The Tawas Area School District in Iosco County, Michigan, is seeking bids from contractors to furnish and construct a 40'x60' storage post and beam building with a 16'x40' concrete approach apron, one vehicle door, and one personnel door. The district has included alternate bid items for increasing the building size to 40'x80', using stick-built construction, and adding a mezzanine. Bids will be accepted until 1:00 PM on April 1, 2024, and will be publicly opened and read. The school district reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids. Construction must be completed within a 90-day window that may start on or after May 1, 2024, and be finished by September 30, 2024. Bid documents are available for a non-refundable fee of $30 per set, with an additional $10 if the documents are mailed. Bid bonds and payment & performance bonds will be required. The school district will award a firm, fixed-price contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, and there will be no liquidated damages.
