The performance period is 45 working days from the issuance of the Notice to Proceed, which is expected no sooner than September 2026. Key requirements include a 10 percent bid security, 100 percent performance and payment bonds, and adherence to Yolo County prevailing wage rates. Additionally, contractors must follow OSHA standards for lead-based material handling and submit approved overnight security and pedestrian accessibility plans prior to starting construction.
