REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS

 

SUMMARY

The Town of Rockport, Maine is requesting sealed bids for construction services for the Rockport Common project. This project entails the construction of a new public park in Rockport Maine on the site of the former Rockport Elementary School on West Street. This project was made possible through a philanthropic gift to the Town of Rockport from the Lesher Family Foundation. This Request for Proposals combines the previously separate Phase 1 (earthwork and utility infrastructure) and Phase 2 (park structures and features) into a single construction contract and Request for Proposals. The selected contractor will be responsible for all elements of park construction, except for the proposed Fieldhouse, Pavilion, and Shade Structures. Procurement and construction of the Fieldhouse, Pavilion, and Shade Structures shall be under a separate process and contract(s).

 

Complete bidding requirements, including this Request for Proposals, Instructions to Bidders (Section 00 21 13), Bid Form (Section 00 41 13), and other Contract Documents, are available as part of the Project Manual and must be used without exception. Bids that do not comply with the Project Manual may be rejected by the Owner.
