i) The materials used shall not be flammable or leave an oily residue that will discolor or <br />leave a slippery film on sidewalks and curbs. <br /> <br />j) The City may at any time during the spraying operation take samples to check materials <br />being used. <br /> <br />k) Upon request, the Contractor shall provide the City with information regarding chemicals <br />applied to specified locations. In addition, the Contractor shall upon request provide the <br />City with specimen labels of chemicals applied. In the event the treatment is not <br />effective, the contractor will be required to remove all growth from the area within the <br />limits of the spray application. <br /> <br />l) Pre-Emergent Applications: Where appropriate pre-emergent shall be applied before <br />winter rains. This must be done to help reduce the need for multiple applications of <br />additional pesticides to the site and avoid the use of power tools to knock down weeds. <br />Contractor shall advise City when the pre emergent is scheduled to be applied. Use of <br />irrigation systems may be used. <br /> <br />m) To enforce the most effective weed abatement program, the City will compensate for <br />weed abatement services as a bundled part of the monthly service fee proposed by the <br />Contractors and not as a per application fee. <br /> <br />n) Extra Work for weed abatement will be calculated as Per Linear Foot or Per Square Foot <br />depending on the type of treatment needed. The contractor shall be compensated once <br />for the service regardless of how many treatments are needed. <br /> <br />o) To that end, it is highly recommended that the Contractor utilize BMP’s and highly <br />effective measures for weed abatement to ensure compliance with the standards and <br />specifications in this RFP. <br /> <br /> <br />603 Mowing Weed Areas – Non Irrigated Areas <br /> <br />(a) Mowing shall be performed as directed by the City. Weeds will be mowed with a flail <br />(Self Mulching) mower to a maximum height of 2”. <br /> <br />(b) It is the intention of this specification to provide for mulching as would be furnished by a <br />Self Mulching Mower so that no grass or stubble shall exceed 2” in height. Weeds shall <br />be removed from against fences, trees, and other obstructions. If the City determines that <br />mowing practices or the condition of the weeds does not provide adequate mulching, the <br />Contractor is to remove the mulched weeds. <br /> <br />(c) The Contractor shall sweep sidewalks and roadways of plant material after cutting to <br />maintain a clean, neat condition. <br /> <br />Exhibit A <br />Page 43 of 55 <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: FBE0D324-5B4D-413D-B3D7-9F9F4584939A
