All other storm damage will be attended to as soon as possible. Horticulture Services RPCA will provide maintenance of landscaping areas per selected level of service indicated below (refer to aerial images per school/facility). Any increase to landscape areas or additional services (such as new plantings, not replacements) requested by ACPS over and above that which is documented in this MOU will be separately funded by ACPS.

ACPS is responsible to provide capital investment to improve ACPS fields where and when it has been determined (by ACPS/RPCA mutual consent) that the field has deteriorated to a condition wherein user safety is compromised.
