Answer

It is really not necessary to say "с тобой". You may say it or not.

Answer

Давай-is the form of imperative mood for only 2 person, single number. it is the form of imperative mood for pronoun "Ты" 
Давай встретимся (с кем?)  с тобой 
If it were for plural, the imperative will sound  Давайте.

Answer

Your made it much more clear for me, thank you so much.

Answer

You are right. The's a bit of redundancy in this case. The meaning is absolutly clear without "с тобой". I would call it an intensifier.

Besides, there can be situations when "Давай встретимся весной" doesn't mean meet JUST you in spring. For example:
-Когда мы встретимся с Сергеем?
-Хмм.. Давай встретимся (с ним) весной.
But this meaning will come clear from the context. So it's not crucial.
