Q1. What is the engineer's estimate for the project?

A1. $204,309.60 (As of 9/26/24)

Q2. Can a Certified Underground Utility Contractor participate in the bid?

A2. Yes. Section 6.5.1 (LICENSE AND CERTIFICATIONS Contractor License) has been updated to the language below.

Bidders must submit a copy of their current active State of Florida Certified General Contractor (CGC) license or Certified Underground Utility and Excavation Contractor (CUC) license. This license must be issued by the State of Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board in accordance with Florida Statutes, Chapter 489. Additionally, bidders must ensure they are licensed by any other federal, state, county, and municipal agencies that may have jurisdiction over the type of work performed under this contract.

Q3. While every effort will be made to minimize damage to asphalt, there will likely be some loss of asphalt when removing and replacing the curb inlets (or during pipe bursting) on this project. What spec should be used for replacement? Should this scope be included with the inlets?

A3. Please find city standards and details at https://www.leesburgflorida.gov/my_city/departments/pnz/css.php

Q4. So far, due to a lack of local labor because of the "low" project quantity of pipe bursting, it has been difficult to secure anyone to do the pipe bursting scope. Due to limited access and

Addendum No. 1 https://www.leesburgflorida.gov/my_city/departments/pnz/css.php large existing trees directly in line with the proposed storm runs, will open cut removal and replacement of storm pipe be acceptable?

If open cut is acceptable, removal and replacement of existing fencing and landscaping will be included. Should replacement of trees be included and to what extent?

A4. Open cut will only be used as a last resort. We want to preserve as much tree cover as possible. If trees must be removed, open cut is acceptable, but each tree removed must be replaced at a one-to-one ratio.

A7. No, we do not have control over any fiber communications.

Q8. The pipe run at the Crest Avenue intersection is extremely close to a power pole. Are we to include the cost of pole holding?

A8. Yes, include any pricing needed to complete the job.

Q9. Regardless of method of construction access to some properties will be required due to clearing at the outfall at Lake Robinhood or for pits needed for pipe bursting. Will access need to be granted by the affected resident(s)?

A9. Yes, you will need to get permission from the residents affected.
