EMERGENCY PUSH AND CLEAR

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-02 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners adopted a resolution authorizing a three-year extension for Prequalification Pool No. RTQ-00867, which provides Emergency Push & Clear and Debris Removal Services for multiple county departments. This extension is time-only and does not request additional expenditure authority. The pool, originally established in 2018 with an allocation of $330,000,000, covers services such as pushing, clearing, hauling vegetative debris, stump removal, and hazardous tree removal. The extension aims to maintain access to prequalified vendors for rapid mobilization during declared emergencies, ensuring public safety and restoration of county facilities. Any contract award under the pool exceeding $5,000,000, or $1,500,000 for the Miami-Dade Aviation Department, requires ratification by the Board. The pool currently has 12 active vendors, nine with local addresses. Due diligence was performed on all vendors, with noted ongoing litigation for two vendors and prior resolved litigation for two others, none of which adversely impacted the pool. Public comment or stakeholder sentiment is not stated in the document.
