W Mallard Creek Church Rd at Mallard Glen Dr SW Gap

The project, titled W Mallard Creek Church Rd at Mallard Glen Dr SW Gap, is a turnkey infrastructure initiative by the City of Charlotte to connect two existing sidewalks with approximately 400 linear feet of six-foot-wide sidewalk accompanied by an eight-foot planting strip, alongside 100 linear feet of two-foot-six-inch curb and gutter. The scope includes milling and repainting of travel lanes in the work area and grading behind the newly installed sidewalk to ensure proper drainage and integration with surrounding terrain. All work must comply with local, state, and national codes, including full ADA accessibility standards, and the contractor is required to conduct field verification of all existing conditions before finalizing designs. The contractor must be properly licensed in North Carolina and adhere to the City’s Restricted Data Policy, treating any confidential information obtained as proprietary and restricting access only to personnel with a need-to-know who have signed confidentiality agreements and completed required training. The contract prohibits unauthorized use, copying, or modification of City data, with all processed information remaining the exclusive property of the City. The solicitation, numbered 269-2026-210 and tied to Project PMES231772, was posted on June 11, 2026, with proposals due by July 8, 2026, before noon, and must be submitted electronically through Bonfire. A pre-bid meeting is scheduled for June 24, 2026, via Microsoft Teams, and all inquiries must be submitted through the Bonfire vendor discussion portal or email to Katie Smollett by July 1, 2026. Bidders are required to submit an itemized bid form in Excel, a Commercial Non-Discrimination Certification, and a CBI Form 3 Subcontractor/Supplier Utilization Commitment. Although the project’s MWBSE participation goal is zero due to its size, the City encourages inclusion of certified Minority, Women, and Small Business Enterprises headquartered in the Charlotte Combined Statistical Area. The estimated contract value ranges between $100,000 and $250,000, and while a 5% bid security is required for bids exceeding $300,000, it is not mandatory for this project. The contract period is 183 calendar days, performance will occur in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, and the agreement is governed by North Carolina law with venue exclusively in Mecklenburg County.
