About this file
This is an Addendum No. 1 issued by Richard Y. Johnson & Son, Inc. (Construction Manager) on behalf of the Capital School District for the demolition of William Henry School located at 65 Carver Road, Dover, Delaware. The project, designated as Bid Pac A Contract A-1, involves the complete demolition of the existing William Henry School building and selective demolition of an attached structure, with associated erosion and sediment controls. The scope of work requires contractors to remove all refrigerants from HVAC units, drinking fountains, PTAC units, and wall units; disconnect electrical systems; remove all sidewalks and paving within the lines of demarcation; separate the building at the connection point to the Kent County Community Center while maintaining a waterproof and accessible enclosure; and comply with all asbestos abatement contractor responsibilities as outlined in the provided asbestos report. The pre-bid meeting was held on August 5, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. at William Henry School, and sealed bids are due by 12:00 p.m. on August 20, 2026, at the Capital School District Office located at 198 Commerce Way, Dover, Delaware, with public bid opening at 2:00 p.m. at William Henry School's auditorium. The demolition is scheduled to start in late September with an expected four-month completion duration. Written requests for information (RFIs) must be submitted by 12:00 noon on Friday, August 14, 2026, to Construction Manager Jesse Dixon at jdixon@ryjson.com.
A 10 percent bid bond is required with each submission, and performance and payment bonds equal to 100 percent of the contract price are required upon contract execution. This is a state wage-rated project subject to Delaware prevailing wage requirements under Delaware Code Title 29, Section 6960. All prime contractors must submit signed affidavits certifying compliance with employee drug testing regulations and craft training requirements. Contractors are responsible for obtaining all permits, licenses, and inspection fees except the demolition permit, which the owner provides. The contractor bears the cost of repairing any utility damage resulting from failure to properly locate underground utilities, while the owner bears impact and user fees. Bids remain binding for thirty days following opening, and award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder within thirty days of bid opening. Construction documents are available through www.ryjson.com or may be purchased from RCI Printing & Graphics in New Castle, Delaware, and bidders must use the full set of bidding documents from the RYJ website rather than documents available on the MyMarketplace State of Delaware website.
