Description

The Otsego County Road Commission, in coordination with the Michigan Department of Transportation, is soliciting proposals from one prime contractor for performance-based janitorial, grounds, and lawn maintenance services at the Vanderbilt Rest Area on southbound I-75 and the Gaylord Rest Area on northbound I-75. The contractor must provide all personnel, supervision, equipment, tools, materials, dumpsters, supplies, snow and ice removal, restroom and building cleaning, litter removal, lawn mowing, trimming, edging, landscaping maintenance, and related minor maintenance.

The contract begins May 1, 2027, runs through April 30, 2030, and may be renewed for two additional one-year periods by mutual agreement. A mandatory pre-bid meeting and site visit are required; failure to attend disqualifies a bidder.
