The City solicited quotes from three landscape contractors and chose <br />South Coast Growers, Inc for having the lowest quote for the services being requested. <br />South Coast Growers, Inc. will provide and install all the landscaping for an amount not <br />to exceed $23,597. <br /> <br />ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br /> <br />\ <br />\ <br /> <br />The owner of the property will reimburse the City $16,600 for the cost of four medjool <br />palms. The remaining funds will be appropriated from the excess of fund balance in the <br />general fund at the end of fiscal year 2009120 10. Excess funds equate to approximately <br />$1.95 million, of which $1.36 has been earmarked for the Heritage Park project leaving a <br />remaining balance of approximately $600,000. <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />.
