This is Addendum #3 to a Request for Bids issued by Bastrop County, Texas for Animal Shelter Kennel Construction (RFB 25BCP10D). The project involves constructing a new 100-foot by 40-foot pre-engineered metal building at 589 Cool Water Dr, Bastrop, TX 78602, on the north side of the existing Kennel A. The scope of work includes site preparation, foundation construction, metal building erection, mechanical/electrical/plumbing work, and interior finish-out with specialized kennel fencing and coating systems.

The original bid due date of October 23, 2025, was previously extended to November 11, 2025, via Addendum #1; the further extension to November 14, 2025, accommodates the county's closure for Veterans Day on November 11, 2025. A mandatory pre-bid meeting was scheduled for October 9, 2025, at the project site. Respondents must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by providing a signed copy with their sealed bid submission, with failure to do so potentially resulting in disqualification.

Bidders are required to submit a comprehensive lump-sum proposal covering all tasks outlined in the solicitation documents and must provide a mandatory 5% bid bond. Evaluation criteria include price, bidder experience and reputation, service quality, impact on historically underutilized businesses, safety record, proposed personnel, and financial capabilities. Contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and automobile liability policies. The project is subject to state and local regulatory compliance provisions, including restrictions on boycotts and requirements for recovered materials usage. The anticipated contract award is projected for November 2025, with consideration given to local economic impact and vendor diversity. While no specific budget range is stated, the comprehensive nature of the turnkey construction contract suggests a significant capital investment.
