The Huntington City Council on Jan. 21 awarded the city’s annual flower-beautification contract to United Lawn & Landscaping for $5,945.
Council member Jed presented bids, saying United Lawn and Landscaping (local contractor Damien Gordon) bid $5,945 while Anderson Nursery from Richfield bid $5,488; he noted the city has used Anderson in prior years but recommended trying the local firm. He told the council the city would reduce the number of planters from 185 to about 165 and remove some plantings from the cemetery and Miner’s Memorial to conserve water.
Several council members and staff discussed water logistics and drought risk. One council member expressed concern about watering given current snowpack, and staff said watering plans may include alternate sources, including private wells or culinary water if necessary. Council members approved the motion to award the contract to United Lawn & Landscaping by voice vote.
The contract award includes direction to reduce plant counts and to monitor watering needs through the planting window. If watering challenges arise, the council indicated it will revisit the program next year.
