OWNER’S BID PROPOSAL FORM

OWNER: City of College Park 3667 Main Street College Park, GA 30337

PROJECT: Environmental Consultant Firm

DATE: January 12, 2023

BID #020723 is hereby revised as instructed throughout attached ADDENDUM No. 1.

This Addendum forms a part of the contract documents and modifies the original bid documents.

The following items shall take precedence over the originally published bid documents for the above-named project and shall become a part of the contract documents.

1. The Project Overview (page 22) states that the City was awarded an EPA Brownfield Assessment Grant in 2017. Are the funds from that grant to be utilized for this contract or from another more recent grant award? Please clarify.

a. The 2017 has been completed, new funding starting 2019 and still active. The awardee will be dealing with funds from 2019 until present.

2. Clarification of Due Date: The RFQC states that “Proposals will be received no later than Tuesday, February 3, 2023 at 9:30 am (EST) at the Jack P. Longino City Hall, attn: Park Purchasing Department, 3667 Main Street, College Park Georgia, 30337. Proposals received after the above date and time, or in any other location other than the Purchasing Department will not be considered.” … February 3rd falls on Friday, not Tuesday, so can you please confirm the Due Date? –

a. Typographical error; Proposals will be received no later than Tuesday, February 7, 2023 at 9:30 am (EST) – The bid open to announce the offerors will take place promptly at 10:00 am (EST).

3. Clarification as to the Last Day to ask Questions; and the Date for expected Posting of Answers and Clarification to Questions asked? Do you expect to post answers to questions the same day they’re asked, January 31, 2023? –

a. All questions should be forwarded for a response no later than 12:00 pm on January 31, 2023, for a response. Questions are responded to individually, prior to the Addendum(s) being posted to City’s website. If an abundance of identical questions is received, additional Addendum(s) will be published.

4. Request greater time between the Posting of Answers and Clarifications to Questions, and the Due Date: Is it possible to extend the Due Date to allow more accurate and comprehensive Proposal Responses (especially if Answers to Questions and Clarifications impact Proposal Responses)? I certainly understand if No is the answer, but you can’t say No if I don’t ask. I want to ensure time to build the best and most appropriate Team of Professionals, capable of performing all tasks associated with this US EPA Brownfields Assessment Grant to the greatest benefit to the City of College Park, Georgia

a. If other offerors request an extension to the submission, this will be reviewed and taken into consideration.
