This document is a technical exhibit for the CDBG-DR East Taylor Road flood mitigation project issued by Volusia County's Office of Recovery and Resiliency in DeLand, Florida. The project seeks design and engineering services for stormwater infrastructure improvements intended to address hurricane-related damage from Hurricane Ian (September 2022) and Hurricane Milton (October 2024) within the 1,080-acre Lake Towanda basin. The scope encompasses twenty deliverables including topographic and boundary surveys, environmental review with wetland delineation and endangered species surveys, utility identification, pre-application regulatory meetings, geotechnical and subsurface utility engineering, and construction documents at 30%, 60%, 90%, and 100% completion phases. The procurement timeline establishes a question submission deadline of May 7, 2026, with a response deadline of 3:00 p.m. on May 21, 2026. The overall project schedule allocates nine months for final design and permitting, three months for bid advertisement and contractor selection, sixteen months for construction, and two months for grant closeout. Qualifications will be evaluated based on firm qualifications and assigned personnel (30% weight), relevant experience with minimum five years in stormwater design, floodplain management, environmental engineering, and state and federal permitting (40% weight), and project approach and methodology (30% weight).

The contract will be awarded to one or multiple firms for an initial term through project completion, with compensation structured through task assignments on fixed fee, time and materials, cost-plus-fixed-fee, or guaranteed maximum-not-to-exceed bases. Specific contract values are not disclosed in the available documents. The project is funded through a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Community Development Block Grant for Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR). Respondents must comply with federal E-Verify requirements, register with SAM.gov, maintain Florida professional licensing, provide debarment certifications, and submit human trafficking attestations. Required insurance includes workers' compensation, commercial general liability with $1,000,000 each-occurrence and $2,000,000 general aggregate limits, auto liability with $1,000,000 combined single limits, and professional liability with $2,000,000 per claim and aggregate limits, with the County named as additional insured. The County will remit payment on undisputed invoices within forty-five business days of receipt and retains the right to reject proposals and terminate the contract with thirty days' notice or for non-appropriation of funds.
