The Charlotte Avenue field renovation requires the installation of 56, 000 square
feet of turf grass. This will be put on the fields themselves the off field areas will
be hydro seeded. We received four quotes two firms quoted the same price which
is the low bid. The recommendation is to award the job to Tuckahoe Turf. We
have had a lot of experience with this firm and the installer they will use. We have
used their product at several of our athletic fields and Holman Stadium and we
have always been happy with the results. The installation will occur in mid to late
September. The Superintendent recommends this purchase be awarded to
Tuckahoe Turf Farms. .
