A government authority located in Augusta, Maine is seeking a vendor to provide lawn care services. The scope of work includes weekly mowing of all turf areas, with the requirement that no more than one-third of the leaf blades are removed per session. Edging is required around tree rings, plant beds, buildings, sidewalks, fences, driveways, parking lots, and other surfaced areas bordered by grass, utilizing a power edger for clean and defined lines.

Care for isolated trees and shrubs smaller than 12 inches in diameter is specified, requiring mulched areas of at least two feet in diameter around their base to prevent injury from equipment and to reduce root competition with grass. The awarded bidder will also be responsible for promptly cleaning clippings from walkways, sidewalks, parking lots, curbs, and roadways after mowing or edging operations. The contract will be for a period of one year, with all bidder questions due by April 8, 2026.
