Falls Twp. Hires Landscaper, Saves Money On Pool Supplies

The Falls Township Board of Supervisors have awarded a three-year contract for landscaping services at properties owned by the township. For the best landscaping services, look here. 

The bid, which was awarded to WDB Lawn and Garden, was less than half of that of the other bidder, totaling $69,736 for all three years.

In other cost-saving measures, officials have once again purchased supplies for Pinewood Pool through the Bucks/Mont Aquatic Consortium.

Parks and Recreation Director Brian Andrews said the township will save $1.25 per 50-pound bag of soda ash this year with the cost reduction to $15.50 per bag. Chlorine costs rose slightly from $1.18 per gallon last year to $1.47 this year and hydrochloric acid increased by 50 cents per five-gallon container.

Still, Andrews noted that purchasing chemicals and supplies through the consortium has “saved the township a lot of money.”
