To date, there are approximately 137publicBMPsites, the <br />5 majority of which consist of raingardens, biofiltration basins, and ponds. <br />6 Proper maintenance is required for long-term functionality, as well as proper plant establishment, <br />7 which keeps the basins functioning and attractive. Not only does the City want to protect its <br />8 investment in stormwater projects, maintenance is also required as a condition of the watershed <br />9 district permits obtained for street improvement projects. <br />10 The previous three-year contract from 2018-2020 for BMP maintenance expired at the end of 2020. <br />11 Similar to 2018 the City issued a request for proposal for a three-year maintenance contract of BMPs <br />12 throughout Roseville. <br />13 F INANCIAL I MPACTS <br />14 Staff received three (3)bids for this project.
