Subject: Dacono Park seeding
1. In reference to our recent telephone conversation I am submitting
this proposal for the seeding of the Dacono Park. The area to be seeded
is approximately five acres, This area is served by a sprinkler system
which is more than adequate to ensure proper irrigation of the grass.
The following itemized expenditures represent the least expensive way
that the task can be accomplished and still ensure success in the planting=
Tilling: $100
Sprinkler heads: $462
Seed: $500
Fertilizer: 1000
TOTAL: 20 2
2. The town has solicited bids for the project for two years with no
success. The reason for this is that none of the bidders were willing
to till the ground with a sprinkler system in place. As the town has a
tractor and the manpower available and for a modest price can rent a
suitable tiller, we have decided that the project can be undertaken
in-house without contracting it out. In addition, after consulting with
a seeding company, we have determined the most cost-effective blend of
grass seed for this time of year and the most suitable fertilizer. The
cost of sprinkler heads represents what will be required to place the
entire sprinkler system into operation.
3. I have been advised by the seeding company above that there is adequate
time left before seeding would be fruitless but that time is rather limited.
It has been estimated that we have three weeks time in order to accomplish
this project this year, The time that is remaining is more than adequate
and it is for this reason that I respectfully submit the above plan for
your consideration.

Robert D. Coney
Town Manager
