AFFIDAVIT REGARDING PROPOSAL, CHAPTER 287, E-VERIFY, AND NON-COLLUSION

THIS FORM MUST BE SIGNED IN THE PRESENCE OF A NOTARY PUBLIC OR OTHER OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED TO ADMINISTER OATHS.

Name of Proposer: 	

I am over eighteen (18) years of age and competent to testify as to the matters contained herein. I serve in the capacity of 	 for Proposer, and am authorized to make this Affidavit Regarding Proposal on behalf of Proposer.

I state that:

Chapter 287, Florida Statutes, on Integrity of Public Contracting and Purchasing

I have read and am familiar with Chapter 287, Florida Statutes, and specifically including the following Sections (“Public Integrity Laws”):
Section 287.133, Florida Statutes, titled Public entity crime; denial or revocation of the right to transact business with public entities;
Section 287.134, Florida Statutes, titled Discrimination; denial or revocation of the right to transact business with public entities;
Section 287.135, Florida Statutes, titled Prohibition against contracting with scrutinized companies;
Section 287.137, Florida Statutes, titled Antitrust violations; denial or revocation of the right to transact business with public entities; denial of economic benefits; and
Section 287.138, Florida Statutes, titled Contracting with entities of foreign countries of concern prohibited.
I understand that the Public Integrity Laws, with limited exceptions, prohibit entities that meet certain criteria from bidding on or entering into or renewing a contract with governmental entities, including with the District (“Prohibited Criteria”).
I understand that the Public Integrity Laws apply to the bidding documents applicable to the District’s Request for Proposals for Landscape and Irrigation Maintenance Services Project (“Project”) and the contract to be executed in connection with the Project.
Based on information and belief, the statement which I have marked below is true in relation to the Proposer submitting this sworn statement. (Indicate which statement applies.)

   Neither the entity submitting this sworn statement, nor any of its officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity, nor any affiliate of the entity, meets any of the Prohibited Criteria. Thus, the entity is not prohibited from bidding on or entering into or renewing a contract with the District.

   The entity submitting this sworn statement, one of its officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity, or an affiliate of the entity, meets one or more of the Prohibited Criteria.

If this statement is marked, the Proposer may provide additional information regarding the same in the space provided directly below (or by attaching a separate sheet and indicating this method in the space provided directly below). Such additional information may be related to the Proposer’s alleged basis for entitlement to an exception from the prohibition on bidding or contracting, to the extent one is permissible under Florida law.

If awarded the contract, the Proposer will immediately notify the District in writing if either the Proposer, any of its officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of the entity, or any affiliate of the entity, meets any of the Prohibited Criteria after award of the contract or during the term of the contract.

E-Verify

I understand that, pursuant to Section 448.095(2), Florida Statutes, we must comply with Florida’s E- Verify law in order to enter into an agreement with a public employer.
Our firm is registered with and uses the United States Department of Homeland Security’s E-Verify system to verify the work authorization status of all employees hired on or after January 1, 2021.
No public employer has terminated a contract with our firm under Section 448.095(2)(c),
Florida Statutes, within the year immediately preceding the date of our proposal.
Our firm is currently in compliance and will remain in compliance, for the duration of the agreement, with all requirements of Section 448.095(2), Florida Statutes.
I understand that, if there is a good faith belief that our firm has knowingly violated Section 448.09(1), Florida Statutes, there is an obligation to terminate the agreement pursuant to Section 448.095(2)(c), Florida Statutes.
I understand that, if there is a good faith belief that one of our subcontractor(s) has knowingly violated the Section 448.09(1), Florida Statutes, but our firm has otherwise complied with its obligations thereunder, then our firm will be required to immediately terminate its contract with the subcontractor in order to continue providing services to a public employer.

Non-Collusion

The price(s) and amount(s) of in our proposal have been arrived at independently and without consultation, communication, or agreement with any other proposer, potential proposer, proposal, or potential proposal.
Neither the price(s) nor the amount(s) in our proposal, have been disclosed to any other firm or person who is a proposer or potential proposer, and they will not be disclosed before opening of all proposals.
No attempt has been made or will be made to induce any firm or persons to refrain from submitting a proposal, or to submit a price(s) higher that the prices in our proposal, or to submit any intentionally high or noncompetitive price(s) or other form of complementary proposal.

Our proposal is made in good faith and not pursuant to any agreement or discussion with, or inducement from, any firm or person to submit a complementary or other noncompetitive proposal.
Our firm, its affiliates, subsidiaries, officers, director, and employees are not currently under investigation, by any governmental agency and have not in the last 3 years been convicted or found liable for any act prohibited by State or Federal law in any jurisdiction, involving conspiracy or collusion with respect to any public contract, except as disclosed.

By signing below, and by not filing a protest within the time period specified in the Project Manual, the Proposer acknowledges that (i) the Proposer has read, understood, and accepted the Project Manual; (ii) the Proposer has had an opportunity to consult with legal counsel regarding the Project Manual; (iii) the Proposer has agreed to the terms of the Project Manual; and (iv) the Proposer has waived any right to challenge any matter relating to the Project Manual, including but not limited to any protest relating to the notice, instructions, forms, contract form, scope of work, maintenance map, specifications, evaluation criteria, evaluation process, or any other issues or items relating to the Project Manual.

I state that I and the named firm understand and acknowledge that the above representations are material and important and will be relied on by the Stonebrier Community Development District for which our proposal is submitted. I understand and my firm understands that any misstatement in this affidavit is, and shall be treated as, fraudulent concealment from the District of the true facts relating to the submission of proposals for this work.

FORM OF AGREEMENT
LANDSCAPE AND IRRIGATION MAINTENANCE SERVICES AGREEMENT

This  Agreement  (“Agreement”)  is  made  and  entered  into  this       day  of
	, 2026, by and between:
Stonebrier Community Development District, a local unit of special-purpose government established pursuant to Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, being situated in Hillsborough County, Florida, and whose mailing address is 250 International Parkway, Suite 208, Lake Mary, Florida 32746 (the “District”); and
	,	a	Florida		,	whose	address	is
	 (“Contractor” and, together with the District, the “Parties”).

Recitals

Whereas, the District was established by ordinance of the County Commission of Hillsborough County, Florida, for the purpose of financing, funding, planning, establishing, acquiring, constructing or reconstructing, enlarging or extending, equipping, operating, and maintaining systems and facilities for certain infrastructure improvements; and

Whereas, the District has a need to retain an independent contractor to provide landscape and irrigation maintenance services for certain lands within the District; and

Whereas, Contractor represents that it is qualified to serve as a landscape and irrigation maintenance contractor and provide such services to the District.

Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, it is agreed that the Contractor is hereby retained, authorized, and instructed by the District to perform in accordance with the following covenants and conditions, which both the District and the Contractor have agreed upon:

Incorporation of Recitals. The recitals stated above are true and correct and by this reference are incorporated herein as a material part of this Agreement.

Description of Work and Services.

The District desires that the Contractor provide professional landscape maintenance services within presently accepted standards. Upon the Parties signing this Agreement, the Contractor shall provide the District with the specific services identified in this Agreement.

While providing the services identified in this Agreement, the Contractor shall assign such staff as may be required, and such staff shall be responsible for coordinating, expediting, and controlling all aspects to assure completion of the services.

The Contractor shall provide the specific professional services as shown in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement.

Scope of Landscape and Irrigation Maintenance Services. The duties,
obligations, and responsibilities of the Contractor those described in the Standard Services Scope of Work attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference, and in this Agreement. Such services shall be performed in the areas designated on Exhibit B. Contractor shall solely be responsible for the means, manner and methods by which its duties, obligations and responsibilities are met to the satisfaction of the District. The Contractor may perform additional services upon the written request of the District’s Manager consistent with Paragraph 5(C) of this Agreement.

Manner of Contractor’s Performance. The Contractor agrees, as an independent contractor, to undertake work and/or perform such services as specified in this Agreement or any addendum executed by the Parties or in any authorized written work order by the District issued in connection with this Agreement and accepted by the Contractor. All work shall be performed in a neat and professional manner reasonably acceptable to the District and shall be in accordance with industry standards. The performance of all services by the Contractor under this Agreement and related to this Agreement shall conform to any written instructions issued by the District.

Should any work and/or services be required which are not specified in this Agreement or any addenda, but which are nevertheless necessary for the proper provision of services to the District, such work or services shall be fully performed by the Contractor as if described and delineated in this Agreement, subject to the provisions of paragraph 5(C), below.

The Contractor agrees that the District shall not be liable for the payment of any work or services unless the District, through an authorized representative of the District, authorizes the Contractor, in writing, to perform such work.

The District shall designate in writing a person to act as the District’s representative with respect to the services to be performed under this Agreement. The District’s representative shall have complete authority to transmit instructions, receive information, interpret and define the District’s policies and decisions with respect to materials, equipment, elements, and systems pertinent to the Contractor’s services.

The District hereby designates the District Manager to act as its representative.

Contractor shall designate a competent, authorized representative (the “Authorized Representative”) acceptable to District to represent and act for Contractor and shall inform District, in writing, of the name and address of such representative together with a clear definition of the scope of his authority to represent and act for Contractor and shall specify any and all limitations of such authority. Contractor shall keep District informed of any

subsequent changes in the foregoing. The Authorized Representative, project managers, superintendents and/or supervisors for services provided herein are all subject to prior and continuous approval of the District. If, at any time during the term of this Agreement, any of the personnel either functionally or nominally performing any of the positions named above, are, for any reason whatsoever, reasonably unacceptable to the District, Contractor shall replace the unacceptable personnel with personnel reasonably acceptable to the District.

The Contractor agrees that the Authorized Representative will meet with the District’s representative at least once per month to walk the property to discuss conditions, schedules, and items of concern regarding this Agreement. In addition to any and all specific items addressed during such meetings, the Landscape & Irrigation Maintenance Audit Sheet, attached hereto as Exhibit C and incorporated herein, shall be completed and executed by both the Authorized Representative and District’s Representative at the conclusion of such meeting. The Contractor agrees to, within forty-eight (48) hours of receipt of an executed Audit Sheet, provide the Authorized Representative with a written explanation of what actions will be taken to remedy any performance deficiencies identified in the Audit Sheet. Upon submission of the written explanation, Contractor shall remedy the performance deficiencies at the first opportunity for performance. If significant performance deficiencies are documented in an executed Audit Sheet or if performance deficiencies persist without remedy, the Contractor agrees that the District has the rights to, among other remedies available at law or equity, terminate this Agreement for cause or withhold payment in whole or in part to the extent necessary to reasonably protect the District, if significant performance deficiencies are documented per executed Audit Sheet(s). Any oversight of Contractor’s performance of services under this Agreement by the Authorized Representative is not intended to mean that the District shall underwrite, guarantee, or ensure that the performance of services is properly done by the Contractor, and it is the Contractor’s responsibility to perform the services in accordance with this Agreement.

In the event that time is lost due to heavy rains or inclement weather (“Rain Days”), the Contractor agrees to reschedule its employees and divide their time accordingly to complete all scheduled services during the same week as any Rain Days. The Contractor shall provide services on Saturdays if needed to make up Rain Days, but shall not provide services on Sundays.

Contractor shall use all due care to protect the property of the District, its residents, and landowners from damage. Contractor agrees to repair any damage resulting from Contractor’s activities and work within twenty-four
(24) hours. Such repairs shall be at the Contractor’s own expense unless the District agrees otherwise, in writing.

The District reserves the right to bid out Mulch, Tree Trimming, Palm Tree Trimming, Crown Pruning, and irrigation repairs and/or replacements. In the event that the District contracts with a third party to perform such services, Contractor agrees that it shall be responsible for the maintenance thereof, and shall continue to perform all other services identified in this Agreement, including any future services that apply to the areas where bid out services are located.

Hurricanes and Other Weather Events. In the event a hurricane or other major weather event impacts the District, Contractor is expected to provide priority emergency clean up services. Once the storm has passed and there are safe work conditions, Contractor shall evaluate the community for damage and shall submit a proposal for clean or remediation services within ten (10) days after the storm has passed and the site is accessible and safe to return to. In the event of the District finding it necessary to file a claim with FEMA or any other governmental entity Contractor agrees to document all work accordingly, meeting with the agency (if required), and file all the necessary application (as instructed by the District) to assure that the District will comply and receive all available reimbursements for cost incurred from hurricane clean up or any other wind event. The contractor shall be familiar with FEMA, State or County regulations.

By execution of this Agreement, the District hereby authorizes the District Chairperson the authority to approve work authorizations for post-weather event clean up and remediation proposals not to exceed [$50,000] that are submitted by Contractor, which shall be ratified by the Board at the next regularly scheduled Board meeting to occur thereafter. If the proposal exceeds [$50,000], the Board may schedule a special meeting in order to consider the proposal if necessary. As a point of clarity, the Chairperson is authorized approval authority of work authorizations outside of District meetings for this purpose due to the time sensitive nature of post-storm clean up and remediation services, but Contractor is still required to submit a proposal with sufficient supporting documentation to be approved by the Chairperson consistent with the process for other proposals for additional services provided herein.

Compensation; Term.

As compensation for the services described in this Agreement, the District agrees  to  pay  the  Contractor  an  amount  of  not  to  exceed

All prior agreements between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement are terminated upon the execution of this Agreement.

If the District should desire additional work or services, or to add additional lands to be maintained, the Contractor agrees to negotiate in good faith to undertake such additional work or services. Upon successful negotiations, the Parties shall agree in writing to an addendum, addenda, or change order to this Agreement. The Contractor shall be compensated for such agreed additional work or services based upon a payment amount acceptable to the Parties and agreed to in writing. No additional services shall be provided by the Contractor unless done at the direction of the District.

The District may require, as a condition precedent to making any payment to the Contractor, that all subcontractors, material men, suppliers or laborers be paid and require evidence, in the form of Lien Releases or partial Waivers of Lien, to be submitted to the District by those subcontractors, material men, suppliers or laborers, and further require that the Contractor provide an Affidavit relating to the payment of said indebtedness. Further, the District shall have the right to require, as a condition precedent to making any payment, evidence from the Contractor, in a form satisfactory to the District, that any indebtedness of the Contractor, as to services to the District, has been paid and that the Contractor has met all of the obligations with regard to the withholding and payment of taxes, Social Security payments, Workmen’s Compensation, Unemployment Compensation contributions, and similar payroll deductions from the wages of employees.

The District shall be solely responsible for enforcing its rights under this Agreement against any interfering third party. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit or impair the District’s right to protect its rights from interference by a third party to this Agreement.

CUSTOM AND USAGE. It is hereby agreed, any law, custom, or usage to the contrary notwithstanding, that the District shall have the right at all times to enforce the conditions and agreements contained in this Agreement in strict accordance with the terms of this Agreement, notwithstanding any conduct or custom on the part of the District in refraining from so doing; and further, that the failure of the District at any time or times to strictly enforce its rights under this Agreement shall not be construed as having created a custom in any way or manner contrary to the specific conditions and agreements of this Agreement, or as having in any way modified or waived the same.
