Specifications include, but are not limited to: CMHA is seeking proposals from independent contractors with demonstrated professional competence and experience to provide snow removal and/or salting and surface treatment of parking lots and other designated areas for various locations within Hamilton County, Ohio. The Contractor(s) shall provide all materials, labor, equipment and all other items required to satisfy the Authority’s need for timely and professional snow and ice removal services as described herein. This request seeks pricing based on performed service per location on a per service basis. Refer to the attached Fee Submission Form for identification of areas to be serviced. Salting and surface treatment services may be included with snow removal or may be a separate operation. The Contractor(s) selected by the Authority will be required to follow the Authority policies as specified in this request, the Performance Based Contract and subsequent purchase orders. Additionally, the Authority reserves the right to remove properties as necessary (and will contact the vendor if such a need arises). CMHA has applied to convert the remainder of its housing stock to U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Program which will require transferring select properties to Touchstone Property Services (an instrumentality under CMHA) at various times during the course of any awarded contracts. Any awarded contractor will be notified before this occurs to sign a change order transferring that property to Touchstone Property Services. This will not affect the services or pricing under the contract (except to make it taxable and to email the invoice to the TPS accounting office).
