EC25-09-020-67 Addendum #2 5.8.25.rtf

Addendum #2 is an amendment to the Maryland state contract opportunity for Patapsco Valley State Parks Pickall Shelter Renovations, issued by Howard County. The document extends the Q&A period for the task order solicitation, with the new Q&A due date set for May 9, 2025. The project involves comprehensive renovation work to replace rotted wood columns across thirteen shelters located in the Pickall Area of Patapsco Valley State Park at 8125 Johnny Cake Road in Elkridge, Maryland. Contractors are required to provide all necessary labor, equipment, materials, supplies, and insurance to complete the structural repairs.

The solicitation was originally posted on April 9, 2025, with proposals initially due by May 8, 2025, offering a 29-day response window for interested vendors. While specific budget details are not provided, the project requires contractors to demonstrate expertise in park infrastructure renovation, structural wood replacement, and compliance with state park maintenance standards. The contract opportunity appears to be a new initiative targeting the replacement of damaged support columns across multiple shelter structures to ensure structural integrity and safety for park visitors. Although no explicit set-aside designations are mentioned, Maryland state contracts typically include provisions for disadvantaged business enterprises and local small business participation.
