Edelcup, Commissioner <br />Gerry Goodman, Commissioner <br />Lila Kauffman, Commissioner <br />Christopher J. Russo, City Manager <br />Lynn M. Dannheisser, City Attorney <br />Richard Brown - Morilla, City Clerk <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />It is recommended that the City Commission approve Twenty-Five Thousand, Six Hundred Five <br />dollars ($25,605.00) to complete the landscaping project at our Pocket Park and the seasonal change <br />of flowers along 174`h Street. <br />REASONS: <br />With respect to the Pocket Park, it was recently necessary to remove all the Australian pine trees <br />because of the danger from falling limbs. Replacement trees were planted but are many years from <br />creating a pleasant park atmosphere. Proper landscaping will provide a more three- dimensional look <br />conducive to use by our residents. <br />The medians along the length of 174th Street have been beautiful since "Luke's" first landscaped <br />them. However, the plants are seasonal and are nearing the end of their usefulness and must be <br />replaced with plants able to withstand the summer heat. The plants chosen are "Pentas" and <br />"Caladium ". <br />ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br />All plant and material costs listed in the attachments are consistent with "unit prices" established in <br />Lukes' Landscaping contract with the City. <br />S' cly, <br />U)ies ere .
