83-87 Park Street, Tupper Lake, NY

The Franklin County Economic Development Corporation (FCEDC) is seeking a contractor to complete building renovations at 83-87 Park Street in Tupper Lake, NY, a 6,080 square foot mixed-use two-story building constructed in 1969. The procurement opportunity involves comprehensive interior and exterior commercial renovation work, specifically focusing on installing steel headers, removing brick, creating a new steel frame opening, priming and painting steel, installing a UL 3-hour rated Class "A" fire door, and performing touch-up painting. Contractors must obtain all necessary permits, schedule required inspections, and ensure all work conforms to New York State Building Code and local building codes. A pre-bid site visit can be arranged by contacting Rachel Child, Community Development Specialist, and interested bidders must submit their proposals via email to help@adirondackfrontier.com by March 7, 2025, at 5:00 PM. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder as determined by FCEDC, with a potential alternative selection if the property owner prefers a different bid and agrees to cover the cost difference.

The contract includes specific subcontracting goals, with a 10% Minority Owned Sub-Contracting goal and a 10% Women Owned Sub-Contracting goal, though this is not a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Set Aside opportunity. Bidders are permitted to subcontract and must provide liability insurance naming FCEDC and Housing Trust Fund Corporation as additional insureds, as well as workers' compensation insurance. The project is funded through the Downtown Revitalization Initiative and is not subject to State Prevailing Wage or Federal Davis-Bacon Wage requirements. No business entities have been awarded an identical or substantially similar procurement contract within the past five years. The contract term is set for six months, with work to be performed in Franklin County, New York. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive renovation scope suggests a significant investment in modernizing and improving the mixed-use commercial property.
