Arbor Terrace Apartments ADA Sidewalks & Ramps Improvements Project

Clackamas County, through its Housing & Community Development Division, is procuring construction services for the Arbor Terrace Apartments ADA Sidewalks & Ramps Improvements Project via sealed bid on behalf of the Board of County Commissioners. The project scope includes ADA sidewalk and ramp replacements, parking lot resurfacing, and related site improvements at 120 N Cole Avenue, Molalla, Oregon 97038, with an estimated budget of $200,000 to $240,000. Sealed bids are due April 2, 2026, at 3:00 PM Pacific Time, and a mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for March 12, 2026, at 2:00 PM at the project site; attendance is required to submit a bid. The project timeline allows 60 days from Notice to Proceed to Substantial Completion and 90 days to Final Completion, with liquidated damages assessed at $500 per calendar day for failure to meet the Substantial Completion deadline. Qualified bidders must be registered with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board, maintain current Workers' Compensation insurance, and comply with both Oregon state prevailing wage requirements (BOLI) and federal Davis-Bacon standards, paying the higher of the two wage rates. A 10 percent bid bond or cashier's check is required with each bid submission, and the successful contractor must provide 100 percent performance and payment bonds; bids will be opened and read publicly via Zoom at the closing time with results posted to OregonBuys.

The project is subject to federal HUD Section 3 requirements and Community Development Block Grant regulations, requiring contractors to demonstrate Good Faith Effort by contacting at least three minority, women, or emerging small businesses for each division of work to be subcontracted, with documentation due within two hours of bid closing. No permits are determined necessary by the City of Molalla, simplifying the permitting process. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and includes standard Clackamas County General Conditions and Supplemental General Conditions addressing insurance, permits, wage compliance, and project administration. The project is federally funded through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which establishes specific compliance and reporting requirements throughout project execution. Bid documents are available through OregonBuys, serving as the central repository for all procurement information and submissions related to this opportunity.
