Change Orders
Change orders or amendments to landscaping contracts and subcontracts will be required. They shall identify the scope of the change or amendment, be agreed to by both parties, and be in writing. This does not require signatures by both parties, but does require a written agreement. A text or an e-mail from both parties stating agreement is acceptable.
Contract Requirements
The minimum contract standards will now require a general description of the materials to be installed. Previously the only requirement for materials to be listed was a listing of plant materials. This amendment requires a general description of allmaterials.
Another new requirement effective January 1, 2012 is if subcontractors will be used for the performance of landscaping work, the contract must include a statement notifying the consumer that there will be subcontractors used to perform landscaping work.
