This is a Contractor Warranty Letter issued by the Clay County Board of County Commissioners for the Construction of Radar Road project (IFB #25/26-010) in Florida. The warranty document outlines the contractor's obligation to guarantee all labor, materials, and work performed on the project are compliant with contract documents and authorized modifications. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for October 29, 2025, at the Clay County Administration Building, with bids due on November 20, 2025, at 4:00 pm and bid opening on November 21, 2025. The project encompasses the construction of approximately 1,950 linear feet of roadway connecting Town Center Boulevard to US Highway 17, including clearing and grubbing, earthwork, traffic control, paving, storm drainage, utility adjustments, landscaping, irrigation, signage, and pavement markings. The substantial completion timeline is 345 days from the Notice to Proceed, with final completion required 30 calendar days after delivery of the punch list.

The warranty period extends for two years from the Date of Completion and acceptance by the Clay County Board of County Commissioners, during which the contractor agrees to remedy all defects resulting from improper materials, workmanship, or arrangement at its sole expense and respond to warranty calls within twenty-four hours of notification. Bidders must be pre-qualified with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) in specific fields including flexible pavement, drainage, grading, sidewalk, pavement marking, roadway signage, and underground utilities. Contractors must submit a 5% bid bond, maintain proof of insurance and workers' compensation coverage, self-perform at least 40% of the work, and have been in business for a minimum of 5 years performing similar work. The warranty does not apply to work that has been abused or neglected by the owner, damage caused by Acts of God, or normal wear and tear, and does not preclude or replace additional warranties required by the Contract Documents.
