Subject: Change Order for Native Seed and Bermuda Blend at
Northlake
John,
See attached change order and seed alternative for North Lake.
This is highly recommended by our landscaping company. The
specifications call for all Bermuda seed and Greenscaping, our
landscapers, have raised concern that for this application, the Bermuda
seed will germinate and grow while AW is irrigating, but after we move
offsite, this grass will be dormant much of the time. The native blend
he has recommended is made for applications such as this. Also, only
putting one variety of seed on the dam, leaves the grass susceptible to
disease which will not be an issue with multiple varieties. Let me know
if you would like to proceed with this option.
