This document is an Abstract of Bids for the City of Kissimmee's Haven on Vine Renovation Project (RFP2025-010), which was opened for bid on 5/20/2025 at 2:30 P.M. The project is divided into four distinct phases: Phase 1A (renovating 43 efficiency studio apartments in the main building), Phase 1B (updating ten fourplex apartment buildings), Phase 2A (renovating 40 additional efficiency studio apartments in an annex building), and Phase 2B (converting a storage building into office and administration space). Five construction companies submitted bids, with total project costs ranging from $249,657 (Miniopolis, LLC) to $14,129,000 (Gibraltar Construction), and bid submission times between 5/9/2025 and 5/20/2025.

The bid abstract reveals significant price variation among bidders, with 2 W Solutions submitting the lowest total bid at $2,193,850.00 and Gibraltar Construction offering the highest at $14,129,000.00. Four of the five bidders acknowledged project addendums, and the companies represent locations across Florida (Ocoee, Miami, Fort Myers, Kissimmee) and one from Maryland (Annapolis). The project appears to be a comprehensive affordable housing renovation initiative, transforming a former Super 8 hotel into housing units, with potential funding from multiple sources including American Rescue Funds, County and City funds, HOME Investment Partnerships, and Community Development Block Grant. The bidding process allows for protest proceedings if filed within prescribed deadlines, with notifications to be posted electronically on the City's website.
