No guarantee was made that the City would purchase specific quantities. This bid was advertised in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on June 22, 2022, June 29, 2022, July 6, 2022 and July 13, 2022. The City received three (3) responses.

Therefore, the panel recommends that Council authorize this agreement to North Texas Hydromulching and Landscape Services, LLC and C.Green Scaping, LP.
