Role & Authority

A landscaping contractor with two confirmed contracts with the HOA:

  1. Landscape Maintenance (Common Areas) — multi-year contract through November 2027; $17,880 in 2025, $18,784 in 2026 and 2027. This is a broad common area grounds contract, not limited to mulching.
  2. Mulch (2025 only) — $4,585 for 2025; discontinued after July 2025 when Yellowstone Landscape was selected for mulching at $4,505.

Fisher Burton’s continued presence in the 2026 budget and cost-share spreadsheet reflects Contract 1 (landscape maintenance), not the discontinued mulch contract. This resolves the open question about why Fisher Burton appeared active after the July 2025 discontinuation announcement.

Open Questions

None. The May 2026 board packet resolved all prior open questions by confirming two separate contracts. The $17,424 Landscape Contract line (8110-00) in the 2025 Year End Report year-end-report-2025 represents Fisher Burton’s landscape maintenance contract (not Yellowstone, which handled mulch only). The $960 South Basin cost-share line is a subset of the broader landscape maintenance scope.
