Four firms submitted proposals deemed responsive to the <br />RFP. After review by a committee of internal staff, the five proposals were ranked and Pacheco <br />Brothers Gardening, Inc., a Hayward-based firm, was selected based on the firm’s highest score <br />and the second lowest bid price. The City entered into a contract with Pacheco Brothers <br />Gardening, Inc. on March 1, 2016. <br />Amendment No. 1 extended the Non-Professional Services Agreement through June 30, 2018 <br />and allowed the City Manager to extend the contract annually for three additional years by contract <br />amendment. The subsequent year, Amendment No. 2 noted that the company name had changed <br />to Del Conte’s Landscaping, Inc. <br />Analysis <br />If authorized, the existing contract will be extended for Fiscal Year (FY) 2021-2022 in the amount <br />of $204,987.36. The new contract price reflects a 3% increase over the prior fiscal year. Services <br />include maintenance of medians and other right-of-way landscapes, and/or weed abatement in <br />Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 11/24/2021 <br />190
