John Szerlag, City Manager <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />RE: <br /> <br />Jorge Vera, Assistant City Manager <br /> <br />r <br /> <br />September 21, 2006 <br /> <br />Approve a Resolution to Purchase Plants to Landscape the Two (2) Retention <br />Ponds Located on Sunny Isles Boulevard <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br /> <br />It is requested that the City Commission adopt the Resolution. <br /> <br />REASONS: <br /> <br />Currently there are two retention ponds located on Sunny Isles Boulevard at the east and west <br />side of the FPL substation that are in need of landscaping as the Boulevard is the main <br />entranceway into the City. These ponds are used for water runoff, however we can still <br />landscape them with salt and flood tolerant plants. <br /> <br />The School Board of Miami-Dade County has plants available for purchase through its <br />Agriculture System's student projects. The School Board has forwarded two purchase <br />agreements to the City for 21,800 fully rooted Lemon Bacopa plants, at $1.75 per plant, for a <br />total amount of $38,150.00. It is estimated that it will take approximately three (3) months to <br />grow the plants before they can be delivered to the City. <br /> <br />ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br /> <br />Funding for these plants is available in Account No.1 0.539.5348. <br /> <br />Agenda Item ~ 0 L <br />Date q - '2. \-Ok <br />
