Lakeside Estates Sidewalks Phase 2

The City of Hutto in Williamson County, Texas, is soliciting bids for the Lakeside Estates Sidewalks Phase 2 project, a comprehensive infrastructure improvement initiative focused on sidewalk construction and driveway reconstruction. The project encompasses multiple street segments including Marjorie Dr, Kaatz Ln, Dana Dr, Cassandra Dr, and Lakemont Dr, with a total sidewalk construction length of 3,962 linear feet. Bidders must demonstrate experience by having completed a minimum of three similar projects within the last five years and submit a bid bond or cashier's check for 5% of the total bid amount. Sealed bids will be received until 2:00 PM CST on June 23, 2023, at Hutto City Hall, with an anticipated construction timeline of 55 working days. The project requires unit price bid items, detailed documentation including qualifications statements, manufacturer lists, and proposed subcontractor information, and will follow technical specifications from the City of Georgetown Construction Specifications, Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Standards, and City of Austin supplemental specifications.

The procurement offers two bid options: a base bid using City of Hutto Standard ST04 with 4-inch concrete sidewalks and 6-inch flex base, and an alternate bid using Standard ST04-A with 5-inch concrete sidewalks and 8-inch cement stabilized subgrade. The total estimated construction cost is $718,387.75, which includes a base subtotal of $624,685.00, with additional line items for 5% mobilization ($31,234.25) and 10% contingency ($62,468.50). Successful contractors will be required to provide performance, payment, and maintenance bonds, each for 100% of the contract price, and maintain comprehensive insurance coverage including workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and automobile liability. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, contractors must comply with Texas Labor Wage rates. The project involves detailed infrastructure work including concrete sidewalk and pedestrian ramp construction, block sod installation, tree and landscape removals, and driveway reconstruction, with careful coordination required with property owners regarding landscape and irrigation system adjustments.
