The City of Norco’s Public Works Department is soliciting bids for the FY 2025-26 Slurry Seal Project under solicitation number 4902.1, with proposals due by June 17, 2026. The contract requires comprehensive pavement maintenance services across multiple city streets, including weed abatement, crack sealing, slurry sealing with cationic emulsion and latex additive, localized full-depth pavement repairs, thermoplastic striping, pavement markings per Caltrans standards, and AC berm construction, all to be performed per the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction and City of Norco plans. Work must be completed within 45 working days after the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages of $1,000 per day for delays. Bidders must submit a 10% bid bond and are required to provide performance and payment bonds, proof of workers’ compensation insurance, and certified payroll records in compliance with California prevailing wage laws. The City Engineer retains final authority for inspection and acceptance, with 5% retention withheld until project completion and formal Notice of Completion is filed. Payment is processed monthly upon submission of itemized invoices with supporting documentation, though specific remittance details are not provided. The award will be made to the lowest responsible bidder using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach, with no technical scoring or weighting applied beyond ensuring baseline compliance. Contractors must comply with federal and state environmental regulations, equal opportunity employment requirements, and indemnification obligations, and may not assign the contract or use subcontractors without prior written approval. All submissions must be made electronically through the City’s vendor portal, with no paper or email submissions accepted. The scope excludes any packaging, labeling, preservation, or military standards requirements, as all material handling and marking provisions pertain exclusively to on-site traffic control and roadway construction. The contract does not specify a total value, as pricing fields in the bid template remain unfilled, and no accounting codes or appropriation data are provided. Point of contact for inquiries is Sam Nelson, Director of Public Works, reachable via phone or email provided in the solicitation.
