SPECIFICATIONS AND/OR SCOPE OF WORK AND PROPOSED PRICING: REQUEST FOR ENFORCEMENT SERVICES MOWING AND/OR SPRAYING WELD COUNTY COLORADO - COUNTY WIDE PROJECT LOCATIONS B1900035 8 Purpose Weld County is soliciting bids from qualified consultants for contractual services of mowing and/or spraying in Weld County. Two separate bids are included in this contract. These bids are for mowing, and private parcel spraying. II. Scope of Services The Weed Division of the Weld County Public Works Department manages the noxious weed control program for Weld County, Colorado. The weed control program was established under the Colorado Weed Management Act, Section 35-5.5-101, et. seq., CRS, and Weld County Code, Chapter 15. Both laws provide the right to enforce weed control measures on negligent landowners if all of the appropriate steps have been followed. A. General Project Description The Weed Division will carry out enforcement procedures on landowners failing to comply with legal notice from May through October. Depending on the growth of the noxious weeds targeted, mowing or herbicide treatment will be used to bring the landowner's infestation into compliance with Weld County Code Chapter 15. B. Project Requirements The purpose of this bid is to establish the basic costs of various items such as different classes of mowing and different classes of herbicide treatment so that the County can, on relatively short notice, have noncompliant lands within Weld County brought into compliance by applying one or a combination of the items most appropriate to an individual site and time. The Contractor must be able to respond to a County request for work within 3 working days, unless a longer time frame or future date is defined by Weld County, with all of the labor, equipment, and materials necessary to complete the requested work in a timely manner. All work shall be completed in accordance with these specifications, accepted horticultural practices, and the project work order.

Term of Contract This Contract is a renewable one year term. The County, at its sole option, may offer to extend this Contract for up to two additional one-year terms (for a total of three possible years). The extension option may be exercised providing satisfactory service is given and all terms and conditions of the contract have been fulfilled. Such extensions must be mutually agreed upon in writing, by and between the Public Works Department Weed Division Supervisor and the Contractor. An increase of 5% or less can be approved by the Director of Public Works. Extensions more than 5% must be approved by the Board of County Commissioners or re -opened for a new bidding process. IV.

REQUEST FOR ENFORCEMENT SERVICES MOWING AND/OR SPRAYING WELD COUNTY COLORADO — COUNTY WIDE PROJECT LOCATIONS Do Purr .se Weld County is soliciting bids from qualified consultants for contractual services of mowing and/or spraying in Weld County. Two separate bids are included in this contract. These bids are for mowing, and private parcel spraying. Ile Scope of Services The Weed Division of the Weld County Public Works Department manages the noxious weed control program for Weld County, Colorado. The weed control program was established under the Colorado Weed Management Act, Section 35-5.5-101, et. seq., CRS, and Weld County Code, Chapter 15. Both laws provide the right to enforce weed control measures on negligent landowners if all of the appropriate steps have been followed. Aa G neral Proj - ct Descripto • n The Weed Division will carry out enforcement procedures on landowners failing to comply with legal notice from May through October. Depending on the growth of the noxious weeds targeted, mowing or herbicide treatment will be used to bring the landowner's infestation into compliance with Weld County Code Chapter 15. Be Project Requirements The purpose of this bid is to establish the basic costs of various items such as different classes of mowing and different classes of herbicide treatment so that the County can, on relatively short notice, have noncompliant lands within Weld County brought into compliance by applying one or a combination of the items most appropriate to an individual site and time. The Contractor must be able to respond to a County request for work within 3 working days, unless a longer time frame or future date is defined by Weld County, with all of the labor, equipment, and materials necessary to complete the requested work in a timely manner. All work shall be completed in accordance with these specifications, accepted horticultural practices, and the project work order. All permits, licenses, fees and traffic control associated with any work under this Contract are the responsibility of the Contractor, unless otherwise noted. Due to the size of Weld County, the variety of project types and that timeliness is essential in this contract, the Weed Division Supervisor will work with several Contractors. HI. Term of Contract This Contract is a renewable one-year term. The County, at its sole option, may offer to extend this Contract for up to two additional one-year terms (for a total of three possible years). The extension option may be exercised providing satisfactory service is given and all terms and conditions of the contract have been fulfilled. Such extensions must be mutually agreed upon in writing, by and between the Public Works Department Weed Division Supervisor and the Contractor. An increase of 5% or less can be approved by the Director of Public Works. Extensions more than 5% must be approved by the Board of County Commissioners or re -opened for a new bidding process. :renW,ZingtY�iL:Lfv3la c ES. •c Earn. ;0.
