawa Nursery, Inc. (Corona, CA) $14,961.34
The Color Connection (Hemet, CA) $20,840.05
RZ Landscape (Indio, CA) $57,056.00
Funds are available in Account Nos. 110-4610-453-2190 and 110-4614-453-3370.
