Council awards $731K in contracts to landscaping business | Local News

The City Council recently voted to sign off on awarding a trio of three-year public grounds maintenance contracts totaling $731,226 to a local landscaping and lawn care business.

Precision Cut is now authorized to maintain the grounds of 11 facilities or locations for $496,785, the Battleboro and Northeastern cemeteries for $131,589 and four low-lying areas or areas with boat ramps or water for $102,852.

The vote occurred during the Oct. 25 City Council regular meeting.

The action also came in the context of extensive discussion having occurred during the Oct. 11 council work session about wanting the Parks and Recreation Department to be able to do more in terms of maintaining the public grounds in the future.

City Manager Small-Toney during the Oct. 11 council work session made clear that, as far as increasing the skillset of Parks and Recreation employees, she believed the first step would be to come back to the council in January with what a higher level of service, managed internally, is going to cost.

Still, Small-Toney made clear her plan in the meantime was going to be to ask the council to approve the three-year contracts with Precision Cut to continue to help with maintaining the public grounds.

And Small-Toney made clear the contracts would include wording giving the ability to the municipal government to make changes, including to reduce Precision Cut’s service level.

Precision Cut had been continuing to work amid a month-to-month contract extension based on a previous contract.

During the Oct. 25 City Council regular meeting, Councilman Andre Knight was quick to note the discussion of Oct. 11 having been intense and there being a lot of concerns about the contracts and the Parks and Recreation employees and to note the municipal management saying they are going to bring back a plan in January.

Knight wanted to know whether, as the council waits for what is going to come from the municipal management, it would be wise to instead set the lengths of the contracts at one or two years.

Mayor Sandy Roberson, who chairs council regular meetings, said he would let Small-Toney answer that question, but Roberson said his recollection was that, regardless of the terms, the contracts could be broken within a 30-day notice.

Small-Toney said that would be correct because the requests for bids were issued with specific requirements and expectations.

“And so as I said, we could amend the contract once it’s awarded,” Small-Toney said. “But I think to go back now and change the requirements for the contract would negate it, in essence.”

“That answered my question, thank you,” Knight said, adding he has no problem.

Councilman Lige Daughtridge made the motion, seconded by Councilman Richard Joyner, for awarding the contracts to Precision Cut.

In a roll call vote, Knight and Councilmen Reuben Blackwell, W.B. Bullock and T.J. Walker voted yes.

Councilwoman Chris Miller was participating in the Oct. 25 council regular meeting via teleconferencing.

City Clerk Pamela Casey twice called Miller’s name, but an immediate response from Miller could not be heard.

After Roberson said the motion carried, Miller said, “I abstain.”

“Well, that’s a yes vote,” Roberson said.

“I made the point I think,” Miller said.

“Yes, you did,” Roberson said.

City Attorney Jep Rose said abstaining is an affirmative vote unless Miller had a recognized reason for declining to vote yes or no.

“Philosophical differences,” Miller said in response.

“OK, very well,” Roberson said. “The vote is in the affirmative. The motion carries.”

Precision Cut is a woman-owned business and the City of Rocky Mount strives to involve minority- and women-owned businesses in seeking contracts.

The contract with Precision Cut calls for maintaining the grounds at the following facilities or locations:

  • The Douglas Block.
  • City Hall.
  • The Rocky Mount Senior Center.
  • The Imperial Centre for the Arts & Sciences.
  • The Rocky Mount Business Services Center.
  • The Rocky Mount Event Center.
  • The two Main Streets alongside the rail line.
  • The Rocky Mount Judicial Center.
  • The Helen P. Gay Rocky Mount Historic Train Station.
  • The bus station.
  • Station Square.

The contract with Precision Cut for maintaining low-lying areas or areas with boat ramps or water specifically lists the following locations:

  • Holly Street Park.
  • City Lake Park.
  • The Tar River Reservoir boat ramp.
  • The Sapony Creek boat ramp.

During the Oct. 11 council work session, Parks and Recreation Director Joel Dunn said his department did not have the people power to tend all of the municipal grounds in a timely manner and started looking at contracting out some of the work.

During the Oct. 11 council work session, Blackwell said he was not questioning either the intention or the work being done by Precision Cut.

Blackwell said, however, he was concerned the skill level of the contractor seemed to exceed, at least in Dunn’s confidence, the Parks and Recreation staff concerning key properties being contracted out.

During the Oct. 11 council work session, Knight said he believed it to be really sad when the municipality has to hire somebody from the outside to come in and beautify Rocky Mount.

Shiloh Place receives award from Keep Fremont Beautiful for new landscaping | Local News

The idea to expand Shiloh Place came almost suddenly to Cyndi Whitten.

“We only had 16 beds in this, and I thought, ‘You know, we have all of this land, and I could put beds there,’” she said. “So one day just on a whim, we just called a contractor and voila, we doubled our size.”

With the addition to the assisted living center at 915 N. H St. now completed, Shiloh Place has received recognition from Keep Fremont Beautiful with its Clean Sweep Award.

“We are honored to have gotten it, and we really receive it with humility and gratitude from the community and on behalf of the whole neighborhood,” Whitten said. “We’re grateful to our neighbors and grateful to the chamber for acknowledging us and whoever nominated us.”

The award was given Nov. 12 during KFB’s annual Fremont Area Chamber of Commerce coffee event, in which KFB Board Director Al Sawtelle handed out various awards.

KFB Executive Director Casey Vaughan said the award is part of the organization’s recognition program.

“Part of our mission is to engage community members in taking a greater responsibility for our local environment, and the recognition program does that by recognizing those that are doing their part to keep the community clean, green and beautiful,” she said.

The program also includes handing out certificates of appreciation to individuals on a monthly basis from April to September.

“Those are to local residences that are taking special steps to reduce litter, improve recycling or enhance the appearance of their property,” Vaughan said.

The Clean Sweep Award, given annually in November, goes to a local business or organization that has enhanced the appearance of its property through structural renovations or landscaping.

Vaughan said the Clean Sweep Award has nominations come in through community members and board members, and like the certificates, is voted on by the KFB Board.

“They just felt that Shiloh Place had done a beautiful job enhancing the exterior of their facility,” she said.

Whitten opened Shiloh Place with her husband, Eden, in 2014, in a Victorian mansion built in 1880. As well as assisted living, the center also provides medication management and meals.

“We also have our adult day program on Military, which offers activities and socialization during the day for adults who don’t have a lot to do during the day,” Whitten said. “And we provide transportation to and from that and to and from doctor’s appointments.”

As the building had a huge chunk of land next to it with no use, Whitten knew she wanted to expand Shiloh Place.

“My group here doesn’t really use the yard very much. It’s just a lot of older people, and it’s not just something we use,” she said. “We have to take care of it, but didn’t use it.”

Whitten brought the idea to her husband and First State Bank and Trust, which works with the center on its adult day program.

“I never saw myself building or adding on like this, but I’m really pleased that we chose to do this,” she said.

With a loan from First State Bank and everyone on board, the Whittens got to work on the project, which also included renovations to the existing building.

As well as repairing the building, Whitten said Fauss Construction also made the roof consistent with the addition.

“It was just time to do that. When they were tearing that old roof off, I think there were 10 layers on it,” she said. “It was bad.”

Additionally, Whitten said Siffring Landscaping and Garden Center provided landscaping, which included plants alongside a new sidewalk compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.

“They just did a fantastic job, and it’s all the way around,” she said. “And so we’re really super pleased with the job.”

Whitten said she was happy to receive so much help on the project, which was completed last summer.

“Thank God it started pre-COVID, because I got it built right before the price of lumber doubled and tripled, and I’m so grateful for that,” she said. “And we filled those beds almost immediately.”

The addition has been “seamless” for Shiloh Place’s existing residents, Whitten said.

“All of our residents are loving it,” she said. “We’ve also had people stop by, walking by and driving by, and just say how pretty it is. So we’re really enjoying it.”

Whitten said she was pleased that Shiloh Place received the Clean Sweep Award, as she said the area looked rough before the project was completed.

“We wanted it to look really nice for our neighbors, but it didn’t for a long time,” she said. “And so it’s very nice for everybody, for the whole community.”

Though not all of the artists are Iowa-born, each has made Iowa their home. Many of the pieces on display from each of the artists represent or show recognizable Oskaloosa and Iowa scenes.

“A lot of times art means more to people if they have a connection with it,” VerSteegh said.

Whether it be a print of the Oskaloosa City Square’s band shell or a one-of-a-kind jewelry piece, Envision Art Gallery has something for everyone.

“For a small town like Oskaloosa, there’s a lot of things happening in the community to support art,” Babich said. “There are people who create art and there’s just as many people who want to see art. I thought we needed to be that connection between the artists and the audience who is interested in art.”

Knight instructed Small-Toney that he believes obtaining a system set collectively ought to not consider as well long.
