CDBG - 4087 Pinto Road Home Rehabilitation - Water Well

Clay County, Florida is seeking qualified and licensed water well contractors to complete a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) home rehabilitation project located at 4087 Pinto Road in Middleburg. The primary objectives include abandoning an existing residential well and constructing a new potable water well, with all work required to comply with Florida Department of Environmental Protection, St. Johns River Water Management District, and Florida Department of Health regulations. This Request for Quotation (RFQ #25/26-002) mandates a pre-proposal meeting on October 13, 2025, at 1:00 pm at the project site, with quotation responses due by October 20, 2025, at 4:00 pm. Contractors must submit electronic responses and demonstrate the ability to self-perform at least 40% of the work. The project has a substantial completion timeline of 60 days from the Notice to Proceed, with final completion required within 30 calendar days after the county delivers a punch list. Evaluation criteria will consider Section 3 business concerns and potential price matching for qualifying bidders.

The procurement is federally funded through the HUD Community Development Block Grant Entitlement Program, with specific provisions prioritizing economic opportunities for low- and very-low income persons. Contractors must provide comprehensive documentation including a W-9, Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) authorization, valid licenses, certifications, insurance certificates, and various federal and local compliance forms. While no specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, contractors must maintain specific insurance coverages and adhere to detailed compliance requirements. The project includes line items for mobilization, well abandonment, well construction, equipment installation, and site restoration, to be quoted as lump sum prices. Contractors will be required to provide a two-year warranty covering all labor, materials, and work, with an obligation to remedy any defects at their sole expense and respond to warranty calls within 24 hours of notification. The specific budget range is not explicitly stated in the documentation, but the project is part of a home rehabilitation initiative targeting specific residential infrastructure improvements.
