Thank YOU for reaching out and giving us a chance to make that amendment to the N
27th medians and double check the other locations.
Sounds good! We greatly appreciate your consideration.

Hi Matt,
Thanks for checking in on these locations. I believe I know what happened with at least
the first two locations.
S 8th (Main to College): No price change is needed.
We set the pricing model floor acreage to 0.25 acres and the S 8th location
came in right above that threshold at 0.31 acres. So, while I
probably "could have" bumped up the price to our floor of $50.00 for
anything under 0.25 acres, locations like this balance out when
considering the whole contract. So, the price of mowing S 8th will remain
at $44.95 (+$20.15 per trim).
**N 27th (Oak to Baxter):** Similar to the S 8th location, the mowable acreage
for N 27th's turf grass is 0.30 acres, just above the 0.25-acre floor. Also, I believe
I only accounted for mowing the turf grass that makes up 4 of the 6 medians.
**Price change request: If changing the price is acceptable because we
did not account for native grass mowing, can we request to increase our
proposed mowing price by $50.00 to $93.50 when mowing both native and
turf grasses? So, the cost remains $43.50 for mowing turf grass only
(+$19.50 per trim) and increases to $93.50 when mowing both turf
and native grasses on an as-needed basis.
Davis Ln (Oak to Baxter): No price change is needed.
One clarification: how far down into the ditch would mowing be expected?
I have attached photos of Davis Ln medians and it appears that most of the
median would only require one or two mowing passes from the curb. I
calculated a total of 0.52 mowable acres, so let me know if your
expectation is further into the embankment/ditch and I can adjust the
acreage/pricing accordingly.
Valley Center (19th to 27th): No price change is needed.
Simple medians and a lack of obstacles/landscaping got us to the $96.60
price for mowing/trimming on Valley Center.

Hey Scott,

Hi Matt,
I apologize I missed your call earlier. I must’ve been in the air at the time. I am
traveling back to Bozeman today, but will be in the office tomorrow. If it’s anything
you need right away, feel free to give me a call this afternoon and I can chat,
otherwise, does it work to talk first thing Tuesday and I can have all my numbers in
front of me?
Thanks!
Scott
