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
