Mazurik Access Sidewalk Replacement

The Mazurik Access Sidewalk Replacement project is a state-level procurement issued by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Wildlife Division, specifically targeting Hancock County. The project involves replacing existing asphalt sidewalks with ADA-compatible concrete sidewalks at six designated locations, totaling approximately 588 linear feet. Each new sidewalk must be 4 feet wide, constructed using fiber reinforced concrete at 4,000 psi with 6% air entrainment, following ODOT Item #608 specifications. Additionally, the scope includes replacing three culverts with 12-inch black corrugated drainage pipe. The project must be completed by June 30, 2025, with contractors required to coordinate work timing due to the site's high public usage. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on the low lot total, calculated by multiplying unit costs by estimated usage quantities. A site visit is strongly recommended and can be arranged through Mike Wilkerson, with the due date for proposals set for March 21, 2025.

The procurement encourages participation from Ohio-certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Encouraging Diversity, Growth and Equity (EDGE) businesses. Contractors must complete several mandatory forms, including an Affirmation and Disclosure Form that requires detailed information about business operations and service locations. Independent contractors must submit an OPERS Independent Contractor Form within 30 days of beginning services. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the project involves standard state contract terms with payment scheduled through Ohio Shared Services, requiring invoices to be submitted within 30 calendar days of service acceptance. Contractors must maintain commercial general liability and auto liability insurance with minimum coverage of $1 million per occurrence. The contract is contingent upon appropriation of funds by the Ohio General Assembly and will be executed through the OhioBuys system, with potential for renewal upon mutual written consent and subject to ongoing appropriations.
