This is an attachment to a landscape maintenance services solicitation issued by Sarasota County, Florida, specifically documenting lift station locations across the county's service areas. The file serves as a reference document identifying the 276 lift stations that are included among the approximately 201 county-owned and operated properties requiring landscape maintenance services under Invitation for Bids #262798MN. The solicitation was posted on February 10, 2026, with bids due by March 9, 2026. The county anticipates awarding up to four separate three-year contracts organized by geographic service zones, with a maximum of two zones per awarded bidder. Services include recurring turf, tree, shrub, and bed maintenance with varying frequencies (either weekly year-round or weekly April through October and bi-weekly November through March) performed during weekday or weekend hours as specified.

The procurement requires bidders to maintain valid Florida Commercial Restricted Use Pesticide Applicator Licenses in Categories 3, 6, and 21 and demonstrate verifiable experience within the past seven years in herbicide and pesticide application, turf care, and tree and shrub maintenance. Successful bidders must provide a performance bond of $50,000 per awarded zone and maintain comprehensive insurance including Workers' Compensation, Commercial General Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence, Business Automobile Liability of $1,000,000, and Pollution Liability coverage of $1,000,000. The county does not apply local or American business preferences due to grant funding requirements, eliminating set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises. No incumbent vendor information is disclosed in the solicitation materials. Qualified contractors must comply with Sarasota County's Integrated Pest Management standards and submit detailed proposals through the county's electronic procurement portal, OpenGov, with contractor responses to new asset requests required within ten calendar days.
