| Abstract/Contents: | Del Conte, Landscape and Irrigation's 1993 Man of the Year finds connections, sniffs out new technology and operating procedures, discovers unique applications, and adapts them to his business needs. Del Conte's Landscaping, Inc., a landscape construction and maintenance firm, has grown from a one-man rototilling operation to a thriving business with 42 full-time employees and two subsidiaries- an irrigation management company and, more recently, a greenwaste recycling operation. As a member or the Associated Landscape Contractors of America and current president of the Northern California Turf and Landscape Council, "Tom has directed the reinvestment of the organization's research and scholarships funds to increase yields, implemented a membership drive that has brought membership to an all-time high, expanded the yearly NCTLC exposition to a cooperative effort with four other organizations and chaired the recent annual Field Day at Golden Gate and Candlestick Parks." |
