This is a price proposal exhibit for ITB REC/260749 issued by the City of Ocala, Florida Parks Department for palm tree inoculation and canopy tree services. The City of Ocala seeks a qualified vendor to provide professional palm inoculation services and Cambistat treatments to protect trees from Lethal Bronzing Disease and enhance the health and longevity of the urban forest across parks, public landscapes, Downtown, the North Magnolia corridor, and the Ocala Golf Club. The contract encompasses three pricing line items: inoculation of palm trees using OTC-HCI treatment performed quarterly at 5 ml per treatment, Cambistat treatments billed per inch of tree diameter, and testing services with an estimated annual quantity of 15 trees. The initial contract term is three years with two optional one-year renewal periods. Bidders must be licensed as a Certified Arborist in Florida and possess a minimum of two years' experience in providing inoculation and Cambistat treatments on trees.

The price proposal form requires bidders to enter their company name and office location, then provide unit costs and extended costs for each of the three service line items to calculate a total bid amount. The form does not specify estimated annual quantities for the inoculation treatments or Cambistat services, indicating these may be ordered on an as-needed basis throughout the contract term. No pricing information, set-asides, incumbent vendor data, funding amounts, or other financial details are provided in this exhibit; bidders are responsible for developing and submitting their own cost proposals based on their understanding of the City's requirements and service delivery methodology.
