Citywide Replacement Tree Planting

The City of Cincinnati seeks a qualified contractor to provide full‑service tree replacement planting across its public right‑of‑way network. The contractor must supply, transport, plant, and guarantee up to 2,000 trees per year (1,500 in Areas 1 (E.N.W.) and 500 in Area 2 (South)), including all labor, site preparation, utility marking coordination, back‑fill mixes, mulching, watering‑bag installation, and post‑planting maintenance for a one‑year guarantee. The work is divided into two possible contracts (Area 1 and Area 2), allowing bidders to pursue either or both. The city requires compliance with ANSI Z60.2, utility‑marking protocols, safety and traffic‑control standards, and a 1 % administrative fee incorporated into the per‑tree price. The contract will run from February 1 2027 through June 30 2028 (17 months) with two optional 12‑month extensions.
