Collapsed Stormwater Pipe-Summerhaven

The City of DeBary, Florida, located in Volusia County, is seeking bids for Bid No. 07-25, a capital improvement project focused on replacing a collapsed stormwater pipe at 430 Summerhaven Drive. The procurement is a comprehensive construction contract involving drainage infrastructure rehabilitation, including removing and replacing existing concrete, curbs, and drainage systems. Specific project deliverables include installing 232 linear feet of 24" HDPE round pipe culvert, removing and replacing pavement, implementing silt fencing, installing raised concrete curb, and restoring performance turf sod. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for June 16, 2025, at 3:00 PM at City Hall, with bid submissions due on June 30, 2025, at 3:00 PM. The project's targeted completion date is October 10, 2025. Evaluation criteria will include price, contractor capacity, experience, financial stability, and compliance with local, state, and federal regulations. Contractors must provide a 5% bid security and demonstrate comprehensive insurance coverage, including $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate general liability insurance.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but bidders must comply with various statutory requirements, including E-Verify compliance and restrictions on doing business with entities from certain foreign countries. Contractors will be required to maintain a drug-free workplace, provide documentation of statutory compliance, and adhere to public records laws. The project involves standard infrastructure replacement without mentions of specific incumbent vendors. Liquidated damages are established at $500 per calendar day for work remaining uncompleted after the contractual completion date. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the comprehensive nature of the project—involving drainage infrastructure, pavement restoration, and utility coordination—suggests a significant municipal investment. The City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and will evaluate bids based on a holistic assessment of technical capability, financial stability, and proposed pricing.
