The recommended award is based on the lowest total bid by a single bidder. Staff reviewed the bids received and
determined that three of the bidders were responsive and responsible. J-MAC Cleaning Services Inc. did not submit
the required documents and was deemed non -responsive. Staff concluded that Ground Zero Landscaping Services,
Inc. ("Ground Zero") is the lowest, responsive, and responsible bidder. Ground Zero has over 20 years of
experience in Landscaping Services and has been doing business with Collier County since 2013. The bid covers
land area approximately 10% more than the existing contract, yet Ground Zero's bid is just 6% higher than the
existing contract and is well within the projected budget amount.
On September 1, 2022, the Vanderbilt Beach Beautification MSTU Advisory Board voted unanimously to endorse
the recommended bid award to Ground Zero Landscaping Service, Inc. Staff recommends the award of the base
bid plus the alternates to Ground Zero Landscaping Services, Inc. for a total base bid of $55,350.50.
The existing Agreement #17-7206 for "Vanderbilt Beach MSTU Roadway Landscape Maintenance" expires on
February 26, 2023, so the attached proposed Agreement #22-8004 has an effective date of February 27, 2023.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding is available within Vanderbilt Beach MSTU Fund (143) for FY23 landscape
maintenance services provided under this agreement. Funds for landscape maintenance services are budgeted
annually.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management Impact associated with this Executive
Summary.
