949 Ponder Ave., Sarasota (pid 0048110055) septic abandonment

Sarasota County is requesting quotes from bidders to provide septic abandonment services.

Background

CHOOSE ONE AWARD STATEMENT AND DELETE THE OTHERS
Award will be made to the responsive and responsible bidder providing the lowest total bid price. 

We are in need of a quote for septic abandonment at 949 Ponder.  This is a hoarder situation with a vagrant living on the property and we can arrange for a deputy to be on site while the work is being done.  The house has completely burned to the ground and we plan to clean up the property but first need this taken care of so we can get heavy equipment on the lot. 

DO NOT submit a quote of more than $50,000.  In the event no responsive and responsible quotes are received under the quote threshold, the County may elect to cancel this Quick Quote and re-solicit using another procurement method.
