All bidders must be licensed and qualified by the Nevada State Contractor's Board prior to bid opening, and Nevada prevailing wage rates and Nevada Apprenticeship Utilization Act compliance apply—apprentices must comprise at least 3 percent of total labor hours for apprenticed crafts.

The scope encompasses pavement rehabilitation and drainage improvements on Sam Clemens Avenue and Sutro Springs Road, including ditch excavation and culvert installation or replacement; slurry seal or chip seal surface treatments on Prospector Road, Martin Lane, Tom Sawyer Way, Huckleberry Way, Jumping Frog Lane, Willie Way, Mary Lane Road, Edith Lane, Julie Way, and Elizabeth Lane. The work includes rip-rap apron and bedding construction and pavement markings across 32 line items with estimated quantities from single units to over 35,000 square yards.

The Engineer's Opinion of Probable Construction Costs is estimated between $5 million and $6 million. Bids shall be submitted on a unit price basis with separate pricing for alternates. A site visit and examination is required of all bidders. Contract performance requires substantial completion within 80 working days and final completion within 90 working days from notice to proceed. Liquidated damages are $750 per day for failure to meet either deadline. A 5 percent bid security (certified check, bank money order, or bid bond) is required. Bidders must submit qualifications statements, evidence of Nevada contractor licensing, and a 5 percent subcontractor list with the bid; the three lowest bidders must submit a 1 percent subcontractor list within two hours of bid opening. Retainage is 5 percent of work completed until 50 percent completion, after which no additional retainage applies if work remains satisfactory. Progress payments are made monthly at 95 percent of work completed, with final payment of 97.5 percent upon substantial completion.
