The Mt. Lebanon Flower Bed Installation Project was not advertised but Gateway sent out bid requests to seven firms and five firms responded. Attached is a copy of the bid tabulation form and the purchase order.
Fourteen flower beds are being planted by Littles Landscaping out of McDonald, PA for the amount of $36,895.88. Gateway's fees were not included in the cost of this project. I am hoping that deer resistant plants were used this year, another recommendation made by Sandy Baker. The biggest deer salad bars, she noted, were planted by the municipality. Deer would cross roads to get to these gardens contributing to deer/vehicular accidents.
