This document is an installation schedule for the City of Ocala's Holiday Lighting Services contract (ITB #REC/250674), detailing six consecutive years of event and lighting logistics from 2025 to 2030. The schedule outlines specific dates for the annual Light Up Ocala Event, which occurs on a Saturday in November each year, with corresponding test lighting installation deadlines on the preceding Wednesday. The tree installation timeframe spans approximately four to five days in mid-November, and each year's decorations are required to be removed by the Friday before Martin Luther King Jr. Day of the following year.

The installation schedule provides a structured, multi-year approach to holiday lighting services, demonstrating the city's commitment to a consistent and long-term holiday decoration strategy. The document shows precise planning, with each year's event dates and installation windows carefully mapped out, which suggests a methodical procurement approach that allows vendors to plan and prepare well in advance. The consistent pattern of dates indicates the city's intention to create a reliable, repeatable process for holiday lighting that can be executed with minimal variation year to year.
