EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to award Invitation to Bid (ITB) No.14-6278RR for "Aquatic Maintenance
Support Services" to Vista Pools, Inc., to provide preventive as well as on-call maintenance and
repair support for County-owned and operated aquatic facilities. Estimated annual fiscal impact is
approximately$80,000.
OBJECTIVE:To maintain County-owned aquatic facilities in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Parks and Recreation Department manages three main aquatic facilities:
Golden Gate Community Park, Immokalee Sports Complex and Sun-n-Fun Lagoon Water Park; along
with two interactive water playground facilities at Eagle Lakes Community Park and Vineyards
Community Park.
Historically, the Department has utilized a preventive maintenance, plumbing and electrical contract as
well as quotes to service water park equipment. Staff has since determined that a contract covering both
the maintenance and repair service of all aquatic equipment would be more efficient and effective.
On July 8,2014,the Purchasing Department solicited bids for pool care vendors to provide services. The
solicitation was opened on July 18, 2014. A total of 199 notices were sent, 12 were downloaded, and 2
vendors submitted a bid.
Purchasing staff was able to validate the per pool/feature unit price based on the overall total cost
submitted by Vista Pools' bid submittal. TriCity Pools failed to provide a price for the preventive
maintenance program and was deemed non-responsive. Staff recommends award to the lowest responsive
qualified bidder Vista Pools,Inc.
FISCAL IMPACT: The annual estimated contract amount is approximately $80,000 and is budgeted
every fiscal year within various cost centers in General Fund(001)and MSTD General Fund(111).
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been approved as to form and legality and requires
majority vote for approval.-CMG
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management Plan related to
this action.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners awards Invitation to Bid (ITB)
No.14-6278RR for"Aquatic Maintenance Support Services"to Vista Pools,Inc.,to provide preventive as
well as on-call maintenance and repair support for County-owned and operated aquatic facilities.

11. Rejection and Waiver
The County reserves the right to reject any and all bids, to waive defects in the form of bid, also to
select the bid that best meets the requirements of the County.
Vendors whose bids, past performance or current status do not reflect the capability, integrity or
reliability to fully and in good faith perform the requirements denoted may be rejected as non-
responsive. Bids that do not meet all necessary requirements of this solicitation or fail to provide
all required information, documents or materials may be rejected as non-responsive.
12. Local Vendor Preference (LVP)
The County is using the Competitive Sealed Quotation methodology of source selection for this
procurement, as authorized by Ordinance Number 2013-69 establishing and adopting the Collier
County Purchasing Ordinance.
Local business means the vendor has a current Business Tax Receipt issued by the Collier
County Tax Collector for at least one year prior to bid or proposal submission to do business
within Collier County, and that identifies the business with a permanent physical business address
located within the limits of Collier County from which the vendor's staff operates and performs
business in an area zoned for the conduct of such business. A Post Office Box or a facility that
receives mail, or a non-permanent structure such as a construction trailer, storage shed, or other
non-permanent structure shall not be used for the purpose of establishing said physical address.
In addition to the foregoing, a vendor shall not be considered a "local business" unless it
contributes to the economic development and well-being of Collier County in a verifiable and
measurable way. This may include, but not be limited to, the retention and expansion of
employment opportunities, support and increase to the County's tax base, and residency of
employees and principals of the business within Collier County. Vendors shall affirm in writing their
compliance with the foregoing at the time of submitting their bid or proposal to be eligible for
consideration as a "local business" under this section. A vendor who misrepresents the Local
Preference status of its firm in a proposal or bid submitted to the County will lose the privilege to
claim Local Preference status for a period of up to one year.
ITB#14-6278R Aquatic Maintenance and Support Servic 12
Packet Page-1744-
9/9/2014 16.D.4.
Under this solicitation, bidders desiring to receive local preference will be invited and required to
affirmatively state and provide documentation as set forth in the solicitation in support of their
status as a local business. Any bidder who fails to submit sufficient documentation with their bid
offer shall not be granted local preference consideration for the purposes of that specific
contract award. Except where federal or state law, or any other funding source, mandates to the
contrary, Collier County and its agencies and instrumentalities, will give preference to local
businesses in the following manner.
Competitive bid (local price match option). Each formal competitive bid solicitation shall
clearly identify how the price order of the bids received will be evaluated and determined.
When a qualified and responsive, non-local business submits the lowest price bid, and the bid
submitted by one or more qualified and responsive local businesses is within ten percent of the
price submitted by the non-local business, then the local business with the apparent lowest bid
offer (i.e., the lowest local bidder) shall have the opportunity to submit an offer to match the
price(s), less one (1) dollar, offered by the overall lowest, qualified and responsive bidder. In
such instances, staff shall first verify if the lowest non-local bidder and the lowest local bidder
are in fact qualified and responsive bidders. Next, the Purchasing Department shall determine if
the lowest local bidder meets the requirements of Fla. Stat. Sec.287.087 (Preferences to
businesses with drug-free workplace programs). If the lowest local bidder meets the
requirements of Fla. Stat. Sec. 287.087, the Purchasing Department shall invite the lowest
local bidder to submit a matching offer, less one (1) dollar, within five (5) business days
thereafter. If the lowest local bidder submits an offer that fully matches the lowest bid, less
one (1) dollar, from the lowest non-local bidder tendered previously, then award shall be made
to the local bidder. If the lowest local bidder declines or is unable to match the lowest non-local
bid price(s), then award will be made to the lowest overall qualified and responsive bidder. If the
lowest local bidder does not meet the requirement of Fla. Stat. Sec 287.087, and the lowest
non-local bidder does, award will be made to the bidder that meets the requirements of the
reference state law.
Bidder must complete and submit with their bid response the Affidavit for Claiming Status as a
Local Business which is included as part of this solicitation.
Failure on the part of a Bidder to submit this Affidavit with their bid response will preclude
said Bidder from being considered for local preference on this solicitation.
A Bidder who misrepresents the Local Preference status of its firm in a bid submitted to the
County will lose the privilege to claim Local Preference status for a period of up to one (1) year.
The County may, as it deems necessary, conduct discussions with responsible bidders
determined to be in contention for being selected for award for the purpose of clarification to
assure full understanding of, and responsiveness to solicitation requirements.
13. Immigration Affidavit Certification
Statutes and executive orders require employers to abide by the immigration laws of the United
States and to employ only individuals who are eligible to work in the United States.
The Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify) operated by the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA), provides
an Internet-based means of verifying employment eligibility of workers in the United States; it is
not a substitute for any other employment eligibility verification requirements. The program will be
ITB#14-6278R Aquatic Maintenance and Support Servic 13
Packet Page-1745-
9/9/2014 16.D.4.

professional services and construction services.
Exceptions to the program:
• Commodity based procurement where no services are provided.
• Where the requirement for the affidavit is waived by the Board of County
Commissioners

of their enrollment, at the time of the submission of the vendor's/bidder's proposal. Acceptable
evidence consists of a copy of the properly completed E-Verify Company Profile page or a copy of
the fully executed E-Verify Memorandum of Understanding for the company. Vendors are also
required to provide the Collier County Purchasing Department an executed affidavit certifying they
shall comply with the E-Verify Program. The affidavit is attached to the solicitation documents. If
the BidderNendor does not comply with providing both the acceptable E-Verify evidence
and the executed affidavit the bidder's/vendor's proposal may be deemed non-responsive.
Additionally, vendors shall require all subcontracted vendors to use the E-Verify system for all
purchases not covered under the "Exceptions to the program" clause above.
For additional information regarding the Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify)
program visit the following website: http://www.dhs.00v/E-Verify. It shall be the vendor's
responsibility to familiarize themselves with all rules and regulations governing this program.
Vendor acknowledges, and without exception or stipulation, any firm(s) receiving an award shall
be fully responsible for complying with the provisions of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of
1986 as located at 8 U.S.C. 1324, et seq. and regulations relating thereto, as either may be
amended and with the provisions contained within this affidavit. Failure by the awarded firm(s) to
comply with the laws referenced herein or the provisions of this affidavit shall constitute a breach
of the award agreement and the County shall have the discretion to unilaterally terminate said
agreement immediately.
14. Lobbying

either individually or collectively about a project for which a firm has submitted a bid. Firms and
their agents are not to contact members of the County Commission for such purposes as

a vendor shall not be considered a "local business" unless it contributes to the economic

include, but not be limited to, the retention and expansion of employment opportunities, support
and increase to the County's tax base, and residency of employees and principals of the business
