The City of Saint Paul Parks and Recreation Department is seeking quotes for the Hazel Park Site Improvement Phase 2 project, located at 945 Hazel St. N. The primary scope of work involves repairing paved and landscaped patio areas to ensure ADA compliance, with potential additional tasks including the resurfacing of an existing basketball court and the replacement of site furnishings. A non-mandatory pre-quote meeting is scheduled for September 22, 2026, at 10 AM CST on-site. All responses must be submitted via the City's supplier portal by October 5, 2026, at 2:00 PM CST. Award eligibility is based on responsiveness and responsibility, requiring the submission of a Responsible Contractor Verification and Certification of Compliance form, which mandates adherence to Minnesota state laws regarding tax registration, workers' compensation, and wage laws. Contractors must also comply with Affirmative Action and Equal Employment Opportunity specifications, including workforce participation goals of 32 percent minority and 20 percent female participation. The project emphasizes the Vendor Outreach Program, requiring the identification of CERT certified small, minority, and women-owned businesses. Prime contractors are required to report all subcontractor payments through the B2Gnow system, and failure to meet participation goals or provide evidence of good faith efforts may result in financial penalties or a one-year ineligible bidder status.
