The City of Boynton Beach is soliciting proposals for landscape maintenance and irrigation inspection and maintenance services for designated rights-of-way areas, with proposals due August 13, 2026 at 3:00 PM. A non-mandatory pre-proposal conference is scheduled for July 21, 2026 at 10:00 AM in Room 115 of City Hall.

Contractors must be in business for at least five years with relevant landscape maintenance experience, possess a certified arborist on staff, and hold appropriate state or county licenses. For irrigation services, contractors must hold either a valid Palm Beach County Certificate of Competency for Irrigation/Sprinkler Contractors or a State of Florida Irrigation License. Insurance requirements include Commercial General Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence, Contractors Pollution Liability of $1,000,000 per claim, Business Automobile Liability of $1,000,000 combined single limit, and Workers' Compensation per Florida Statute Chapter 440 with Employer's Liability of at least $1,000,000 per accident. Contractors must comply with E-Verify requirements, provide evidence of financial qualifications, and furnish a minimum of five references with at least three from the government sector.

The scope encompasses furnishing all equipment, materials, tools, labor, necessary supervision, and incidentals to provide landscape maintenance and irrigation inspection and maintenance. Service quality and workmanship are primary evaluation concerns. Work is performed during normal business hours (8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday). The contractor operates as an independent contractor, not an employee of the City.

Questions are due August 3, 2026 at 3:00 PM. The anticipated City Commission award date is September 22, 2026. Proposals remain firm for acceptance for 120 calendar days after closing. Pricing is submitted in U.S. dollars through the online e-procurement system, with payment due within 30 days of receipt of a properly submitted invoice.
