Lofty Lawns (graded)
(TCO 1) Larry Land establishes a landscaping business under the name "Lofty Lawns." The business handles lawn care and seasonal flowers for apartment complexes, condominium associations, and homeowner associations. Larry wants to keep labor costs, legal liability, and administrative paperwork to a minimum. When he hires groundskeepers, he requires them to sign an "independent contractor" agreement that acknowledges they are independent contractors, not employees. He does not require that they be incorporated or have experience. He provides a free 1-day training seminar on lawn care "the lofty lawn way" to all his workers. He requires them to buy their own white truck and to buy from him (at cost) the trim package that says "Lofty Lawns" on the side and back of the truck. He requires them to maintain their own vehicle liability insurance (and show proof of insurance), and to pay for their own gas and truck maintenance. Lofty Lawn provides all the mowers, leaf blowers, and other landscaping equipment.
