PM signed awful snow contract

Hey all, I want to ask if you would sign this contract.

PM has a snow vendor who comes out to shovel if it snows more than 2". They charge us $250 per "push". Since we have 2 buildings (right next to each) the total is $500. So far this winter they've been "deployed" 3 times. Is this a fair price for snow removal? They don't cover parking spaces. Also, if you're familiar with Chicago, it's your standard 6-unit building, so imagine the sidewalk surrounding it. 

As if you needed more reason, the PM doesn't even verify they do the work. They just pay the invoices. We have had tenants shoveling snow the snow all along. 

What are some of your thoughts?

  • Is $250 per 'push' a fair price for snow removal for two 6-unit buildings in Chicago?

    While $250 per push is common, it is considered high by some, especially if not covering parking spaces or if tenants are shoveling themselves.
