Jonathan Reynoso

Jonathan Reynoso serves as a Junior Landscape Designer within the Engineering Services agency of the City of Modesto, where he plays a pivotal role in the design and procurement of public landscape infrastructure. His responsibilities include developing site-specific hardscape and softscape plans for civic projects such as parks, plazas, and transportation corridors, ensuring alignment with municipal sustainability and accessibility standards. He collaborates closely with project managers and engineers to define scope requirements, evaluate design proposals, and support contract administration for landscape architecture and construction services. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to deliver resilient, high-functioning public spaces that enhance community livability and environmental stewardship. While no contractor data is currently available, Reynoso routinely engages with licensed landscape architects, civil engineering consultants, and specialized construction firms experienced in irrigation systems, native plant installation, and permeable hardscape materials. His working relationships emphasize technical compliance, design integrity, and adherence to Caltrans and City of Modesto public works standards. He typically collaborates with vendors who demonstrate proven experience in municipal landscape projects and possess certifications in sustainable landscaping practices. Reynoso’s procurement activities reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under no set-aside classifications. This indicates a focus on technical merit and value-based selection rather than socioeconomic preferences, though he remains compliant with all federal and state small business participation requirements. His approach prioritizes capability and performance over certification-based set-asides. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 541330 (Engineering Services), reflecting his involvement in integrated design-build landscape projects that combine civil engineering with ecological design. He procures services including site grading, stormwater management systems, ADA-compliant pathways, and drought-tolerant planting plans, demonstrating deep expertise in public-sector landscape engineering and sustainable infrastructure delivery.
