Paragraph 2:

This solicitation does not appear to include any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The documents do not mention any incumbent vendors or current contractors. The project budget is not explicitly stated, but the county was awarded $93,203 in Recreational Trails Program grant funds and will provide the remaining required funds. Bartow County reserves the right to reject any and all bids, and recently issued a notice of intent to reject all bids received and instead complete the work in-house to maintain a fiscally responsible project budget.
