    Questions & Answers

    Q (No subject): Can a general contractor bid on this project by partnering with a brick paver contractor?

    A: Proposals submitted will be reviewed in accordance with the scope of work outlined in the solicitation and evaluated using the established evaluation criteria. Additionally, please refer to Section 7.30 of the solicitation for specific language regarding subcontractors.


    Q (Furnishing Pavers/Material Markup %): For contractor furnished pavers, do you have information on the various pavers types that will possibly need to be furnished? Since they all have different costs. Or does #9 (material markup %) cover all materials furnished in a cost + markup model?

    A: Typically utilize standard brick pavers consistent with the City's existing brick street and sidewalk materials. The exact specifications are determined on a per-project basis. A cost + markup model is appropriate for contractor-furnished materials.


    Q (No subject): In terms of the amount of SF and the associated pricing, are the sizes referencing individual areas, or the total square footage for each phase/mobilization? There is a big cost difference between doing one 400sf area at one time, versus six 300sf areas that are in close proximity to each other, at one time.

    A: Square footage represents total work per project/phase. One mobilization per project is assumed by grouping, even if multiple areas are included.


    Q (No subject): What items, if any, will be handled by, or cost covered by, the City? Ex. Lighting (if nightwork is to be performed), traffic control, communication/notice to residents/businesses effected by the work, permitting, transporting city stock pavers to/from the stock yard and the work areas, etc.

    A: The contractor shall provide all labor, equipment, and traffic control. The city may provide materials or assist with notifications on a case-by-case basis.


    Q (Asphalt/Concrete Removal): What is the thickness of the asphalt and/or concrete that would be removed? Is there rebar, or assumed to be rebar, within the concrete that would be removed?

    A: Asphalt ranges from approximately 2 inches (overlays) to 10–12 inches or more for full-depth sections. Concrete sidewalks are typically 4 to 6 inches thick, and curbs generally range from approximately 6 to 12 inches in depth. Reinforcement is typically not in sidewalks/driveways but may be present in curbs and roadways.


    Q (Ribbon Curb Installation): What are the specs of the ribbon curbs that would possibly need to be installed?

    A: Typical ribbon curb is 6 inches wide by 12-16 inches deep.
