Body

Summary: 

The City of Deer Park Parks and Recreation Department solicited request for proposals from vendors to complete invasive tallow mitigation services in the conservation easement of the Deer Park Nature Preserve. The City received four (4) proposals for tallow mitigation and removal services. Proposals received were from Yellowstone Landscape, HGS, LLC dba RES Environmental Operating Company, LLC., Sprayco, and The Urban Foresters.

The Parks and Recreation Department has evaluated the proposals received. The areas to be serviced in the mitigation are critical to the agreement with the US Army Corps of Engineers and the Nature Preserve ecosystem. It is important that the contractor possess the proper equipment, personnel, knowledge and experience to undertake this contract. For this reason, the City utilized the request for proposals method for this solicitation.
