2026 T-SPLOST Paving

The City of Elberton is soliciting sealed bids for a comprehensive paving and resurfacing project covering 3.43 miles of eleven municipal streets and three public parking lots, with a maximum funding ceiling of $1,400,000. All work must comply with the Georgia Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Construction of Transportation Systems, 2021 edition, and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, including precise milling depths of 1.5” or 2.0”, application of 9.5mm or 12.5mm asphalt with a 2% drainage crown, crack sealing using polymer-modified sealers, thermoplastic or paint striping, speed table modifications, and ADA-compliant parking markings. Bids must include 100% Performance and Payment Bonds and be submitted as sealed physical copies to the Municipal Building at 203 Elbert Street by 2:00 p.m. local time on Thursday, July 23, 2026; electronic bids are not accepted. Digital copies of the solicitation documents are available upon request via email to Natalie Pifer, but all submissions must be in hard copy. The City reserves full discretion to evaluate bids, reject any or all submissions, waive procedural formalities, and award the contract based solely on what it determines to be in the best interest of the City, with no formalized technical scoring or weighted evaluation criteria outlined. While no federal acquisition regulations or contract clauses are referenced, the project is classified under NAICS code 237310 and is administered locally without socioeconomic set-asides, UEI/CAGE requirements, or federal accounting identifiers. Work locations include specific streets and parking lots such as Lake Forest Drive, Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard, Swift Lot, Elbert Theatre, and Blackwell Cultural Center, with some tasks like Johnson Drive paving restricted to weekends. The City’s Public Works Director and City Clerk serve as primary points of contact for technical and procedural inquiries, though no formal Contracting Officer or COR is designated. Payment terms, invoicing procedures, and delivery logistics are not specified beyond the requirement that contractors supply all materials, labor, equipment, and disposal services on-site.
