RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the resolution and acceptance of the contract with Embassy Landscape for installation of the landscaping along Argosy Casino Parkway North. Embassy Landscape is recommended because they presented the most cost effective bid which met the requirements of the landscape plan. An alternate plan within the contact was reviewed by the project engineers and accepted by Argosy.
