NTCC Parking Lot Paving

Northfield Township in Washtenaw County, Michigan, is seeking proposals for a parking lot paving project at the Northfield Township Community Center located in Whitmore Lake. The procurement is a Request for Proposals (RFP) for paving two separate parking lots: a northern lot with a geogrid stone base and a southern asphalt lot. Bidders are required to submit three distinct cost estimates: one for the North Lot, one for the South Lot, and one for paving both lots simultaneously. Each lot is approximately 5,600 square feet, and the project scope includes removing existing surfaces, salvaging and supplementing base materials, repairing sidewalks and drive approaches, addressing drainage and erosion issues, and repaving with new asphalt, including ADA space delineation. The project site walk-through is scheduled for 4:00 pm on August 26, 2025, with proposal submissions due by 2:00 pm on September 2, 2025. Expected project dates are October 2025 if both lots are completed together, or October 2025 for the North Lot and mid-late summer 2026 for the South Lot if done separately. Bidders must submit company contact information, three project cost estimates, three or more recent references, proof of liability insurance, and certification as a non-Iran-linked business.

The township has not specified specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders will be evaluated based on their submitted documentation, including references, insurance proof, and cost estimates. The township reserves the right to waive informalities, modify the project scope, and reject any or all proposals. The project will be funded through the township's budget, with the final scope and timing dependent on the received bids and board consideration on September 9, 2025. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the proposal requires comprehensive documentation that demonstrates the bidder's capability to complete the parking lot paving project. The evaluation will likely focus on the completeness of the proposal, cost-effectiveness, technical capability, and past performance. Though no specific budget range is provided, the project involves paving approximately 11,200 square feet of parking lot area, which suggests a substantial infrastructure investment for the township.
