New Community Landscapers for Mabel Bridge
Ackman Bros. Selected as New HOA Landscaper
Early this year, our Mabel Bridge Landscape Committee sought out contract bids from several well known landscaping companies in our area, including an updated bid from our existing landscape maintenance provider. After careful review and analysis of their service offerings as well as in-person meetings with all of the bidding vendors, the Landscape Committee presented their recommendations to the Board or Directors during our January Board Meeting.
Ackman Bros. Landscaping, Inc. was determined to be the leading choice and was invited to the next Board Meeting.
Ackman Bros. made a presentation and answered questions from the Board as well as Homeowners during our February Meeting. After some additional negotiation with Ackman, they were selected as our new landscape maintenance provider with a start date of April 1, 2015.
What to Expect
- Homeowners will start to see trucks and staff from Ackman Bros. Landscaping in and around Mabel Bridge common areas right away.
- Heavy pruning will take place on some shrubs and trees that are not currently in good health. In some cases, things may look worse before they look better. We have confidence that Ackman Bros. will help us restore our plants and shrubs, but it will take some time.
Questions or Concerns
If you have any questions or concerns about the selection of the new vendor or any activities/actions taken by Ackman Bros., please contact our Community Association Manager (CAM).
If you would like to contact the Board or Directors, please send your message to our Community Association Manager, who will forward it to the Board members.
