4101-4103 SW Adams Commercial Demolition and Site Restoration

The City of Peoria is requesting proposals for demolition and site restoration of a two-story masonry commercial building at 4101-4103 SW Adams Street, with proposals due September 3, 2026 at 2:00 p.m., and a mandatory site visit on August 25, 2026 at 11:00 a.m.

This is a public works project subject to the Illinois Prevailing Wage Act. The scope encompasses full structural demolition of the approximately 25,000-square-foot building with a significantly deteriorated barrel roof, removal of all materials including subgrade materials and paved surfaces, clearing and backfilling of any subgrade space discovered during demolition, site grading for stormwater management, and seeding for grass growth. Contractors must verify actual dimensions and material quantities on site; any basement discovered must be cleared and backfilled. An asbestos inspection report identifies friable pipe insulation and transite pipe requiring abatement during demolition.

Contractors must demonstrate good faith efforts to utilize M/WBE subcontractors, with current workforce utilization goals of 18 percent minority and 4 percent women. A local vendor preference providing a 3 percent margin applies to qualified local vendors on purchases of ten thousand dollars or greater.

The contract requires a 10 percent bid bond, performance bond equal to the full contract amount, and payment bond equal to the full contract amount. Required insurance includes general liability ($1 million per occurrence / $2 million aggregate) and workers' compensation, with the City named as additional insured. Prevailing wage compliance with certified monthly payroll reporting is mandatory.

Work must be completed within one month of notice to proceed, with anticipated project start within 30 days of City Council approval. Evaluation criteria: Project Cost (45 points), Project Approach (20 points), Experience (20 points), and Qualifications and Timeline Conformance (15 points), totaling 1,000 points. Award goes to the lowest cost responsive and responsible bidder. Sealed proposals must be submitted in three hardcopy copies to Peoria City Hall Purchasing Division or electronically through BidNet. Invoicing may occur weekly, with payment due within 30 days of invoice.
