As the new Oak Creek City Hall, library and fire station complex is in the final stages of completion, one of the last items to bid is landscaping enhancements.

The city has just released a bid request for supplying trees, shrubs and native herbaceous plant material for the complex. The request calls for about 100 trees, 360 shrubs and 1,840 native plants and plant cultivars.

Bids are due in the city clerk’s office at 2:30 p.m. Nov. 13. Specifications can be viewed on the city’s website.
