The North Clackamas School District is soliciting bids for the SE 162nd Avenue Extension Project (ITB-24-106), a comprehensive roadway and infrastructure construction opportunity located in Clackamas County, Oregon. The project scope encompasses constructing a new roadway at SE 162nd Avenue and a new driveway at Scouters Mountain Elementary School, including extensive site preparation and development activities such as clearing, excavation, grading, paving, installing curbs and sidewalks, underground utilities, street lights, a monument sign, reader board, landscaping, street signage, and striping. Bidders must submit sealed proposals by February 27, 2024, at 2:00 PM Pacific Time, with bids to be opened immediately thereafter. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for the Base Bid, potentially modified by owner-accepted alternates. Key project milestones include Substantial Completion for Parking Lot Work by August 20, 2024, Substantial Completion for remaining work by September 20, 2024, and Final Completion by October 30, 2024. Contractors must comply with Oregon Prevailing Wage Rates and be prepared to pay liquidated damages of $1,000 per calendar day for exceeding contract completion timelines.

The school district encourages participation from Minority, Women, Emerging Small Businesses, and Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Businesses, though no specific participation goals are mandated. A preference will be applied for goods or services manufactured or produced in Oregon if price, fitness, availability, and quality are determined to be equal. Contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including workers' compensation, employer's liability, commercial general liability, and automobile liability, with minimum coverage limits specified in the solicitation documents. The project will require coordination with Portland General Electric (PGE) for streetlight infrastructure, with the contractor responsible for trenching, conduit, and related infrastructure, while PGE will handle pole, light, and connection installations. Although the exact contract value is not explicitly stated in "000" placeholder text, the project involves significant infrastructure development with potential for substantial investment. Contractors must be prepared to submit performance and payment bonds, provide certified payroll statements, and comply with various state and federal regulatory requirements, with the district retaining 25% of earned amounts until all documentation is submitted.
