27-003 AVM Park Concession Stand

The City of Commerce is soliciting proposals for turnkey construction services to renovate the concession stand and public support areas at American Veterans Memorial Park in Georgia. The project aims to enhance functionality, durability, and accessibility through the demolition of existing counters, installation of stainless steel worktables, addition of operable service windows, and the application of durable, washable interior finishes and polished concrete flooring. The contract will be awarded based on the best interest of the city, evaluating vendors on company background, experience with government buildings, and at least three Georgia-based client references. Proposals must be submitted as a total lump sum cost by October 30, 2026. The performance period is limited to 180 days from the notice to proceed, with payments processed after the successful completion and testing of all construction. Selected contractors must provide a 100 percent performance bond and a 100 percent labor and material payment bond, as well as general liability insurance of at least 1 million dollars per incident and state-required workman's compensation. Compliance requirements include E-Verify registration, adherence to non-discrimination clauses, and the submission of a drug and alcohol testing plan. Failure to complete the project within the allowed timeframe may result in liquidated damages of 1,500 dollars per day.
