CONTINUATION PAGE

Below is the issue that we are having:

1. Question :Within the SOW, it states that “Remove all the shrubbery and trees from parking lot islands, stumps to be ground down, work required to be done after normal business hours or on the weekends”. There is some confusion within the PWs and the answers to the RFI. In the question #23 it was asked if ‘all trees and shrubs need to be removed from the parking lot islands and the answer was “No, all required services are to be performed within the scope, deliverables, and timelines outlined in the Statement of Work (SOW)”. Then question #24 it was asked if the “big pin oak trees in the parking lot islands need to be removed as well” and the answer was once again the same answer “NO”. These Pin Oaks are within the boundaries of the areas circled on the maps given in amendment 0002 and would be included in the term “ALL” used. Can the government give a more clarifying answer as to what you want in this requirement to include the specific number, type and size of the trees that are to be removed.

Answer: The responses to question 23 and 24 are correct, both are marked as “No.” This applies specifically to any trees or shrubbery that are diseased and causing the curb or sidewalk to lift or become displaced.

If this is not occurring, the islands should remain as they are, with the only action being to level or knock down the dirt as needed in order to apply mulch.
