June 6, 2022 <br />City of Redwood City <br />ATTN: City Manager <br />1017 Middlefield Rd. <br />Redwood City, CA 94063 <br />Subject: Mosquito Abatement Services Agreement FY2022-2023, 2023-2024, and 2024-2025 <br />Dear Ms. Diaz: <br />Enclosed is the “Abatement Services Agreement” between our agencies for mosquito surveillance and control <br />activities by the District for the catch basin storm drain system in the developed areas of Redwood Shores. <br />The District will continue to limit the abatement billing to $55,000 and will absorb any costs that surpass this limit. <br />If, in the future, your city’s requirements change, we will address those needs in an updated contract at the <br />beginning of the next fiscal year to help avoid any budgetary problems. <br />The “Abatement Services Agreement” is designed to support unique mosquito control problems that cannot be <br />handled within the scope of this District’s normal program. It should be clearly understood that the residents of <br />Redwood City would continue to receive the same previous level of public health service, in addition to the extra <br />service provided by this agree ment. District personnel will advise the property owner if mosquito breeding habitat <br />can be eliminated without the use of pesticides. District personnel will continue to respond to service requests on a <br />daily basis and to make routine inspections of numerous mosquito sources found in lagoons, marshes, fish ponds, <br />utility vaults, impounded waters and other fresh water sources. Appropriate action will be taken to control or <br />eliminate these mosquito problems, as they are located. Any questions regarding the treatment program should be <br />directed to Casey Stevenson, Operations Director. <br />This District operates pursuant to the statutory laws relating to mosquito abatement and pest abatement districts in <br />California Health and Safety Code, Division 3, Chapter 1, Section 2000 – 2093, inclusive. Please sign, date and <br />return the original copy of the “Abatement Services Agreement” to the San Mateo County Mosquito and Vector <br />Control District. <br />Sincerely, <br />Brian Weber <br />District Manager <br />cc: Public Works Services Dept., City of Redwood City 1400 Broadway, Redwood City, CA 94063 <br />REV: 06-21-22 RL <br />ATTY/AGR.2022.159/SMC Mosquito & Vector Control District (Mosquito Abatement Services) (Page 1 of 2)
