A) This project is not sales tax exempt.

2. Where will the designated parking area be for workers accessing the construction site?

A) Designated parking area will be determined at pre-con meeting with winning contractor.

3. Will the government accept the use of the industry leading Procore Project Management software as the primary submittal and data tracking tool for this project?

A) Name and contacts will be given after award.

5. Due to current potentially significant tariffs being placed on the importation of building materials such as wood or steel by the current Presidential Executive Branch, if a tariff is placed after bid time and before award will the government consider a price escalation on a contract value for products such as steel or wood should the executive branch levee tariffs effecting such materials? Most of these materials would still have been Buy American compliant as the tariffs would increase pricing on all steel or wood materials, regardless of origin.
