This is a Plan Bid Set document for the Benson Field Park project in Fallston, Maryland, prepared for Harford County. The project encompasses the development of a new county park featuring two multi-purpose grass fields, one baseball field, pickleball courts, pedestrian walkways, a parking lot with associated road improvements, erosion and sediment control measures, stormwater management infrastructure, forest stand delineation, and landscape plantings. Pre-qualification is mandatory for bidders in both Parks-Recreation (I.1) and Roadways & Parking Lots (I.2) categories. The bid set includes comprehensive construction plans and specifications necessary for contractors to prepare accurate proposals for all project components.

The document establishes the technical requirements and design standards that form the basis for bid preparation and contract award. Contractors must demonstrate capability and experience in both park and recreational facility construction and roadway/parking infrastructure development to be eligible for bidding. The project represents a substantial public works undertaking requiring coordination across multiple construction disciplines, with the bid set serving as the definitive reference for scope, materials, methods, and performance standards that successful bidders will be contractually obligated to meet upon award.
