Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners, through its Facilities Development and Operations Department's Capital Improvements Division, is soliciting bids for construction of a new community park at Paulette Burdick Park under Project No. 18230, with bids due November 5, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. under Addendum 1. Bidders must be pre-qualified under the county's Annual Contract for Minor Construction Services, with qualification applications due at least 10 days before the bid due date, and the solicitation carries a minimum mandatory Small Business Enterprise subcontracting goal of 25 percent participation.

Bidders unable to meet the 25 percent SBE goal must submit a waiver request with satisfactory Good Faith Efforts documentation. Bidders must also complete OSBD Schedules 1 and 2, a Human Trafficking Affidavit (Attachment D), and a Certification for Prohibition Against Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Material. Addendum 1 must be acknowledged by signing and attaching it to the bid proposal form, and failure to do so potentially results in disqualification.

Listed amenities include a playground, adult fitness zone, basketball courts, walking paths, and other amenities. The Architect/Engineer of Record is Urban Design Studios, LLC. Substantial completion is required within 365 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages of $180 per day.
