The Landbank is looking for qualified contractors to complete lawn maintenance on owned properties (those with and without a structure). The Landbank will award annual contracts to multiple contractors and will distribute the work based on geographic area, contractor capacity, or in any manner that best accomplishes the work. Contracts are to be for two years, with the option to extend for additional one-year periods, if so desired by both parties. A contract for services does not guarantee that the contractor will receive a specific amount of work.

The Landbank expects each contractor to understand its mission, its Policies & Procedures, including its Purchasing Policy, and its likely inventory. The Landbank owns these properties in order to help facilitate nuisance abatement needs and to ultimately place the property back into private ownership and back on the tax rolls.

Cincinnati regional companies with demonstrated experience and capacity in lawn maintenance are invited to respond to this request. The Landbank encourages participation from small and emerging contractors. After the deadline, the Landbank will review all submissions and select a group of qualified lawn maintenance contractors. The Landbank reserves the right to rescind and republish this request without award if no companies are deemed responsive.

BID LISTS

Properties are broken up into Lists by geographical area or special program for the ease of bidding, please take note that some areas have many sites while some may only have a few. Each site and List as a whole should be quoted with your best price, and each List will be awarded to a single contractor. You may bid on as many or as few of the Lists as you choose.
