About this opportunity
The Town of Tazewell is soliciting proposals from qualified engineering firms for the North Tazewell Business District Revitalization Project, a comprehensive downtown development initiative. The procurement seeks engineering services for final design, including facade improvements, slum and blight abatement, and street improvements within the downtown area. Required services encompass basic engineering, inspection services, and any additional engineering deemed necessary by the project scope. Proposals will be evaluated based on five key criteria: experience with similar projects, familiarity with Tazewell's infrastructure, knowledge of funding sources like CDBG, VCEDA, and ARC, qualifications and availability of project personnel, and current and projected workload of the responding firms. The request for proposals (RFP) requires submission to Leeanne Regon, Town Manager, by 4:00 p.m. on July 17, 2024, with proposals to be either mailed or hand-delivered to the Town of Tazewell's address at 211 Central Ave, Tazewell, VA 24651.
The Town of Tazewell is an Equal Opportunity Employer and explicitly encourages participation from minority and female-owned firms. While no specific set-aside percentages or dollar amounts are specified, the procurement indicates a preference for diverse vendor participation. The project is anticipated to be funded through a combination of federal and state grant sources, including Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Virginia Coalfield Economic Development Authority (VCEDA), and Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) funding, though precise budget allocations are not detailed in the available documentation. The Town reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to negotiate with the most responsive bidder in the best interest of the municipality. No incumbent vendors are mentioned, and no specific technology integration requirements are outlined in the procurement documents. The project appears focused on economic restructuring, downtown revitalization, and creating alternative uses for planned demolition areas within the North Tazewell Business District.
