About this file

This is Addendum No. 1 to Invitation for Bid (IFB) 26-005-HG issued by the City of Leesburg, Florida, for the Beecher Street Sidewalk Project (CDBG). The addendum clarifies that bidder qualifications will be evaluated per Section 6.4 of the solicitation and establishes revised timelines for project activities. The project requires a Florida-licensed certified General Contractor (CGC) or certified Building Contractor (CBC) to construct a sidewalk on West Beecher Street from Johns Avenue to Berry Park entrance, including crosswalks and pedestrian ramps compliant with current ADA standards. Two non-mandatory pre-bid conferences are scheduled for Thursday, January 8, 2026, and Thursday, January 22, 2026, both at 10:00 A.M. at the Venetian Center in Leesburg. Bid specification questions are due by Monday, January 12, 2026, and Monday, January 26, 2026, by 12:00 P.M. Addenda will be issued by 4:30 P.M. on Thursday, January 15, 2026, and Thursday, January 29, 2026. The revised bid due date and opening is Thursday, February 5, 2026, at 11:00 A.M., with the opening conducted immediately thereafter via Zoom. Bid tabulation is due within two working days after opening, with an Intent to Award Recommendation issued by Friday, February 19, 2026, and final City Commission award at the next scheduled meeting.

The project is funded through Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) dollars. The addendum addresses a request from interested parties regarding contractor licensing requirements, confirming that bidders without CGC or CBC licenses will have their qualifications evaluated according to the established evaluation criteria. All bidders must acknowledge receipt of Addendum No. 1 on their Proposal Bid Form, and any previously submitted bids should be revised to reflect this addendum.

DATE: January 7, 2026 TO: All Interested Bidders and Other Interested Parties FROM: Hosea Goodwyn, Procurement Manager

The City makes the following changes, additions, deletions, information, and/or clarifications and now considers the addendum a part of the IFB Document. Bidders must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by indicating receipt in the space provided on the Proposal Bid Form.

If the bidder has already submitted the Proposal Bid Form to the City’s Procurement Division, the Bidder should revise their electronic submission to include this addendum. In any case, the submission of a bid is an acknowledgment of receipt of the addendum. The City will construe all bids received as though the Bidder has received and acknowledged the addendum.

Below is the City’s reply to RFIs (Request for Information – a/k/a bid inquiries or questions) submitted by interested parties by the posted deadline to submit RFIs.

Q1. Concrete is a specialty for our team but we're a civil contractor not a GC. CGC or CBC licenses are typically required for building structures taller than 5ft. Can we still submit a bid without these licenses?

A1. Submissions will be evaluated per Section 6.4 (Contractor Qualifications and Evaluation of Bidder).

The following changes are hereby made part of the solicitation.
