This document is Addendum No. 1 to the Request for Proposals issued by the Town of Willsboro, New York on October 28, 2026, for the Willsboro Bay Park Shoreline Access & Land Use Management Plan. The project seeks a comprehensive plan that balances the protection of water quality, grassland and migratory bird habitat, and other natural resources with appropriate public access and low-impact recreational opportunities, including potential features such as walking trails, birding stations, shoreline access, and interpretive or educational amenities. The required project completion deadline is December 1, 2027. Proposers must develop their work plans, schedules, and public engagement activities to meet this deadline. The Town anticipates public and stakeholder engagement as part of the planning process, and proposers should recommend an appropriate number of public meetings and stakeholder engagement opportunities, with hybrid meetings acceptable though in-person meetings preferred.

The addendum clarifies key proposal submission requirements: past project fees are optional and must be submitted in the Cost Proposal only, with all such information excluded from the Technical Proposal; the Town has not established page limits or minimum font sizes for the Technical Proposal, though submissions should use clear, professional formatting; and the Town has not identified a not-to-exceed consultant fee amount, requiring proposers to develop cost proposals based on the scope of services, approach, anticipated deliverables, and resources necessary. No set-asides for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Businesses, Minority Business Enterprises, Women Business Enterprises, or Disadvantaged Business Enterprises are applicable to this procurement. No incumbent has been identified as holding an identical or substantially similar contract within the past five years.

Date Issued: October 28, 2026

This Addendum No. 1 provides responses to questions received from prospective proposers regarding the above-referenced Request for Proposals. The following clarifications are hereby incorporated into the RFP. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged unless expressly modified herein.

Question 1: Past Project Fees

Section 5 requests the project value or fee of comparable projects, “if available,” while Section 6 excludes pricing and fee information from the Technical Proposal. Should past project fees be omitted from the Technical Proposal or included in the Cost Proposal?

Response: Past project fees are optional and are not required as part of the Technical Proposal.

Proposers who wish to provide fee or project-value information for comparable past projects shall include that information in the separate Cost Proposal. All past project fee information must be excluded from the Technical Proposal.

Question 2: Technical Proposal Format

Is there a page limit or minimum font size for the Technical Proposal?

Response: The Town has not established a page limit or minimum font size for the Technical Proposal. Proposers should use a clear, professional format that allows the Town to readily review and evaluate the submission.

Question 3: Available Consultant Budget

Can the Town share the budget or not-to-exceed amount available for consultant services under the grant?

Response: The Town has not established or identified a not-to-exceed consultant fee amount for purposes of this RFP. Proposers should develop their Cost Proposals based on the scope of services, proposed approach, anticipated deliverables, and resources necessary to complete the project. Proposals will be evaluated in accordance with the criteria established in Section 7 of the

RFP.

Question 4: Project Completion Date

The plan completion date is listed as TBD. Is there a grant deadline or required completion date the plan must meet?

Response: The required project completion deadline is December 1, 2027. Proposers shall account for this deadline when developing their proposed work plan, schedule, public engagement activities, and deliverables.

Question 5: Public Meetings

How many public meetings does the Town expect, and are virtual or hybrid meetings acceptable?

Response: The Town anticipates public and stakeholder engagement as part of the planning process. Proposers should identify a recommended number of public meetings and stakeholder engagement opportunities appropriate to the scope of work and describe their proposed approach in the Technical Proposal. Hybrid meetings are acceptable; however, in-person meetings are preferred when engaging project stakeholders and community members.

END OF ADDENDUM NO. 1
