Montezuma County 2026 Parking Lot Reconstruction

Montezuma County, Colorado is requesting proposals for parking lot reconstruction and repairs across six county facilities in Cortez, with proposals due August 4, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. and opening on August 5. Nonresident proposers from states that provide bidding preferences to their own proposers will have a comparable percentage disadvantage applied to their proposals.

The scope spans soft spot repair, crack sealing, mastic coating, concrete curb and gutter installation, concrete cross gutter work, and paint striping at Montezuma County Administration (109 West Main Street), Annex 1 (107 North Chestnut), Annex 3 (140 West Main Street), Combined Courts (865 North Park Street), Sheriff's Department (730 East Driscoll Street), and Coroner Building (25306 County Road L), all in Cortez. Proposers must examine all contract documents and visit project sites prior to submission.

The selected contractor must execute the construction agreement within fifteen days of receiving the Notice of Award and provide a certificate of insurance within the same period. Progress payments are made based on percentage completion of unit quantities, with the County retaining at least five percent of each payment until final completion. Final payment is due forty-five days after substantial completion. The contract includes liquidated damages provisions for failure to meet the completion deadline.

Contractors must submit a work schedule, estimated payment schedule, personnel manpower list, and cost breakdown prior to processing the first payment request. Questions regarding contract interpretation must be submitted via email to dsattler@co.montezuma.co.us at least five days before the proposal deadline to receive binding written responses. A workshop discussion is planned for Monday, August 10, 2026, and the Board of County Commissioners will make award decisions on Tuesday, August 11, 2026.
