Pocket Park Improvements-Site Preparation

The project involves site preparation for a new pocket park in the Village of New Square, NY, including excavation, grading, pavement, concrete work, fencing, tree planting, and the installation of a rubberized safety surface that complies with ADA standards. The contract is set for a six-month duration, with bids due by September 15, 2025, at 11:00 AM. Bidders must submit sealed proposals accompanied by a bid bond or certified check equal to at least 10% of their bid amount, payable to the Village. The procurement is not set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned businesses, but participation from minority and women-owned firms is encouraged. The project is federally funded through ARPA, requiring compliance with applicable federal regulations, including 2 CFR Part 200, and adherence to labor standards, non-discrimination laws, and wage requirements. Bidders are required to have an active registration with SAM.gov and a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) prior to submission, with the responsibility to maintain active status throughout the project. Contract documents and specifications are available for review and purchase at the Village Clerk’s office for a fee of $50. The Village retains the right to reject any or all bids, waive informalities, and re-advertise if necessary. The scope of work emphasizes compliance with federal, state, and local laws, including labor standards and non-discrimination policies, and mandates that all work be completed within the specified six-month period at the designated site. There are no explicit FAR clauses or detailed inspection, packaging, or evaluation criteria provided in the available documentation, but the process will prioritize the lowest responsible bid that meets all legal and technical requirements. The administrative contacts include the Village Clerk, David Breuer, and the project is managed through the Village of New Square’s designated offices, with no specific provisions for electronic invoicing or detailed delivery schedules beyond the general performance period.
