The Sandy Springs City Council recently approved a $164,784 contract with Ruppert Landscape for landscaping services at city facilities.

In July, the city issued an invitation to bid for landscaping services at six facilities: 145 Hilderbrand Drive, 182 Hilderbrand Drive, 6110 Bluestone Road, 620 Morgan Falls Road, 7477 Trowbridge Road, and 1 Galambos Way. Ruppert Landscape was the lowest, qualified bidder out of four proposals.

The contract includes mowing, aeration, fertilization, pruning, pre- and post-herbicide treatments and irrigation system inspections. The scope also includes the services of a gardener who will be on the grounds of City Springs each week.
