DESCRIPTION: On February 1, 2000, the City Council awarded Contract No. 00-02,
Arterial Landscaping Improvements, to DB Landscape. This project originally consisted of two projects
in the City's Capital Improvement Program, namely 1) City Entrance LandsCaping Improvements, and 2)
Major Arterial Tree Well/Median Planting. These projects were incorporated into one contract to reduce
construction and administration costs. On April 4, 2000, City Council approved contract change order
No. 2 to include landscaping improvements on Stagecoach Road with this project.

The City Entrance Landscaping Improvements project enlarged and improved bedding areas at the City
entrances on Village Parkway at Kimball Avenue and on San Ramon Road at Alcosta Boulevard. The
new plantings provided color and a "signature statement" entering the City. In addition, new flowering
shrubs were planted in all median tree wells on Dublin Boulevard from San Ramon Road to Dougherty
Road, on Amador Valley Boulevard from San Ramon Road to east of Village Parkway, and on all of San
Ramon Road and Village Parkway. Some of the shrubs in the median bedding areas were replaced with
more colorful varieties. Stagecoach Road landscaping improvements included new plantings on the east
slopes and the placing of cobblestones in the landscaping strip along the eastside of Stagecoach Road.
Staff recommends that the City Council accept Contract No. 00-02, Arterial Landscaping Improvements,
and authorize the release of retention in the amount of $6,906.60 after 35 days if there are no
subcontractor claims.
