Addendum #01 to RFB 951300-01 for CHMHI Tuckpointing Phase 2.2
This is Addendum #01 issued on April 28, 2026, by the Iowa Department of Administrative Services (DAS) for the Cherokee Mental Health Institute (CHMHI) Tuckpointing Phase 2.2 project in Cherokee, Iowa. The project entails exterior masonry repairs including tuckpointing, brick replacement, stone repairs, and repointing across multiple campus buildings. The scope is divided into two bid packages: Option #1 encompasses the Administration, Rear Center, North A/B/C, and South A/B/C buildings with estimated quantities including 14,000 SF of brick repointing, 60 brick replacements, and 1,545 LF of stone repointing; Option #2 covers the Voldeng Building with 7,168 SF of brick repointing and 70 brick replacements. Three unit price line items are available for additional tuckpointing work at four-square-foot increments, deep joint repairs at two-square-foot increments, and brick replacement per unit. The pre-bid meeting was held April 23, 2026, with written questions due by April 28, 2026. Bids were due May 4, 2026, at 2:00 PM through the IMPACS Electronic Procurement System with bid opening at 3:00 PM. Substantial completion has been extended to June 25, 2027, and construction may begin prior to August 2026 once submittals are approved.
The addendum clarifies critical site-specific requirements and operational constraints for this state facility. Lifts and materials cannot be stored in patient outdoor access areas within secure fences; only designated areas marked in green on drawings are permitted for overnight equipment storage, with keys required to be removed daily to prevent patient climbing risks. All construction workers require background checks with a processing timeline of one to two weeks. Contractors must conduct daily sweeps to ensure no materials or tools are left in patient areas, provide their own water source for mortar mixing, and coordinate deliveries with the facility providing 24-hour notice. Project budgets are specified as $335,770.80 for Option #1 and $132,022.00 for Option #2, with state sales tax exemption applied. A hazardous materials survey identified asbestos-containing materials in red stone grout around windows (200 LF at 15% chrysotile) and white caulk (10 LF at 2% chrysotile), as well as lead-based paint in all eight window paint samples tested, ranging from 4.5% to 17% lead content. All subcontractors and suppliers must be identified within 48 hours of bid submission; bid security of 5% of the total bid amount is required along with performance and payment bonds.
