Emergency Residential Demolition: 3146 Coplin

The City of Detroit is soliciting bids for emergency residential demolition at 3146 Coplin, Michigan, with responses due August 12, 2026 — a two-day turnaround. Bidders must submit unit rates on a standardized Professional Rate Schedule with no rate ranges, qualifying notes, or blank fields; the City reserves the right to request rate clarification within twenty-four hours of submission.

The scope encompasses complete demolition and removal of the residential structure, site preparation, utility disconnection and capping, debris removal and disposal, final grading, and site restoration to acceptable condition. All work must comply with local and state regulations, including asbestos survey and abatement if necessary, environmental remediation, and proper waste handling. The contractor must maintain appropriate licensing, insurance, and bonding.

Bidders must complete two service categories in the Professional Rate Schedule: Demolition (administration, supervisor, laborer, equipment, regulated and non-regulated material trucking, and disposal of asbestos-containing materials and construction/demolition materials) and Backfill, Grade, & Site Finalization (administration, supervisor, laborer, equipment, backfill material, and topfill material). All highlighted cells require a single mean unit rate; submissions with ranges, alternate unit types, or blank fields are non-responsive. The City will not accept the rate schedule submission as binding acceptance of proposed rates.

The City references an Emergency Professional Rate Schedule with standardized labor rates by job classification, enabling transparent cost evaluation and comparison. Contract execution documents are available in the supporting files. The emergency designation reflects expedited timeline requirements and prioritized funding allocation for this demolition project.
