Santa Rosa County, Florida, is seeking bids for the Berrydale Volunteer Fire Department Administrative Building construction project through Bid No. 25-039. The procurement involves demolishing an existing structure and constructing a new 3,720 square foot administrative building located at 13000 Highway 87 in Jay, Florida. The project requires a comprehensive construction approach, including architectural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems that comply with the 2023 Florida Building Code and NFPA 101 Life Safety Code. Sealed bids are due by 10:00 am on Monday, July 21, 2025, through the county's procurement portal, with all specifications available on the same platform. Potential bidders must submit questions by 4:00 pm on Monday, July 7, 2025, and the contract has a maximum completion time of 240 calendar days from the notice to proceed. Bidders must provide a 5% bid guarantee in the form of a certified check or bid bond, and submit comprehensive documentation including insurance certificates, business authority proofs, references, and various certifications.

The county explicitly encourages participation from small businesses, minority/women-owned businesses, and disadvantaged business enterprises, with a clear non-discrimination policy that covers race, color, religion, national origin, disability, sex, and age in contract administration. The project requires bidders to provide proof of scrutinized companies list compliance and demonstrate ability to meet comprehensive technical specifications for building systems. While a specific budget is not explicitly stated, the detailed technical specifications and comprehensive architectural plans suggest a significant capital investment. The site is zoned HCD (Highway Commercial District) and will require a variance to reduce the front setback from 50' to 15'. The new facility will include multiple functional spaces such as offices, training rooms, bunkrooms, break room, and support areas, with careful consideration for fire department operational needs and accessibility requirements. The Board of County Commissioners reserves the right to waive irregularities, reject any or all bids, and award the contract to the proposal deemed most advantageous to Santa Rosa County.
