Requesting tree removal

The Choctaw Nation Housing Authority is soliciting quotes for tree removal services at 1696 W Cedar Tree Lane in Atoka, Oklahoma. The scope of work requires the removal of two specific trees and the grinding of their stumps: one tree located at the propane tank that is displacing the tank, and another to the west of the home that is growing into the service wire. The contractor is responsible for all line locates, required permits, and the complete removal of waste, ensuring the yard is restored to mowing condition. All work must meet or exceed 2019 IRC standards, and the contractor must hold all applicable licenses. Additionally, the contractor must provide a storage container to move home contents out of the 1,500 square foot residence before interior work begins and return them upon completion. Bids must be submitted exclusively through the Housing Bid Board by October 2, 2026, and must include itemized costs and a price expiration date to be considered valid. This solicitation is subject to Indian Preference, providing priority to Indian organizations and Indian-owned economic enterprises, and Davis-Bacon rules apply to federally funded projects of $2,000 or more. The project is managed by Andrea Strawn and inspected by Dustin Battles, with an estimated award date of November 2, 2026.
