This document is the specifications and bidding requirements for the City of Jackson, Michigan's street tree purchase and planting project (ENG 25-04C). The City seeks bids for furnishing, delivering, planting, maintaining, and guaranteeing approximately 200 street trees across a minimum of 15 tree species for spring 2027 planting season. Bid responses are due by Wednesday, September 30, 2026, by 10:00 AM, with contract award anticipated at the October 20, 2026 City Council meeting. Work must commence no earlier than April 1, 2027, with tree plantings to be completed by no later than June 18, 2027. Substantial completion and roadway approval for traffic is required by July 2, 2027. The contract includes an establishment period of one year following Engineer acceptance of tree planting work, during which the contractor must maintain tree health through watering, staking adjustments, and other necessary maintenance at no additional cost. The contract may be renewed for up to two additional planting seasons (Fall 2027 and Spring 2028) upon mutual agreement, with a cost-of-living adjustment of up to 3% for each renewal term. Final project completion, including punch list items and restored turf grass, must be achieved by October 31, 2029.

The project is funded by a USDA grant, requiring the successful bidder and all subcontractors to comply with Davis-Bacon Act requirements and prevailing wage standards as established by the U.S. Department of Labor Wage Decision.

Payment for each tree is a single unit price covering all costs associated with furnishing, transporting, and installing each tree in accordance with Section 815 of the 2020 MDOT Standard Specifications for Construction and the provided planting details. The contractor must provide certificates of insurance within ten days of award notification and must notify Michigan's utility locating service (Miss Dig) at least three full working days prior to any excavation. Failure to achieve the Substantial Completion milestone will result in liquidated damages assessed in accordance with MDOT specifications. Utility coordination and cooperation with other construction activities occurring within or adjacent to tree planting locations are required, with no additional compensation permitted for delays resulting from others' work.

Overlay Mixtures

Mixture Type Aggregate

Slump (inch) Air Content

Admixture Required

Mixture Proportions lb/yd³, dry weight

Cement(a) Dry Densified Silica Fume(b)

Net Mix Water Fine Agg

Coarse Agg

Latex Admixture

SFMC 2NS and 26A(c) 4–6 6.5 ±1.5% (d),(e),(f) 618 40 273(g) 1273 1601 —

LMC 2NS and 26A(c) (h) 4.5 ±1.5% — 658 — (h) 1490(i),(j) 1300(i),(j) 206

(a) Use only Type I Portland cement.

(b) For SFMC mixtures, the Contractor may use a blended silica fume Portland cement. However, if the silica fume content of the blended material is greater than 8% of the total cementitious material, submit to the Engineer modified mix proportions with Type I Portland cement added to the blended material to achieve the equivalent individual cementitious material mixture proportions.

(c) Provide coarse aggregate, 95% minimum crushed materials in accordance with Michigan Test Method (MTM) 117, with an absorption no greater than 2.5%, in accordance with AASHTO T85.

(d) Water-reducing high-range admixture or water-reducing high-range and retarding admixture.

(e) Virgin polypropylene collated fibers at 2 lb/yd³.

(f) Air-entraining admixture.

(g) Provide a net water to cementitious material ratio of 0.41 (cementitious material includes cement and silica fume).

(h) Add water in addition to water in the latex admixture to control slump to within 3 to 5 inches. Measure slump from 4 to 5 minutes after discharge from the mixer. During the waiting period, deposit concrete on the deck and do not disturb. If placing mixtures on sections within superelevated curves, the Contractor may need to use the lower allowable range of the slump requirement, as determined by the Engineer. Do not exceed water-cement ratio, by weight, of 0.30 including water contained in the latex emulsion.

(i) Aggregate proportions are approximate; due to gradation changes, the Contractor may increase proportions by no greater than 5% by weight of total aggregate if reducing coarse aggregate by an equivalent volume.

(j) Aggregate weights specified in the table are based on a dry bulk specific gravity of 2.65 for gravel and stone. Adjust the weights if the specific gravity of the materials used varies by more than 0.02 from the specified values.
