DESCRIPTION: On April 1, 1997, the City Council awarded the San Ramon Road
Landscape Repair and Silvergate Drive Median Landscaping Contract to Herzer Landscaping,
Incorporated. This project renovated existing landscaping on San Ramon Road and installed landscaping
in the medians at Silvergate Drive.
Landscaping along San Ramon Road had experienced a difficult time establishing in the existing soil.
This project allowed for the removal of existing soil and replacement with top soil and fir bark top
dressing. English Ivy was planted throughout the length of the project, Silvergate Drive north to Shannon
Avenue. For variety, clusters of three shrubs were also planted between every other existing tree.
Medians along Silvergate Drive were also renovated with this project. All but one of the existing medians
were excavated and filled with an aggregate base and sand. This material laid the foundation for paver
stones. Paver stones were placed in a pattern to match those in the medians along Dublin Boulevard and
Village Parkway. Trees were planted in tree wells spaced on approximately 30' intervals along all
islands. The island between San Sabana and Calle Verde was planted with shrubs and trees as well as
trimmed with the matching paver stone work. Shrubs were also planted at the north east corner of
Silvergate Drive and San Ramon Road to improve the appearance of that corner. All areas on Silvergate
Drive were improved with automatically controlled irrigation.
All work has been completed as per City plans and specifications. Staff'recommends Council accept
improvements under contract 97-03 and authorize payment to Herzer Landscaping, Inc.
