Macon County Finance Department is requesting bids on boardwalk repair at two county parks and recreation facilities, with bids due July 16, 2026 at 4:00 p.m., and a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting scheduled for July 8, 2026 at 10:30 a.m. at the Tassee Shelter site.

Bidders must hold a current North Carolina General Contractor's license. The scope encompasses removal and replacement of decking boards and deck railing at two locations: the Tassee Shelter boardwalk (877 Ulco Drive, Franklin) and the Parker Meadows Complex boardwalk (4306 Patton Road, Franklin). The Tassee Shelter project involves approximately 1,025 square feet of decking boards and 2,050 linear feet of deck railing; the Parker Meadows Complex project involves approximately 2,240 square feet of decking boards and 4,480 linear feet of deck railing. Both projects require pressure washing of existing deck frames, which will be retained and reused. All work must be completed by December 1, 2026.

Minimum insurance requirements are $2 million in general liability coverage with Macon County named as secondary insured, $1 million in automobile liability coverage, and workers' compensation insurance. Proof of insurance must be submitted prior to work commencement. Sealed bids must be delivered in person to the Macon County Finance Department using provided bid forms; electronically transmitted bids will not be accepted. Bids must include a Non-Collusion Affidavit and separate pricing for each boardwalk project. Payment will be made by check within thirty days after project completion, final inspection, and acceptance by the Parks and Recreation Director. The county reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids and to waive any bid requirements. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible, responsive bidder.
