This would include asbestos abatement of 4 properties, including 1804 E. 4th Street, 207 Lafayette Street, 208 Sunnyside Avenue, and 637 Ankeny Street. Please find attached the RFB document (which contains the Exhibit "A" Signature Page for proposal submittal), as well as an Exhibit "B" the Asbestos Survey Reports for the properties, and Exhibit "C" the Draft Contract. This bid will be a little different than previous ones. I am no longer requiring the survey contractor to do abatement monitoring, and we are not precluding the survey contractor from also bidding on the abatement contract. We are giving this a try, and will evaluate how we do it for future contracts. Bids are due to the City Clerk's Office by Thursday, January 19th 2023 by 1:00 p.m. (no electronic submittals). Special note: As in the past, there is not a mandatory walk-thru required, but bidders are advised/encouraged to make their own inspections prior to bid submittal. The Planning Department is in possession of a key to a padlock to the front door of 208 Sunnyside Avenue, and has no other keys to any property. Most homes are boarded up and will require a cordless drill with various bits to remove boards to provide access. Please re -install any boards you remove to attempt to maintain security. Please Note: several of these homes are in very poor condition, and will require careful methods (such as an extension ladder) to reach basements or upper levels. 207 Lafayette Street and 208 Sunnyside Avenue in particular have significant roof failure and collapsed stairwells for reaching basements or second floors. 637 Ankeny Street is known to have a crawlspace with HVAC equipment within the crawlspace, with no previously identifiable access point into the crawlspace. The surveyor cut a small hole in the floor to access the crawlspace. A hearing and anticipated award of contract is anticipated to be on February 6th, with a proposed contract period of February 6th thru April 28th Let me know if anyone has any additional questions.
