RFP 25004551R Landfill Tower and PD Monopole Decommissioning

The City of Midland, Texas is seeking qualified professional firms to dismantle and remove two communication towers located in Mason County: a 500 ft. guyed-tower at the City Landfill and a 190 ft. monopole structure. This Request for Proposal (RFP 25004551R) requires vendors to provide comprehensive tower deconstruction services, including complete removal of tower structures, associated equipment shelters, generators, fencing, and concrete foundations. The project mandates that all recyclable materials be transported to designated recycling centers, with non-recyclable materials left at specified on-site locations. Potential vendors must demonstrate prior experience in tower deconstruction and civil engineering capabilities related to communications infrastructure. The RFP was published on 07/16/2025, with proposals due by 09/17/2025 at 2:00 p.m. CT, and the City anticipates notifying award recipients by 09/05/2025. Evaluation will be based on qualifications, project approach, and overall value, with the City reserving the right to award the entire project or parts of it to one or multiple vendors.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly detailed in the documentation. The contract will be a not-to-exceed based agreement, with all proceeds from recycled materials directed to the City of Midland. While no incumbent vendors were mentioned, the project requires the selected vendor to coordinate with the Landfill Manager, manage utility disconnections, and ensure compliance with all relevant regulations and safety standards. Vendors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including Commercial General Liability with $1,000,000 per occurrence limits, Business Automobile Liability, and Workers' Compensation at statutory limits. The contract will require a 5% bid bond for contracts over $50,000, and successful bidders must provide payment and performance bonds. Though a specific budget range was not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the project suggests a significant municipal infrastructure investment.
