Overview

Demolition of residential and commercial structures is being undertaken as an approved eligible activity under the Genesee County Land Bank Authority (GCLBA) Demolition Program. GCLBA invites the submission of bids from pre-qualified contractors added to GCLBA’s Bidder’s List that are experienced and licensed to conduct the abatement, demolition and disposal of residential and commercial structures located in Genesee County.

“Bidders” means the companies or individuals that submit bids in response to this IFB.

“Contractor” means the Bidder whose bid submitted in response to this IFB is selected for award of a contract.

All Bidders and Contractors, their representatives, employees, and subcontractors are expected to maintain a friendly and professional demeanor whenever interacting with the public, Genesee County Land Bank, or any representative of an enforcement agency or regulatory authority. This includes interactions among Bidders and Contractors at bid openings and in the execution of any such work contracted by GCLBA. Bidders and Contractors that violate this code of conduct may be subject to consequences.

Nothing in this IFB shall be construed to create any legal obligation on the part of GCLBA or any Bidder. GCLBA reserves the rights, in its sole discretion, to amend, suspend, terminate, or re-issue this IFB in whole or in part, at any stage. In no event shall GCLBA be liable to Bidders for any cost or damages incurred in connection with the IFB process, including but not limited to, any and all costs of preparing a response to this IFB or any other costs incurred in reliance on this IFB.

No Bidder shall be entitled to repayment from GCLBA for any costs, expenses or fees related to this IFB. All supporting documentation submitted in response to this IFB will become the property of the GCLBA. Bidders may also withdraw their interest in the IFB, in writing, at any point in time as more information becomes known. Bids offering less than thirty (30) days for acceptance by the Genesee County Land Bank from the date set for opening will be considered non-responsive and will be rejected.

Only firms/contractors that are pre-qualified and have been added to GCLBA’s Bidder List can respond to IFB’s issued by the GCLBA.

3/14/25 Page 7

We utilize www.box.com to share information with and receive information from bidders and/or contractors. Prospective bidders will want to create an account with Box to be able to review pertinent data regarding bids, such as environmental reports. It is anticipated that a free individual account should suffice. We do not require bidders or contractors to purchase a plan through Box.com.

In order to prepare a responsive bid, bidders must review Environmental Site Assessments and Pre-demolition surveys. To gain access to these files e-mail the request to the GCLBA representative identified on the cover sheet, or the “Submittal Due Date.” Bidders will be invited to review information via Box.com.

Contractors are encouraged to conduct outreach to minority-, women- and disadvantaged business owners to achieve any of the work outlined in the scope of work. For each proposed subcontractor, bidder should complete “Subcontractor Procurement and Outreach Report” for each scope subcontracted. Additionally, GCLBA must be provided proof of appropriate certifications and insurances along with the prime contractor’s request for subcontractor approval. Contractors are expected to manage their subcontractor(s) to fulfill the indicated scope. Contractor(s) will be held responsible for all work performed by their subcontractor.

Contractors will be required to use the GCLBA designated file sharing program to upload all required documentation and payment packets.

Due to time constraints of the blight elimination program GCLBA does not anticipate allowing for any contract extensions. Bidders should review the timeline and confirm they have the capacity to complete the abatements and demolitions according to the schedule in this IFB.

SELECTION PROCESS

A Review Team selected by GCLBA will review qualifications in accordance with the evaluation criteria set forth herein. Bids that are submitted on time and comply with the mandatory requirements of the Invitation For Bids (IFB) will be evaluated in accordance with the terms of the IFB.

EVALUATION CRITERIA AND SCORING

Beginning with the lowest cost proposal, the Review Team will evaluate bids received and identify the submittals that are the most responsive, responsible and offer the best service to the GCLBA.

Additional proposals will only be evaluated if the award is not made to one of the three lowest cost proposals. The GCLBA will consider Bidder qualifications, financial viability, project references, experience with comparable projects, and current and future capacity based on projects with concurrent timelines.

Structures in Genesee County:

DATE:

NAME OF

BIDDER:

ADDRESS

TELEPHONE:

TO: Genesee County Land Bank Authority (hereinafter called “GCLBA”)

To Whom It May Concern:

The Bidder, in compliance with your invitation for bids for the environmental abatement and demolition and disposal of Residential and Commercial Structures having examined Bid #LB: 25- 001 prepared by the Genesee County Land Bank, and other related documents and being familiar with site of proposed work, and with all conditions surrounding demolition of the listed property(ies) including availability of materials and labor, hereby propose to furnish all labor, materials, tools, equipment, machinery, equipment rental, transportation, superintendence, perform all work, provide all services, and to perform all work in accordance with Bid #LB: 25- 001, within time set forth herein, at prices stated below. These prices are to cover all expenses incurred in performing work required under Scope of Work, of which this Bid/Tender is a part.

Successful Bidder agrees to provide performance and payment bonds written by surety acceptable to GCLBA; made in favor of GCLBA as obligee. The Bidder recognizes that the GCLBA may award the bid packages separately and not as a total contract.

Adjustments to bid- In the event a structure or structures itemized on this bid is destroyed or substantially destroyed by fire or other calamity beyond its present condition as determined by the GCLBA, or environmental hazards are found, at any time prior to actual demolition, the Authority reserves the right to remove the structure from the bid; or in the event of bid award, to remove the structures(s) from the award and reduce the price by the Contractors’ bid for that structure(s).

GCLBA reserves the right to cancel any project(s) that has been issued on a bid or entered into a contract if GCLBA has deemed project(s) infeasible and is unable to proceed with the demolition.

ATTENTION:

This section highlights information that has been overlooked or resulted in confusion for previous bidders. Please be sure to take the following under advisement prior to completing your bid.

• Where surveys are incomplete due to mitigatable conditions (blocked stairwells, debris, flooded basements, etc.), GCLBA is requesting bidders to provide pricing to address conditions so that a thorough survey can be made prior to demolition. Bidders are to include cost to address conditions and coordinate completing survey with Genesee County Land Bank Authority (GCLBA) and surveyor BEFORE completing ANY abatement activities. GCLBA may not reimburse contractor for universal or asbestos abatement activity undertaken prior to a thorough survey being completed. Debris removal should be undertaken with the oversight of an asbestos competent person. Non-contaminated debris is to be removed to a dumpster and disposed of in a landfill. GCLBA is to be notified if suspect material is encountered during debris removal. It is anticipated that bidders are including costs to address existing conditions for abatement/demolition as necessary where through surveys have been completed. Change Orders will not be accepted on these properties for access mitigation activities.

• Dewatering must be completed per municipal requirements. In the City of Flint, dewatering for any reason will be undertaken by the contractor their own cost under GCLBA’s permit with the City of Flint. Requirements for testing and requesting a variance within the City of Flint can be found on GCLBA’s website on the Contracts and Bids page under “Other Resources for Active Contractors.”

• Some of the properties contain vermiculite and bidders are to use caution during demolition and remain vigilant for fugitive vermiculite. Quantities listed in surveys are only estimates.

Contractors are to satisfy themselves as to actual quantities prior to submitting a bid.

• GCLBA does not test for the presence of lead in structures to be demolished. Contractors are to assume lead is present and are to take all necessary measures to protect human health and safety in performance of the work.

• Regulatory exemptions exist for the removal and disposal of environmental hazardous materials from residential structures. Regardless of any regulatory exemption, the GCLBA has decided to divert certain waste from landfill disposal and therefore will identify select materials during the pre-demolition survey, which will require manifesting and

Please be advised that flat rate bids may be rejected. Bids must be based upon actual costs.

Should Bidder submit flat rates for the for any portion of the scope, please include a short narrative explaining the methods used to reach the amounts bid (i.e. if using a percentage of demolition costs, how did Bidder arrive at the percentage calculation? What is the percentage being used?). Bidders should be prepared to demonstrate reasonableness of bid with supporting documentation upon request.

Bid Number: 25-001 transportation to a licensed treatment, storage, or disposal facility or other appropriate disposal location. A site specific Pre-Demolition Hazardous Materials Survey has been prepared by others and is available via a GCLBA designated file sharing service upon request.

• It is the policy and practice of the GCLBA to abate what can feasibly be abated despite the condition of the structure, whether or not a structure will ultimately be demolished as asbestos containing. Conditions inhibiting the abatement of identified materials must be thoroughly documented and explained.
