Landscape Services Ecological Restoration and Invasive Species for Parks and Recreation

Pierce County - Procurement and Contract Services has issued request for proposal, solicitation 2026-RFP-207.

Pierce County is soliciting Request for Proposals from firms interested in providing on-call landscape maintenance services of restoration and mitigation sites. The consultant will support County staff in providing vegetative maintenance, invasive species control and plant installation services across a variety of Pierce County-owned locations primarily located in highly regulated wetlands, riparian and other sensitive restoration areas

A strong emphasis is placed on invasive species management using minimally impactful manual control methods in environmentally sensitive wetland and riparian areas. Locations will typically be planted with native vegetation, so an awareness of native and invasive species identification is essential. Work will also necessitate the use of chemical herbicides in regulated aquatic areas and requires proper licensing and endorsements for aquatic herbicide application. The ability to use a multi-faceted approach is desired to achieve desired control outcomes.
