EXHIBIT_O_Decibel_Limitsby_Receiving_Land_Use_Occupancy.pdf

This is an exhibit document for a ground lease solicitation issued by Volusia County, Florida, detailing decibel limits for a proposed motocross park facility based on receiving land use and occupancy classifications. The exhibit establishes noise level restrictions that the selected Concessionaire must comply with during design, permitting, and operation of the regional motocross park on approximately 77 acres of County-owned property located on State Road 44, ten miles east of DeLand, Florida. The noise standards specified in this exhibit are critical operational parameters that will govern the facility's activities, including motocross racing, practice sessions, training events, and related motorized recreation. A mandatory pre-proposal conference is scheduled for February 27, 2026, at 9:30 AM with a site visit to follow, questions must be submitted by March 10, 2026, at 11:59 PM, and proposals are due March 31, 2026, by 3:00 PM. The selected Concessionaire will enter a thirty-year ground lease agreement and assume full responsibility for all financing, development, operations, and maintenance at its sole expense, with construction required to commence following permit issuance and be completed within twenty-four months of the lease effective date.

The decibel limits established in this exhibit serve as enforceable operational constraints that respondents must incorporate into their business and operational plans during the proposal evaluation process. Volusia County will contribute up to $1.25 million from voter-approved ECHO program funds toward eligible infrastructure improvements, while the Concessionaire must demonstrate financial capacity through recent financial statements and letters of intent from financing sources. All respondents must obtain payment and performance bonds equal to one hundred percent of project costs and secure comprehensive insurance coverages including commercial general liability with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $5,000,000 general aggregate, commercial auto liability, excess liability of $5,000,000, and environmental site pollution liability of $2,000,000 per incident before lease execution. The initial monthly rent must be not less than $4,000 per month for the first five years with annual Consumer Price Index adjustments beginning in year five, and evaluation criteria include qualifications and experience (27 points), operational and business plan viability (25 points), community benefit plan (15 points), financial ability (15 points), financial proposal pricing (20 points), and value-added amenities (2 points).
