About this opportunity
The City of Winter Haven has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB-25-24) for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) project to harden Fire Station #2, located at 4700 Lucerne Park Road in Polk County, Florida. The procurement seeks a contractor to complete comprehensive infrastructure improvements aimed at increasing the fire station's weather resiliency and service consistency. The project encompasses 16 specific tasks, including installing a standing seam metal roof, hurricane-rated windows and doors, a new 120 kW diesel generator, lightning protection, surge protection systems, and improved insulation. Contractors must demonstrate experience with at least three similar CDBG construction projects completed within the past five years. The bid requires a bid bond of at least 5% of the base bid for projects exceeding $100,000. Key deadlines include a non-mandatory site visit on June 11, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., and sealed bid submissions due on June 24, 2025, at 2:00 P.M. The project has a strict completion timeline of 120 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages of $5,000 per day for delays beyond the specified completion time.
The procurement is funded through a Florida Commerce grant agreement and requires contractors to comply with federal labor standards, Davis-Bacon wage requirements, and various federal procurement regulations. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the project requires comprehensive federal compliance. The total project scope suggests potential award values in the range of several hundred thousand dollars, though an exact budget is not specified in the provided documentation. Contractors will need to integrate new infrastructure including hurricane-rated equipment, electrical systems, and structural improvements into the existing fire station facility. The project's successful completion is contingent upon a final inspection by City staff to verify that all work meets the specified requirements. Bidders must submit comprehensive documentation demonstrating their capability to execute the full range of infrastructure hardening and renovation tasks within the prescribed timeline and quality standards.

Project Description and Information
The City of Winter Haven has secured Infrastructure Hardening funds through a Florida Commerce grant
agreement. This funding will be used to construct improvements to Winter Haven Fire Station #2 in
order to increase weather resiliency to the fire station and provide a safer and more consistent service
to the community. A full task list is described below. These types of projects allow for the improvements
to critical infrastructure that benefit from the improvements, identified by Florida Commerce. This
facility has completed its required Environmental Review for this project.
Project Location
The project location incorporating hardening improvements is 4700 Lucerne Park Road, located on the
north side of Lucerne Park Rd across from Lake Fannie. While there are specific design plans for this
project, they may not preclude additional work to tie-in the project with adjacent or nearby
public/private parcels or rights of way. Any additional work not included in the plans may be contingent
on acceptance of change order agreements.
Due to grant deadlines, the project must achieve completion 120 days from the issuance of the notice to
proceed and will have liquidated damages of $5,000 per day that may go into effect after that date. The
project must then have all punch list items completed within 30 days after substantial completion has
been achieved. The project must demonstrate successful fulfillment of all work during an inspection by
City staff to be considered complete.
