Skate Park Obstacle, Demolition/Replacement

The City of St. Petersburg, Florida is soliciting quotes under RFQ Quote-27-003 for demolition of the center curved ledge obstacle and installation of one new tabletop obstacle at the St. Petersburg Regional Skate Park at Campbell Park, 600 12th Street South, with responses due November 12, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. The City will award one contract to the most qualified submittal under its stated evaluation criteria.

Bidders must submit a Subcontractor Summary Worksheet with their bid, listing every intended subcontractor by legal name, address, trade, and subcontract amount. Only first- and second-tier subcontractors are permitted unless the contract documents specify otherwise, and the City's worksheet permits up to 80% of contract work to be subcontracted. Any SBE or MWBE subcontractor used to meet a percentage requirement must be replaced with a similarly certified firm. Substitutions after award and the pre-construction meeting are limited to listed circumstances, including failure to execute a contract, inadequate licensing, insolvency, poor performance, and substantial delay.

Scope includes demolition and debris removal, site coordination, installation of the tabletop obstacle with secure and stable construction, site restoration, and all labor, materials, tools, and equipment. Preferred qualifications include at least one year of experience in skate park or comparable recreational concrete facility construction or repair and the ability to obtain required insurance and public construction bonds. Vendors must register with the Florida Division of Corporations, submit a W-9, furnish at least three professional references, and comply with Florida Statute 448.095 on E-Verify.

Pricing is submitted on a job basis across three line items: demolition and removal, furnishing and installation, and site restoration and cleanup. The City's draft construction agreement requires a public construction bond equal to the full contract amount, a 5% retainage until Substantial Completion, and liquidated damages of $75 per calendar day for late Substantial Completion. It also requires Commercial General Liability coverage of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate. The City has designated indemnification, insurance, governing law and venue, dispute resolution, remedy waivers, attorney's fees, and liability limitations as non-negotiable.

A non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting takes place November 3, 2026 at Campbell Park. Written questions are due November 6, 2026. All submittals must be filed electronically through the OpenGov portal at procurement.opengov.com/portal/stpete.
