2025 CDBG Water & Sewer System Improvement

The City of Barnesville, Georgia is requesting sealed proposals for FY 2025 CDBG Water and Sewer System Improvements (C&S Project No. B2595.014), with proposals due July 28, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. at the Barnesville Civic Center. The project is subject to Section 3 of the HUD Act of 1968 and Build America, Buy America Act requirements, mandating that iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials be produced in the United States absent approved waivers — a compliance filter affecting material sourcing.

The scope includes replacement of 72 water line services, 1,800 linear feet of 8-inch cured-in-place piping rehabilitation, 42 sewer line services, 5 sewer point repairs, and 5,500 square yards of asphalt mill and overlay with appurtenances. All work is awarded in a single contract and must be completed within 150 consecutive calendar days. Proposals must include a bid bond or certified cashier's check equal to at least 10 percent of the base proposal; surety companies must hold minimum "A" ratings and financial strength of at least five times the contract price. The successful proposer will be required to provide Performance and Payment Bonds each equal to 100 percent of the contract price.

Contractors must hold a valid Georgia State Utility Contractor license and employ a Utility Manager certification holder, with the license number required on both the proposal envelope and proposal form. All proposers must register with E-Verify and submit an Affidavit of Compliance with O.C.G.A. 13-10-91. Funding is provided through the Community Development Block Grant Program administered by the Georgia Department of Community Affairs. Complete specifications and contract documents are available through www.cartersloope.com/outforbid and Quest CDN (project number 10238163) for a $50 download fee. The City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and waive informalities.
