BrightView Maintenance has been selected by Colorado’s Town of Superior to maintain its park and recreation landscapes starting Jan. 1, 2020. The contract covers more than 630 acres of parks, green space, and open space, the Town of Superior, and its 35 miles of public trails.

The agreement includes sustainable landscaping maintenance and snow removal for the public grounds, parks, and walkways throughout the town.

BrightView is one of the nation’s largest users of zero-emission commercial landscaping equipment and also a leader in the use of state-of-the-art water conservation technology and innovative landscaping practices, such as green roof installations, LEED-certified landscape consulting, waste reduction programs, and xeriscaping.

“Being able to partner with the Town of Superior and provide sustainable landscaping is a point of pride for Brightview,” said Bradley Hill, BrightView Senior Branch Manager. “Our team is thrilled to not only provide green landscaping to some of the most stunning trails in Colorado, but to also make a lasting connection with this close-knit community.”

The Town of Superior was founded in 1896 and is believed named after the "superior" quality of coal found in the area. The stunning mountain-filled backdrop is enhanced by the vast public spaces and parks throughout the town.

“The Town of Superior is looking forward to working together with BrightView to serve all who live, work, and play in our community,” said Leslie Clark, Parks, Recreation and Open Space Director, Town of Superior.“ We believe BrightView and their people will provide us with the excellence we have become accustomed to, as well as propel us into the future of renewable energy and sustainability.”

About The Town of Superior:
The Town of Superior is a municipality of approximately 15,000 people located 22 miles northwest of Denver and 8 miles southwest of Boulder, Colorado. Incorporated in 1904 and named for the “superior” quality of the coal it produced in the local mine, the Town boasts a rich history. The Town now consists of four-square miles that include hundreds of acres of quality parks, open space and trails produced and maintained for the enjoyment of residents and visitors.

The University of California Merced campus, one of the nation’s leading public colleges, recently completed a four-year construction expansion. BrightView proudly provided landscape and site hardscape to this massive project, featured in the December issue of CalContractors Magazine.

The three-phase campus extension, which took place from October 2016 to June 2020, nearly doubled the size of UC Merced’s campus.

Lead by a P3 development team, Webcor Builders selected BrightView for the 1.2 million -square-foot campus. Webcor Builders is a premier commercial construction service provider known for its innovative and efficient approach, a wide range of experience, and cost-effective design-build methodology.

“BrightView assembled a great team for the UC Merced 2020 Project,” said Jacob Gliddon, Webcor Builders Site Project. “They exceeded all expectations and I look forward to working with them again in the future.”

UC Merced is a widely recognized campus for its commitment to environmental sustainability, an important priority during the campus expansion. BrightView provided more than 61 miles of drip irrigation instillation for a campus-wide water conservation effort. The work provided throughout the campus also included 805 trees, 41,000 shrubs, wetland and grassland hydroseeding, landscape drainage, and various campus-wide accommodations. BrightView also placed more than 500 cubic yards of soil each day.

While landscape development operations continued, campus life went on. To ensure the safety of all students and staff during the construction, BrightView provided safe pedestrian access during the various development phases.

“Safety was our number one concern as we concentrated on getting students and faculty to their newly built classrooms, dorms, cafeterias, and other facilities,” said Dustin Harter, BrightView Project Superintendent.

The work provided by BrightView Landscape Development on UC Merced also lead the team to win the 2018 United Contractors R.E.A.L. Safety Award for their three-year safety record without a loss day.

“I am extremely proud of BrightView’s design-build team members whom collaboratively partnered with Webcor Builders and the trade partner teams on this design-build to provide UC Merced with an incredible finished product,” said Skip Stevens, BrightView Landscape Development Vice President and General Manager.
