The successful bidder must be a Class "A" General Engineering Contractor licensed under California law and must complete all work within fifty (50) working days from receipt of the Notice to Proceed, with construction scheduled to commence approximately September 14, 2026. A mandatory pre-bid conference will be held on May 4, 2026, at 10:00 AM at the project site, with attendance required for bidder eligibility; bidding documents are available without charge at the City's e-procurement portal at https://www.cityofsantacruz.com/business/bidding-information. Bid security of not less than ten percent (10%) of the bid amount is required, and the City will award the contract to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder based on compliance with prevailing wage requirements, insurance obligations, and responsiveness to project specifications.

The procurement is subject to prevailing wage requirements as determined by the California Department of Industrial Relations, with all contractors and subcontractors required to register with the DIR, and no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are noted in the available documents. The project is subject to local hiring requirements under Santa Cruz Municipal Code Chapter 3.10, mandating good faith efforts to hire county residents and apprentices from approved apprenticeship programs, and all work must comply with California Air Resources Board (CARB) regulations regarding in-use off-road diesel-fueled fleets, with valid Certificates of Reported Compliance required before equipment can operate on site. Successful bidders must submit executed performance and payment bonds, each equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the contract price, along with proof of insurance within ten (10) calendar days of award notification. The City will retain five percent (5%) of progress payments until thirty-five (35) calendar days after recording the Notice of Completion, and liquidated damages of three thousand six hundred dollars ($3,600) per calendar day will be assessed for delays beyond the fifty (50) working day completion deadline. No incumbent vendor or current contractor information is provided in the procurement documents; however, the project requires integration with existing infrastructure including the DeLaveaga Golf Course facility, existing stairs, ramps, and utilities that must be coordinated through Underground Service Alert (1-800-642-2444).
