an intentional act, error, omission, or negligence of such party, and (iv) could not have
reasonably been foreseen and prepared for by such party at any time prior to the
occurrence of the event. Subject to the foregoing criteria, Force Majeure may include
events such as war, civil insurrection, riot, fires, epidemics, pandemics, terrorism,
sabotage, explosions, embargo restrictions, quarantine restrictions, transportation
accidents, strikes, strong hurricanes or tornadoes, earthquakes, or other acts of God
which prevent performance. Force Majeure shall not include technological impossibility,
inclement weather, or failure to secure any of the required permits pursuant to the
Agreement.
(B) If the City or Consultant's performance of its contractual obligations is prevented or
delayed by an event believed by to be Force Majeure, such party shall immediately,
upon learning of the occurrence of the event or of the commencement of any such delay,
but in any case within fifteen (15) business days thereof, provide notice: (i) of the
occurrence of event of Force Majeure, (ii) of the nature of the event and the cause
thereof, (iii) of the anticipated impact on the Agreement, (iv) of the anticipated period of

the detrimental effects of the event. The timely delivery of the notice of the occurrence of
a Force Majeure event is a condition precedent to allowance of any relief pursuant to this
section; however, receipt of such notice shall not constitute acceptance that the event
claimed to be a Force Majeure event is in fact Force Majeure, and the burden of proof of
the occurrence of a Force Majeure event shall be on the requesting party.

(C) No party hereto shall be liable for its failure to carry out its obligations under the
Agreement during a period when such party is rendered unable, in whole or in part, by
Force Majeure to carry out such obligations. The suspension of any of the obligations
under this Agreement due to a Force Majeure event shall be of no greater scope and no
longer duration than is required. The party shall use its reasonable best efforts to
continue to perform its obligations hereunder to the extent such obligations are not
affected or are only partially affected by the Force Majeure event, and to correct or cure
the event or condition excusing performance and otherwise to remedy its inability to
perform to the extent its inability to perform is the direct result of the Force Majeure
event with all reasonable dispatch.
(D) Obligations pursuant to the Agreement that arose before the occurrence of a Force
Majeure event, causing the suspension of performance, shall not be excused as a result
of such occurrence unless such occurrence makes such performance not reasonably
possible. The obligation to pay money in a timely manner for obligations and liabilities
which matured prior to the occurrence of a Force Majeure event shall not be subject to
the Force Majeure provisions.

Majeure occurrence, the City may, at the sole discretion of the City Manager, suspend
the City's payment obligations under the Agreement, and may take such action without
regard to the notice requirements herein. Additionally, in the event that an event of
Force Majeure delays a party's performance under the Agreement for a time period
greater than thirty (30) days, the City may, at the sole discretion of the City Manager,

termination. If the Agreement is terminated pursuant to this section, Consultant shall be
paid for any Services satisfactorily performed up to the date of termination; following
which the City shall be discharged from any and all liabilities, duties, and terms arising
out of, or by virtue of, this Agreement. In no event will any condition of Force Majeure

ANALYSIS
On September 17, 2021, Request for Qualifications (RFQ) 2021-207-AY for Urban Forestry
Services was issued. RFQ responses were received on November 12, 2021. The City
received proposals from the following three (3) firms: The F.A. Bartlett Tree Expert Company,
Davey Resource Group, Inc., and E Sciences, Inc.
On December 14, 2021, the Evaluation Committee appointed by the City Manager convened to
consider the proposals received. The Committee was comprised of the following individuals:
Michael Atkin, Superintendent, Public Works Department; Juanita Ballesteros, Senior
Resilience Analyst, City Manager's Office; Omar Leon, Urban Forester, Environment and
Sustainability Department; Carlos Naumann, Contract Compliance Administrator, Parks and
Recreation Department; and Rodney Perez, Capital Projects Coordinator, Capital Improvement
Projects Department. The Committee was provided an overview of the project, information
relative to the City's Cone of Silence Ordinance and the Government Sunshine Law. The
Committee was also provided with general information on the scope of services and a copy of
each proposal. The Committee was instructed to score and rank each proposal pursuant to the
evaluation criteria established in the RFQ. The evaluation process resulted in the proposers
being ranked by the Evaluation Committee in the following order(See Attachment A):
1st ranked— E Sciences, Inc.
2nd ranked—The F.A. Bartlett Tree Expert Company
3rd ranked—Davey Resource Group, Inc. (submitted for urban forestry consultation only)
Below is a summary of the three (3)firms.
E Sciences, Inc.
Founded in 2000, E Sciences, Inc. ("E Sciences") is an environmental, engineering, and
ecological consulting firm providing a wide range of services to clients in both the public and
private sectors. The firm has extensive experience from its long history of successfully

DocuSign Envelope ID 2BD32FE7-A5AB-4620-9F38-BCE16E29B331
executing projects throughout Florida and the southeastern United States. E Sciences is
currently an awarded bidder of the City's professional architectural and engineering services in
specialized categories and has performed well in providing the City consulting services for
geotechnical testing, global positioning tree inventory services, and architectural and
engineering services. In addition, the City has received positive feedback about the firm from
agencies such as the City of Lakeland and Hillsborough County.
The F.A. Bartlett Tree Expert Company
Founded in 1907, The F.A. Bartlett Tree Expert Company ("Bartlett") is a nationwide firm
specializing in scientific tree and shrub services. Bartlett has assisted residential and
commercial customers to maintain beautiful, healthy trees from its over 100 offices worldwide.
Through its years of services, the firm has at its disposal a fully equipped diagnostic laboratory
with molecular testing capabilities, an extensive reference library, an education center, an
arboretum containing over 15,000 accessioned plants, numerous working test plots, and even a
bird sanctuary. In addition, the City has received positive feedback about the firm from the City
of Fort Lauderdale, the Town of Gulf Stream, and Aramark, including positive feedback on The
tree inventories and management plans offered by Bartlett.
Davey Resource Group, Inc.
Founded in 1880 and with operations throughout North America, Davey Resource Group, Inc.
("Davey Resource Group") specializes in scientifically-based horticultural and environmental
services. Employee-owned since 1979, Davey Resource group is Ohio's largest employee-
owned company and the eighth-largest in the nation. The firm has assisted in leading
environmental programs by developing practices based on responsible, science-based actions,
advanced technical research, and sustainable business practices. In addition, the City has
received positive feedback about the firm from agencies such as the City of Columbus, the City
of Largo, and the City of Tallahassee. Davey Resource Group submitted a proposal for only the
consulting portion of the work and declined to submit a proposal for the advanced tree care
work.
SUPPORTING SURVEY DATA
Based on the 2019 resident survey, 49.4%strongly agree that they are satisfied with the amount
of tree canopy coverage in their neighborhood. This amount has increased by 16.4% since the
2016 study. The City intends to contract with qualified professionals to provide urban forestry
consultation and advance tree care work to increase satisfaction.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Fees will be established through the negotiation process. Funding for the services is subject to
the approval of funds through the City's budgeting process. The annual expenditures for these
services is estimated to be approximately $200,000. Additionally, the State of Florida provides
grant funding from the Florida Urban and Community Forestry Grant in an estimated amount of
up to $60,000.
CONCLUSION
After reviewing all of the submissions and the Evaluation Committee process, I concur with the
Evaluation Committee and find E Sciences, Inc., The F.A. Bartlett Tree Expert Company, and
Davey Resource Group, Inc. (urban forestry consultation only) to all be well-qualified firms for
the required services. The firms are all skilled and specialized in the area of urban forestry and
advanced tree care, as reflected by each firm's years of services and the extensive resumes of
Page 231 of 1313
DocuSign Envelope ID 2BD32FE7-A5AB-4620-9F38-BCE16E29B331
the individuals to be engaged in the projects. The firms have demonstrated expertise in
developing environmental programs and plans and have successfully completed projects
throughout South Florida. As it was the goal of the RFP to establish a pool of prequalified
consultants that could be engaged on a per-project basis to assist the City with maintaining a
vibrant tree canopy, I agree with the assessment of staff and the Evaluation Committee that all
three firms are qualified to participate in the pool.
For the reasons stated herein, I recommend that the Mayor and City Commission approve the
Resolution authorizing the Administration to enter into negotiations with The F.A. Bartlett Tree
Expert Company, Davey Resource Group, Inc. (for urban forestry consulting services only), and
E Sciences, Inc. to establish a pool of prequalified urban forestry consultants. The Resolution
also authorizes the City Manager and City Clerk to execute an agreement upon conclusion of
successful negotiations by the Administration and the City Attorney's Office.

Urban Forestry Consultation
3a. Past Tree Canopy Analysis
Bartlett's tree canopy analysis services can run the gamut from very simple (i-Tree Canopy) to
exceeding complex (100% census of all overstory trees derived from lidar point clouds). Most
commonly, we have leveraged one-meter NAIP imagery to calculate percent canopy and other
land use classes for such clients as the City of Aiken, SC and Penn State University. Relying on
NAIP imagery continues to be a great choice for repeatable analysis; however, there are
emerging opportunities to leverage commercially available datasets to augment NAIP imagery,
as well the possibility of leveraging machine learning to classify and assign species to tree point
data derived from high-density lidar point clouds. Bartlett is experienced with providing canopy
assessment services as standalone exercises, but even more frequently as part of larger
projects. Whether that has been utilizing i-Tree Eco sample plots as part of a long-range climate
resiliency team, leveraging i-Tree Design for parcel level outputs for a small city's public parks,
or incorporating traditional canopy assessment into a larger master planning effort intersecting
with field inventory of both trees and potential planting sites, Bartlett is committed to crafting an
approach most suited to every client's objectives. For the City of Miami Beach, Bartlett Tree
Experts can offer both traditional techniques to accomplish cyclical Urban Tree Canopy
Assessments or some of these newer areas of practice in conjunction with partners to extend
analysis more granularly across the entire urban forest, capturing species information of
individual trees, on both public and private property. Fine tuning which pathway to take would be
a key step during the project kickoff/needs assessment phase.
3b. Inventory Data Collection Approach
For any inventory fieldwork undertaken as part of the engagement, each field Consulting
Arborist will have Bartlett required Personal Protective Equipment consisting of: Hi-vis safety
vest, hard hat, safety glasses, and ankle covering footwear. Data collection equipment will
consist of: Trimble® Geo 7x (or similar GNSS receiver), diameter tape, a mallet for sounding
trees (if risk assessments are part of the scope), and tags, screws, and a drill (if tree tags are
part of the scope).
Data collection will proceed and conclude each day on-site at a predetermined time. Field
Consulting Arborists will start each morning with a brief tailgate safety meeting. Trimble® Geo
7x receivers or similar GNSS receivers will be used to collect all data attributes for each tree. A
diameter tape will be used to ensure accurate measurements are recorded at breast height
(DBH —4.5 feet). At the end of each day, Consulting Arborists will upload that day's data to
ArborScopeTM. They will then perform QA/QC protocols set forth in the Quality Control Plan to
ensure that all data is being collected accurately and provide a summary to the project
manager.
Attributes collected for each tree will be determined specific to each particular project but may
include but not limited to the following:
o Tree Botanical Name and Common Name
o Tree ID Number

o GPS Location (Latitude and Longitude)
o DBH (Diameter at Breast Height = 4.5 feet)
o Condition Class (Good, Fair, Poor or Dead)
o Height Class (Large, Medium, Small)
o Estimated Canopy Radius (+/-5 ft.)
o Root Zone Infringement (<25%, 25-50%, 51-75%, >75%)
o Soil Care (Root Invigoration TM Soil Rx®)
o Tree and Shrub Work:
-Recommendations such as: Tree pruning, Tree removal, Cabling or brace rod installation,
and/or Lightning protection system installation
-Phase (ASAP, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5)
-Category (Risk mitigation, Maintenance, Developmental, Ornamental, Specialized)
o Observed Tree Defects
o Observed Pests/Diseases
o Plant Health Care Recommendations
o Estimated Tree Asset Value
o Level 2 Basic assessment for Tree Risk:
-Date of inspection
-High value targets within the target zone of the tree(s)
-Description of tree part(s) and associated observed defect(s)
-Likelihood of failure, likelihood of impact, and consequences
-Overall risk rating for the subject tree(s)
-Risk mitigation recommendations and/or options
-Recommendations for Level 3 Advanced assessment.
The lead Consulting Arborist manages all daily operations and communicates with the rest of
the Bartlett team about the current work plan. Data quality will be established and maintained
throughout the entire inventory process by calibrating all the field Consulting Arborist(s) prior to
the start of the project by making sure that all objectives and criteria have been addressed and
understood. Quality of the data during collection is ensured by all members of the team being
ISA Certified Arborists and Tree Risk Assessment Qualified, as well as possessing local
knowledge of the southeastern United States, and Florida species in particular.
3c. Quality Control
Prior to the start of any field data collection project, the field Consulting Arborist(s) will go
through a calibration on-site to review the data attributes that will be collected during the project.
This will ensure that the multiple data collectors will provide consistent and quality data
throughout the project, if applicable.
Bartlett Tree Experts field data undergoes a two-part series of QA/QC procedures to ensure the
highest possible data quality and data integrity. Within one business day of data collection, the
data assessor uploads their data into Bartlett's ArborScopeTM tree inventory management
program. Within ArborScopeTM, a tool called Data Validation is run on each day's dataset. This
tool checks for a variety of parameters including missing fields such as DBH, any unknown
species and any data inconsistencies, such as a risk rating assigned without a target. Data
Validation also flags any gaps in the Tree ID sequence or any duplicate Tree ID values. Data
Validation is run after each day's data collection so any missing information or inconsistencies
can be corrected before the data assessor leaves the project site. Once data collection is
complete, and Data Validation has been run on the last day's data and any identified issues
corrected, the project leader runs Data Finalization as a final check to ensure there are no

duplicate tree IDs or any other gross errors. Assuming a successful result, ArborScopeTM will
alert the data assessor that the data has successfully passed Data Finalization.
Depending on the nature of any particular inventory assignment, the project manager or team
leader may also pull random samplings of data and conduct spot checks of the field data
throughout the length of the project. Any inconsistencies will be identified and reviewed with the
project team.
3d. Past Experience with Advanced Tree Risk Assessments
We cannot comment on past experiences with tree risk assessments being used in legal
proceedings, but our local arborists have received extensive tree risk assessment training from
the expert staff at the Bartlett Tree Research Laboratories. With the support from the Bartlett
Consulting team, our local arborists are well prepared to provide species specific tree risk
assessments and recommendations while utilizing the latest tree inventory technology and
software. As a result, Bartlett's technical expertise in tree risk assessment is unsurpassed in
arboriculture.
3e. The Bartlett team knows that client needs vary from project to project. We strive to fully and
accurately understand the goals and objectives a tree inventory may present. Whether the
project is comprised of fifty trees on a residential property with the goal of preservation, or
thousands of trees in a community setting where evaluating safety or ecological benefits is the
key concern, Bartlett will take the time to understand what and how tree attribute information will
best benefit the client. We have created a customizable application for tree inventory data
collection that will readily meet the specific needs of each client we service.

Perform structural pruning and cable support installation to reduce risk to approximately 50
trees. Technical removal of several trees near the homes.
3b. Firm Approach
Board Certified Master Arborist (BCMA) meets with client to evaluate the tree(s), discusses
objectives with the client and provides recommendations about the approach to the project.
Based on the project needs, objectives and specifications, BCMA consults with doctors (PhD)
from the Bartlett Research Laboratories, Register Consulting Arborist from the Bartlett
Consulting Division, Division Mangers, Regional Technical Managers and Regional Technical
Arborist to develop the best course of action and to assemble the best team for the project.
Tissue samples or soil samples are submitted to the Bartlett Research Lab to help with
diagnostics if necessary.
A proposal is submitted to the client for approval providing all specifications about the project in
detail and the cost for the services. All recommendations will be based on Industry Standards
and Best Management Practices.
For tree inventory projects, tree risk assessments, support installation of large props regional
and local Arborist who specialize on conducting advance tree care are mobilized to execute the
project. All the arborists are certified with the International Society of Arboriculture and are
TRAQ qualified.
If the project is large or responding to a storm situation, crews and equipment from other parts
of the country will be mobilized to assist during the cleanup process and evaluation of the
damaged trees.
