About this file
This document is Addendum #1 for Invitation to Bid (ITB#WRS/250504) issued by the City of Ocala for Grounds Maintenance Services at the Wetlands Groundwater Recharge Park. The addendum provides additional details and clarifications for potential contractors, including specific access and parking instructions, requirements for mowing to the water's edge, initial service line item expectations, and modifications to the annual cutting schedule. Contractors must enter through a rolling gate at the park's northwest corner, use a provided City of Ocala Master Lock key, and stage equipment on the center dirt path called "Broadway". The initial service requires removing vines from the fence, cleaning the north side of the property, and preparing the water's edge for maintenance.
The addendum specifies 32 total cuts per year, with 26 weeks during the rainy season and 6 weeks during the dry season. A detailed monthly breakdown shows which months will receive maintenance cuts, indicating a seasonally adjusted approach to grounds maintenance. The mowing specifications include maintaining the water's edge and preserving 1-inch diameter trees and large growth near the water. The project covers approximately 60 acres, with around 30 acres of grassy areas requiring regular mowing and trimming services. Contractors are expected to provide all necessary materials, labor, supervision, tools, equipment, and resources to complete the maintenance services effectively.
