Miller Park Pool Renovations

The City of Lynchburg, Virginia is requesting sealed bids for Miller Park Pool Renovations under IFB 2026-090, with bids due July 22, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. and an optional pre-bid meeting on July 1 at 11:00 a.m. at the project site (2100 Park Avenue, Lynchburg).

The scope encompasses construction and installation of a new public pool with concrete structure and play equipment, landscaping and sitework, demolition of remaining concrete slab-on-grade, a new lifeguard building, and pumphouse work. The existing pool has already been demolished and removed. Bidders must submit a lump-sum bid divided into three line items: Lifeguard Station, Interior Pool Clubhouse Renovations, and All Other Work to Complete the Project.

Contractors must demonstrate at least five years of experience in similar municipal construction work and adequate resources and qualified personnel. Bid security of 5% of the base bid amount (certified check or bid bond) must accompany each submission. The successful bidder will execute performance and payment bonds equal to 100% of the base bid within ten days of award notification.

The contract requires commencement within ten days of the Notice to Proceed and substantial completion within 275 calendar days. Liquidated damages are assessed at $1,000 per day for delays beyond the deadline; early substantial completion earns an incentive of $500 per day, capped at $20,000 total. Monthly partial payments will be made with 5% retained until project completion and acceptance. The work is subject to Virginia law and the City of Lynchburg Manual of Specifications and Standard Details, latest edition.

Written requests for clarification must be submitted to Stephanie Suter at stephanie.suter@lynchburgva.gov by July 15, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Sealed bids will be publicly opened and read at City Hall, 1st Floor, Customer Conference Room.
