Jones Beach east ballfield resurfacing

The contract involves a maintenance-level renovation of the East Ballfield at Jones Beach, aiming to correct the infield/outfield transition, improve grading and drainage, refresh the infield clay, and reset the 70-foot pitching arc. The scope includes stripping and replacing sod along the outfield arc, regrading the infield/outfield transition area, rototilling and fine-grading the existing infield, and installing new infield clay. Additionally, new bases, home plate, and pitcher’s rubber will be furnished and installed, with adjustments made to irrigation laterals impacted by the work. The project also entails final cleaning and restoration to ensure the field is ready for use. Work will commence once access is coordinated with park staff and must be completed by April 1, 2026. The solicitation, issued by the NYS Office of Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation, specifies a project budget ranging from $50,000 to $150,000 and is open to qualified vendors. The contract is a one-time service, with a response deadline of October 24, 2025. The project is located within Nassau and Suffolk counties in New York. The work is detailed in a Request for Quote (RFQ) that emphasizes adherence to prevailing wage requirements and includes instructions for submission, pricing, and qualifications. The primary point of contact is Program Aide Armando Diaz, reachable via email or phone. The project aims to enhance the field’s safety, playability, and overall condition, ensuring it meets maintenance standards without a full reconstruction.
