Town Square one step closer to final plan on landscaping


web posted February 15, 2008
EDGEFIELD – The Town of Edgefield is one step closer to a plan to re-landscape the town square with the Advisory Committee opening the proposals and bids on Wednesday. With prices ranging between $23,000 to almost $35,000 Mayor Ken Durham said he had to do a little work to get an “apples to apples” comparison.

Due to some of the proposals having more trees, pavers, and other items listed Mayor Durham said he subtracted the cost of the extra items so the committee had a clearer comparison. Even by subtracting out the extra Items, Rock Creek Landscaping had the lowest bid at just over $23,000.

Mayor Durham said he and the advisory committee would be meeting with agents from the Clemson Extension Office next week to discuss what type of plants and trees would be best and when is the best time to do the planting.

“Nothing is final yet,” Mayor Durham said. Even after the next meeting the entire town council has the final say on the matter. The date for the next meeting has not been designated.

Mayor Durham said he would like to have the public’s input on the plan before it is finalized.
