Added: May 17, 2010 5:39 pm The bid bond and performance bonds only apply to the siding and stucco costs of the solicitation. See amendment 0003.



You are to acknowledge amendment 0003 and the new solcitation dated 17 May 2010 with your proposal. Amendments 0001 and 0002 are cancelled as well as the original solcitation.

Added: May 17, 2010 4:24 pm %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%The solicitation was issued as a commerical service request for proposals, however there were inquiries on whether a bid bond was required.



After revisiting the specifications, a mistake was made. The painting is a commerical service however the siding removal/repair or replacement is construction. Therefore the original solicitation issued May 5, 2010 is deleted in its entirety as well as the amendments issued against it (Amendments 0001 and 0002).



The replacement construction RFP is attached to this notice under the same solicitation number dated 17 May 2010. You must acknowledge at time of offer that you are bidding the new solicitation issued 17 May 2010.



A bid bond is required.
