About this file

The document is a Request for Qualifications (RFQA) issued by the Town of Clinton, Connecticut, for the Abraham Pierson School General Contractor project. The solicitation, numbered TH2025-03, seeks qualified construction firms to redevelop the historic Abraham Pierson School into up to 50 units of residential senior apartments. The procurement is open from March 31, 2025, to April 25, 2025, with the project to be funded through 9% Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) and Historic Tax Credits (HTC). Interested general contractors must be licensed in Connecticut, have a minimum of five years of residential construction experience, and provide reference letters from clients and material suppliers.

The project requires bidders to demonstrate a payment and performance bonding capacity of $20 million per project, maintain commercial general liability insurance coverage of at least $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate with $5 million in excess liability coverage, and have completed at least one similar project funded by CHFA and/or DOH within the past five years. The primary contact is Andrea Kretchmer from Xenolith Partners LLC, reachable at 917-747-8396 or andrea@xenolithpartners.com. While no specific set-aside designations are mentioned, the project focuses on creating affordable senior housing through a complex tax credit financing structure. The substantial bonding capacity requirement suggests a significant project scope involving adaptive reuse of the historic school building into residential apartments for seniors.
