Contractors must comply with CDBG and HUD requirements including Davis-Bacon and Related Acts, Section 3, Equal Opportunity Employment, and Lead-Based Paint regulations. Prevailing wage compliance under Texas Government Code Chapter 2258 is required. Evaluation will be based on best value considerations including purchase price, bidder reputation and past performance, quality of goods and services, and alignment with City needs. Questions are due October 2, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. CST, with City responses expected by October 7. All responses must be submitted electronically through Bonfire; no paper submittals are accepted. The contract term begins upon award and continues through inspection and acceptance of completed projects.
