Agenda 06/12/2018 Item #16A1306/12/2018
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to award ITB No. 18-7256 “Golden Gate Parkway & I-75 Interchange Landscape
Maintenance” to Florida Land Maintenance, Inc. d/b/a Commercial Land Maintenance.
OBJECTIVE: To award a contract for approximately two (2) miles of landscape and irrigation
maintenance for the Golden Gate Parkway & I-75 Interchange from 66th Street SW to 60th Street SW.
CONSIDERATION: On January 22, 2018, the Procurement Services Division released notices of
Invitation to Bid No. 18-7256 to 5,449 vendors for Golden Gate Pkwy & I-75 Interchange Landscape
Maintenance. Vendors downloaded fifty-seven (57) bid packages, and the County received three (3) bids
by February 21, 2018. Procurement staff determined the lowest, responsive and responsible bidder to be
Florida Land Maintenance Inc.
Following review of the bid tabulations and qualifications, staff recommends removing line item number
35 from the final award. That line item was not structured properly in the solicitation, due to the wrong
quantity type being utilized. Thereafter, staff revised the total bid tabulation, deducting each vendor offer
for that item. Removal of that line item did not effect the outcome of the lowest bidder, which is
summarized below:
Vendor Bid
Florida Land Maintenance, Inc. d/b/a Commercial Land Maintenance $ 180,393.00
Superior Landscaping & Lawn Service, Inc. $ 257,788.85
Hannula Landscaping & Irrigation, Inc. $ 343,015.43
Staff recommends award to Florida Land Maintenance, Inc. d/b/a Commercial Land Maintenance.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for these services is budgeted annually within the Landscape Maintenance
Operations section of the Road & Bridge Maintenance Division fund center. Source of funds is
Unincorporated General Fund (111) ad valorem.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and requires majority
vote for Board approval. -SRT
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management Impact associated with this
Executive Summary.
RECOMMENDATION: To award ITB No. 18-7256 “Golden Gate Parkway & I-75 Interchange

Institute of Food and Agriculture Services (UF/IFAS) and the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) for
these services.
a.Must have knowledge and experience in the hard wood canopy, palm pruning, fertilization, support
systems, and other aspects of tree care with the ability to recognize, diagnose and report tree defects caused
by pest, tree and root structure, and diseases.
b.Must adhere to ANSI accredited Standards A300 policies and standards, current edition,
c.Florida Certified Arborist on staff to supervise and direct field personnel to ensure that work is completed
per specifications to include, but not limited to, palm and tree maintenance services, tree and palm planting
and staking, stump, and root grinding.
d.ISA Best Management Practices
e.Seven main objectives for pruning services are: 1) reduce the risk of failure; 2) provide clearance; 3)
reduce shade and wind resistance; 4) maintain health; 5) influence flower and fruit production; 6) improve
views; and 7) improve aesthetics.
1.2.1. Tree and Palm Maintenance is divided into four (4) categories: 1. Basic Tree Pruning; 2. Structural Tree
Pruning; 3. Palm Pruning; 4. Stump and Root Grinding.
1.2.1.1. Category 1. Basic Tree Pruning
In accordance with ISA Best Management Practices, this category is divided into four (4)
primary pruning methods which include: a. Cleaning, b. Thinning, c. Raising, and d.
Reducing.
a.Cleaning
Cleaning trees is the selective removal of dead, diseased, cracked, stubbed, hanging, and
broken branches. This service can be performed on trees of any age but is most common
on middle-aged and mature trees. This is the preferred method for mature trees because it
does not remove live branches unnecessarily. The removal location of branches requires
review and approval with Division’s Landscape Supervisor.
b.Thinning
Pruning is the selective removal of small live branches to reduce crown density. Proper
thinning retains the crown shape and size and should provide an even distribution of
foliage throughout the crown.
i.Thinning includes removing dead or broken limbs one inch (1”) in diameter or larger;
if two (2) limbs are crowning or touching each other, shorten or remove one of them;
originate within twelve inches (12”) of each other on the trunk, shorten or remove one
of them.
ii.Use directional pruning, so future growth is directed away from the roadway,
sidewalk, building, street lights, or possible obstruction.
iii.Thinning increases the sunlight penetration and air movement throughout the crown
and with increased light and air stimulate, it aids in maintaining interior foliage.
iv.No excessive branch removal on the lower two-thirds (2/3) of a branch or stem (lion
tailing). This may cause adverse affects on the tree and is not an acceptable practice.
v.Thinning crown requires approval by Division Landscape Supervisor, and the
percentage of foliage must be specified. The removal percentage is between ten-
fifteen percent (10%-15%) percent, and should not exceed 25 percent (25%) of the
foliage when using pruning to thin methods.
c.Raising
Pruning to raise, elevate, or lift tree canopy by selective removal of branches to provide
vertical clearance.

i.Crown raising shortens or removes lower branches of a tree to provide clearance for
buildings, signs, vehicles, pedestrians, and vistas. Live crown to clear trunk ratio
should be no less than 50 percent when raising is completed.
ii.Structural pruning should be considered with raising according to ANSI standards.
When raising, the desired clearance should be specified by Division Landscape
Supervisor.
iii.Branches over paved areas should be shortened or removed to allow approximately
ten foot (10’) over sidewalks, sixteen feet (16’) over travel lanes, or clearances
specified by Division Landscape Supervisor.
iv.Over landscape areas and sidewalks, limbs should be shortened or removed to allow
for pedestrian and utility use.
v.Trees within planting beds, an eight foot (8’) clearance is required or as directed by
the Division Landscape Supervisor.
vi.Shortening of branching is the desired method of attaining adequate clearance.
vii.When pruning is completed, approximately one-half (1/3) of the foliage should
originate from branches on the lower two-thirds (2/3) of each tree.
d.Reducing
Pruning to reduce is the selective removal of branches and stems to decrease the height
and/or spread of a tree or shrub.
i.This type of pruning is done to minimize the risk of failure, to reduce height or
spread, for utility line clearance, to clear vegetation from buildings, or structures, or
to improve the appearance of the plant. Portions of the crown, such as individual
limbs, can be reduced to balance the canopy, provide clearance, or reduce the
likelihood of breakage on limbs with defects. Occasionally, the entire crown is
reduced.
ii.Reducing or thinning should be considered if cabling would be performed. Crown
reduction should be accomplished with reduction cuts, not heading cuts.
1.2.1.2. Category 2. Structural Tree Pruning
Structural tree pruning is the removal of live branches and stems to influence orientation,
spacing, growth rate, the strength of attachment, and ultimate size of branches and stems.
The removal percentage is between 25 – 50 percent depending on the tree type.
Structural pruning includes basic tree pruning techniques listed below.
Note: Refer to Best Management Practices “Tree Pruning” (Revised 2008) Companion
Publication to ANSI A300 Part I: Tree, Shrub, and Other Woody Plant Maintenance-
Standard Practices, Pruning: page 12 Figure 7. “Structural Pruning of a Small Tree” and
Figure 8. ”Structural Pruning to be done to ensure more sustainable growth patterns.”
a.It is used on young and medium-aged trees to help engineer a sustainable trunk and
branch arrangement. Pruning large-maturing trees such as oaks reduce certain defects
and spaces main branching along one dominant trunk.
b.One goal is to reduce the number of trunks so that a tree has a dominant leader
extending well up into the crown creating a strong crown and durable form.
c.Subordination can reduce branches, so they remain smaller than about half the trunk
diameter, which helps prevent structural failure later. The subordinate or co-
dominant stems are removed with structural pruning.
d.The primar y objective insubordination (shortening using a drop-crotch cut) is the
removal of one side of a codominant leader.
i.Branches, trunks, or leaders not considered the main leader, two inches (2”)
diameter or as determined by the Project Manager or designee should be
subordinated or removed.
16.A.13.f

ITB #18-7256 Golden Gate Parkway & I-75 Interchange Landscape Maintenance
11
ii. The main leader shall not be subordinated or removed. Codominant leaders are
considered to be two or more branches, trunks, or leaders of approximately the
same size, originating near one another.
iii. If there is no stem considerably larger than others, then this would be
appropriate to subordinate all but one of them. Division Landscape Supervisor
approval where there is an included bark as part of the condition, preference
should be given to the removal of one side.
1.2.1.3. Category 3. Palm Pruning
Remove fronds, flowers, fruit, stems, or loose petioles that may create hazardous
conditions. Palms may be pruned for aesthetic reasons to eliminate sprouts and stems or
dead fronds and seed pods.
a. Live healthy fronds should not be removed. If they must be removed avoid removing
those that initiate above horizontal. Fronds removed should be severed close to the
petiole base without damaging living trunk tissue.
b. Only those fronds with petiole drooping below horizontal 9:00-3:00 position should
be removed. Remove seed pods including those originating among remaining
fronds. When removing fronds and seedpods, care should be taken, so those frond
that are to remain are not nicked or wounded.
c. Climbing spikes shall not be used to climb palms for pruning.
1.2.1.4. Category 4. Stump and Root Grinding
Contractor must have technical knowledge, ability, and experience in grinding of stumps
and roots to remove the root system and stump.
1.2.1.5. Root Management
Must possess a thorough knowledge and experience in root management, to include but
not limited to air spade, structural pruning, diagnosis, and root management program.
1.2.1.6. Palm Management
Contractor shall have the knowledge and ability to treat palm diseases through drenches,
foliar sprays, injection methods, and provide a fertilization program for palms.
1.2.1.7. Tree Relocation
Periodically, the County must relocate palms and trees within Collier County limits.
Contractor must have the knowledge and ability to root prune the tree(s) before
relocation. In most cases, Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) will be required in order to
perform this work safely. Most in-depth information will be provided at the time that
services are needed.
1.2.2. Fertilization
Follow UF/IFAS guidelines for turfgrass fertilization. Contractor/subcontractor must have valid licenses
issued by Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services for Limited Urban Commercial
Fertilizer Applicator Certification (FDACS LUFAC).
a. Provide fertilization services four (4) times a year in March, June, September, and December. Only
twice (2) a year if using six (6) month application rate.
b. Contractor shall ensure that fertilization scheduling does not exceed the fertilizer label rate prescribed
and complies with state and local ordinances. It is important to note that local fertilizer regulations may
prohibit the use of nitrogen fertilizers during the summer months.
c. Division Representative may request additional fertilizer applications at any time.
d. Applied at a rate of 1.5 lbs. per 100 square feet.
e. Broadcasted throughout the median planting beds and turf areas.
f. All tree pit areas should be fertilized evenly.

g.No fertilizer ring around trees under any circumstances. If a ring is formed, contractor/subcontractor is
required to return to the site and spread the fertilizer correcting the situation at their expense. This may
include contractor/subcontractor purchasing additional fertilizer because applied fertilizer may not be
able to spread.
h.Fertilizer is purchased by Collier County under an Annual Contract and coordinated with the
Contractor for delivery purposes.
i.Immediately remove fertilizers from curbs and sidewalk areas to avoid staining.
1.2.2.1. Fertilization Applications
Contractor/subcontractor shall use deflector shields on all application equipment to minimize
the inadvertent application of fertilizer on non-plant areas. Contractor shall blow, sweep, or
wash back into the landscape any fertilizer deposited on paved or impervious surfaces.
a.Use “Ring of Responsibility” around or along the shoreline of canals, lakes, or
waterways.
b.Ensure fertilizers and other lawn chemicals do not come into direct contact with the
water.
c.Apply fertilizer only when plants are actively growing.
d.Clean up spilled fertilizer materials immediately as per University of Florida IFAS
recommendations.
e.Store nitrate-based fertilizers separately from solvents, fuels, and pesticides, because
nitrate fertilizers are oxidants and can accelerate a fire.
f.After fertilizing (other than when watering restrictions apply), irrigate with at least a
quarter inch (1/4”) of water following fertilization to avoid the loss of nitrogen and
increase uptake efficiency. If water restrictions apply, the contractor may irrigate as
permitted but no more than one-half inch (1/2”) following fertilization.
g.Do not exceed the annual nitrogen recommendations in the Fertilizer Guidelines for
Established Turfgrass Lawns in Three Regions of Florida as provided on the label.
1.2.2.2. Bed, Tree, Shrub, Palm, Flower, Groundcover Fertilization
If landscape plants show nutrient deficient symptoms, the Division Landscape Supervisor
shall be notified within forty-eight (48) hours for appropriate action and approval to treat
the materials to maintain plant health.
a.Broadcast fertilizer uniformly over all the landscaped areas, and consider root
location, fertilization objectives, and plant species when applying fertilizer.
b.In areas where tree or shrub fertilization zones overlap with lawn fertilization zones,
contractor shall fertilize one or the other of the plant types, but not both.
1.2.2.3. Palm Fertilization
Palms have different nutritional requirements from other landscape plants. They suffer
quickly and conspicuously from inadequate mineral nutrition, whether due to insufficient
or incorrect fertilization. Division’s Landscape Supervisor will provide the fertilization
schedule.
Note: Fertilize palms with a granular slow-release fertilizer three to four times per year.
An acceptable formulation is 8-0-12-4 (N, P, K, Mg plus micro-elements).
1.2.2.4. Turf Fertilization
Notify Division Landscape Supervisor of any plant or turfgrass nutrient deficiency
symptoms and provide the recommended measures for correction.
a.Treat deficiencies of specific nutrients with applications of the lacking nutrient in
accordance with University of Florida IFAS recommendations until deficiencies are

satisfaction of the County's project manager before payment for the fixed price contract
is authorized.
N Time and Materials: The County agrees to pay the contractor for the amount of labor
time spent by the contractor's employees and subcontractors to perform the work (number
of hours times hourly rate), and for materials and equipment used in the project (cost of
materials plus the contractor's markup). This methodology is generally used in projects in
which it is not possible to accurately estimate the size of the project, or when it is expected
that the project requirements would most likely change. As a general business practice,
these contracts include back-up documentation of costs; invoices would include number
of hours worked and billing rate by position (and not company (or subcontractor)
timekeeping or payroll records), material or equipment invoices, and other reimbursable
documentation for the project.
N Unit Price: The County agrees to pay a firm total fixed price (inclusive of all costs,
including labor, materials, equipment, overhead, etc.) for a repetitive product or service
delivered (i.e. installation price per ton, delivery price per package or carton, etc.). The
invoice must identify the unit price and the number of units received (no contractor
inventory or cost verification).

sufficient funds are included in their budget(s).

receipt and approval of invoices submitted an the date of services or within six (G) months
after completion of the Agreement. Any untimely submission of invoices beyond the

c, Florida Certified Arborist ❑n staff to supervise and direct field personnel to ensure that work is completed
per specifications to include, but not limited to, palm and tree maintenance services, tree and palm planting
and staking. stump, and root grinding.
d. ISA Best Management Practices
e. Seven main objectives for pruning services are; i ) reduce the risk of failure; 2) provide clearance; 3)
reduce shade and wind resistance; 4) maintain health; 5) influence flower and fruit production; d) improve
views; and 7) improve aesthetics,
1.2.1. 'C"rce and Palm Maintenance is divided into four (4) categories; I. Basic Tree Pruning; 2, Structw'al Tree
Pruning; 3. Palm Pruning; 4. Stump and Root Grinding.
1,2,1,1, Category 1, Basic Tim Pruning
In accordance with ISA Best Management Practices, this category is divided into four (4)
primary pruning methods which include: a. Cleaning, b. Thinning, c. Raising, and d.
Reducing.
a. Cleartine
Cleaning trees is the selective removal ordead, diseased, cracked, stubbed, hanging, and
broken branches. This service can be performed on trees ofnny age but is most common
on middle-aged and mature trees. This is the preferred method for mature trees because it
does not remove live branches unnecessarily. The removal location of branches requires
review and approval with Division's Landscape Supervisor.
b, Thinning
Pruning is the selective removal ofsmall live branches to reduce crown density. Proper
thinning retains the crown shape and size and should provide an even distribution of
foliage throughout the crown,
i. 'Thinning includes removing dead or broken limbs one inch (1 ") in diameter or larger;
if two (2) limbs are cro caning or touching each other, shorten or remove one of them;
originate within twelve inches (12") of each other on the trunk, shorten or remove one
of them,
ii. Use directional pruning, so future growth is directed away from the roadway,
sidewalk, building, street lights, or possible obstruction.
iii, Thinning increases the sunlight penetration and air movement throughout the crown
and with increased light and air stimulate, it aids in maintaining interior roliage,
Iv. No excessive branch removal on the lower two-thirds (213) of a brunch or stem (lion
tailing). This may cause adverse afTects on the tree and is not an acceptable practice.
v, Thinning crown requires approval by Division Landscape Supervisor, and the
percentage orfoliage must be specified, The removal percentage is between (on -
fifteen percent (10%-15%) percent, and should not exceed 25 percent (25%) of the
foliage when using pruning to thin methods.
c. Raisin
Pruning to raise, elevate, or lift tree canopy by selective removal of branches to provide
vertical clearance,
ITR 418-7256 Golden Gate Parkway & 1-75 Interelimge Landscape Maintenance
9
i. Crown raising shortens or removes lover branches of tree to provide clearance Far
buildings, signs, vehicles, pedestrians, and vistas. Live crown to clear trunk ratio
should be no less than 50 percent when raising is completed.
ii. Structural pruning should be considered with raising according to ANSL standards.
When raising, the desired clearance should be specified by Division Landscape
Supervisor.
iii. Branches over paved areas should be shortened or removed to allow approximately
Len foot (10') over sidewalks, sixteen feet (1 G') over travel lanes, or clearances
specified by Division Landscape Supervisor.
iv. Over landscape areas and sidewalks, limbs should be shortened or removed to allow
for pedestrian and utility use.
v. Trees within planting beds, an eight foot (S') clearance is required or as directed by
the Division Landscape Supervisor.
A, Shortening of branching is the desired method of attaining adequate clearance.
vii. When pruning is completed, approximately one-half (1/3) of the foliage should
originate from branches on the lower two-thirds (213) of each tree.
d. Reducing.
Pruning to reduce is the selective re moval of branches and stems to decrease the height
andlor spread of tree or shrub.
i. This type of pruning is done to minimize the risk of failure, to reduce height or
spread, for utility line clearance, to clear vegetation from buildings, or structures, Ot-
to
rto improve the appearance of the plant. Portions of the crown, such as individual
limbs, can be red uced to balance the canopy. provide clearance, or reduce the
likelihood of breakage on limbs with defects. Occasionally, the entire crown is
reduced.
ii. Iteducing or thinning should be considered if cabling would be performed. Crown
reduction should be accomplished with reduction cuts, not heading cuts.
1.2.1.2. Category 2. Structural Tru Prunin
Structural tree pruning is the removal of live branches and stems to influence orientation,
spacing, growth rate, the strength of attachment, and ultimate size of branches and stems.
The removal percentage is between 25 — 50 percent depending on the tree type.
Structural pruning includes basic tree pruning techniques listed below.
Note; Refer to Best Management Practices "Tree Pruning" (Revised 2008) Companion
Publication to ANSI A300 Part 1, "free, Shrub, and tither Woody Plant Maintenance -
Standard Psettees, Pruning; page 12 Figure 7. "Structural Pruning of a Small Tree" and
Figure S. "Structural Pruning to be done to ensure more sustainable growth patterns."
a. It is used on young and medium -aged trees to help engineer a sustainable trunk and
branch arrangement. Pruning large -maturing trees such as oaks reduce certain defects
and spaces main branching along one dominant trunk.
b. One goal is to reduce the number of trunks so that a tree has a dominant leader
extending well up into the crown creating a strong crown and durable form.
c. Subordination can reduce branches, so they remain smaller than about half the trunk
diameter, which helps prevent structural failure later. The subordinate or co-
dominant stems are removed with structural pruning.
d. The primary objective insubordination (shormning using a drop -crotch cut) is the
removal of one side of a codominant leader.
L Branches, trunks, or leaders not considered the main leader, two inches (2")
diameter or as determined by the Project Manager or designee should be
subordinated or removed.
ITB #19-7256 Golden Gate Parkway & I-75 Interchange Landscape, Maintenance
10
(S
H. The main leader shall not be subordinated or removed, Codominant leaders are
considered to be two or more branches, trunks, or leaders of -approximately the
same size, originating near one another.
iii. If there is no stem considerably larger than others, then this would be
appropriate to subordinate all but one of them. Division Landscape Supervisor
approval where there is an included bark as part of the condition, preference
should be given to the removal of one side.
1,2.1.3. Category 3. -Palm Pruning
Remove fronds, flowers, fruit, stems, or loose petioles that may create hazardous
conditions. Palms may be pruned for aesthetic reasons to eliminate sprouts and sterns or
dead fronds and seed pods.
a. Live healthy fronds should not be removed. If they must be removed avoid removing
those that initiate above horizontal. Fronds removed should he severed close to the
petiole base without damaging living trunk tissue.
b. Only those fronds with petiole drooping below horizontal 9:00-3:00 position should
be removed. Remove seed pods including those originating among remaining
fronds. When removing fronds and seedpods, care should be taken, so those frond
that are to remain are not nicked or wounded.
c. Climbing spikes shall not be used to climb palms far pruning.

THE CONDITION OF THIS BOND is that if Principal:

any default by Principal under the Contract, including, but not limited to, all delay damages, whether

The Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no changes, extensions of time,
alterations or additions to the terms of the Contract or other work to be performed hereunder, or the specifications
referred to therein shall in anywise affect its obligations under this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of any
such changes, extensions of time, alternations or additions to the terms of the Contract or to work or to the
specifications.
This instrument shall be construed in all respects as a common law bond. It is expressly understood that
the time provisions and statute of limitations under Section 255.05, Florida Statutes, shall not apply to this bond.
In no event will the Surety be liable in the aggregate to Oblige for more than the penal sum of this
Performance bond regardless of the number of suits that may be filed by Oblige.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the above parties have executed this instrument this day
