About this file
This document contains previous mowing bid results from the City of Fitchburg, Wisconsin for median turf maintenance services across designated roadway areas. The City is soliciting proposals for a three-year median turf maintenance contract covering 2027, 2029, with work commencing the week of April 1, 2027, and concluding by November 1, 2029. The scope encompasses 19 designated mowing areas totaling approximately 484,340 square feet located along Fish Hatchery Road, McKee Road, Fitchrona Road, Lacy Road, and Nesbitt Road. Services include mowing, string trimming of medians and solid surface areas, grass height maintenance at a maximum of 3.5 inches (2.75 inches for final seasonal cut), removal of tree suckers, cleaning of solid surface medians, and debris removal. The mowing season runs mid-April through the end of October with an estimated 22 mowing cycles per year. Proposals are due by 11:00 a.m. on July 16, 2026, with a live Q&A session scheduled for July 9, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. via Microsoft Teams. Questions may be directed to Johren Frydenlund, Park & Forestry Maintenance Supervisor, at 608-729-1750.
The bidding structure requires contractors to submit a single price per mowing cycle applicable to all three contract years for all listed areas or selected areas, with separate unit prices for cost per visit and cost per square foot for potential additional areas. Historical bid data from 2021–2023 and 2024–2026 contracts are provided for reference, showing previous bids from Johnson Snow Removal, Prime Landscapes, and Alt's Operations. The City reserves the right to reject bids, add or delete maintenance areas during the contract term, and impose penalties of 20 percent deduction from contracted price for trimming deficiencies or 30 percent for cleanup deficiencies as determined by periodic inspections. Contractors must furnish all labor, materials, tools, equipment, and services and maintain comprehensive general liability insurance with minimum limits of $500,000 per occurrence, automobile liability of $500,000, and umbrella/excess liability coverage of $1,000,000, along with Wisconsin statutory workers' compensation insurance. Proposals may be mailed, delivered to Fitchburg City Hall, or submitted electronically via QuestCDN.
