MEMO TO: SUPERVISOR JOSEPH RUGGIERO
TOWN BOARD MEMBERS
FROM:
RALPH J. HOLT, CHAIRMAN
RE:
P.O. FOR TICK SPRAYING
The following companies submitted bids to perform the tick spraying for our Town
recreation areas for 2006.
Bug Busters
N. Y. Tick Control
Craig Thomas Pest Control
$4,900.00 per visit
$5,032.50 per visit
$5,870.00 per visit
The low bidder is Bug Busters. They have stated that they will be requiring the use of
Town water to complete the job. Several years ago another local firm used our Town
water by inserting their spraying hoses into Sprout Creek.
The second lowest bidder, N.Y. Tick Control, has done and excellent job over the past
years, and we would like to propose using them again this year. N.Y. Tick Control brings
their own water and sprays over 10 feet beyond our required park perimeters. The
amount difference, per spraying, is only $132.50.
May we have your approval to use N. Y. Tick Control again this year. If so, we would
like permission to obtain three (3) P.O.'s in the amount of$5,032.50 each. One P.O. will
be for the May spraying, one for the June/July spraying and the last one for the Sept/Oct
spraying. The funds will come out of Acct. # A-7110.434
