Modesto 2026 Restroom Replacement

The Modesto 2026 Restroom Replacement project involves engaging a qualified full-service consultant team tasked with designing the demolition and replacement of an existing restroom facility at Whitmore Neighborhood Park with a prefabricated building. This project requires comprehensive design services spanning civil engineering, electrical engineering, landscape architecture, surveying, and geotechnical analyses, with adherence to City of Modesto building codes, park design standards, and ADA compliance. The selected consultant must provide a complete set of construction documents including topographic surveys, soil borings, utility coordination, site landscaping and irrigation design, and electrical system updates. Deliverables are expected to be thorough, biddable, and formatted per City standards, with ongoing project management including biweekly meetings and formal progress documentation. The solicitation emphasizes value engineering, quality design, and simplicity, prioritizing consultants with demonstrated relevant experience, technical ability, familiarity with City of Modesto procedures, and strong local presence. Evaluation will be based on a weighted point system assessing qualifications and technical merit, with negotiation following assessments before any cost considerations. Contract provisions include standard municipal consulting clauses addressing consultant obligations, conflict of interest avoidance, insurance coverage, subcontracting restrictions, ownership of data, and compliance with laws. The City retains inspection and acceptance authority, with deliverables and final installations reviewed at the project site. The agreement permits termination for convenience with notice, requires maintaining proper insurance and business licensing, and mandates confidentiality and prior approval for public communications. Submission of proposals must follow strict formatting and deadline requirements through the City's OpenGov portal by January 20, 2026.
