Description
REQUIREMENTS:
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has a Federal Business Opportunity (FedBizOpps) for a parcel of land. FEMA is seeking expressions of interest from owners of vacant parcels of land.
The intended use of the leased land is to provide storage for travel trailers and/or mobile homes which were used by the Louisiana Housing Task Force as temporary emergency housing units (EHU) to those individuals displaced from their permanent residences by Hurricane Katrina. These EHU will not be occupied.
General Services Administration (GSA) will enter into a lease contract on behalf of FEMA with the owner whose parcel of land is technically acceptable for the intended use of the Government. FEMA intends to lease only the land that is determined to meet all the governmental technical requirements. The determination of technical acceptability is made by the GSA Contracting Officer. In making a determination, the GSA Contracting Officer will use technical criteria provided by FEMA program officials, other federal agencies? guidelines and technical contractors who are responsible for the operation and maintenance of the site.
The determination process is two-phased. The first phase will use the criteria listed in this ad to determine if expressions of interest meet the minimum criteria for the intended use by the Government. Those individuals responding with an expression of interest that meet these minimum criteria will be provided with a Solicitation for Offer (SFO). The second phase of determination is based upon the additional technical requirements specified within the SFO. Only the offers that meet all the technical requirements of both this ad and the SFO will be considered for award.
Land owners who meet the following minimum criteria are requested to provide expressions of interest to GSA.
1. Land in one of the following parishes in Louisiana: East Feliciana, West Feliciana, St. Helena, Tangipahoa, Livingston, East Baton Rouge, West Baton Rouge, Pointe Coupee, Ascension. Additionally, St. Landry, Evangeline, Allen and Beauregard parishes may be considered if the land is located either with direct frontage to Hwy 190 or is located north of 190.
2. Parcels of Land no smaller than 175 and no larger than 540 acres.
3. Land that is flat and hard-surfaced (no loose soil and no crop lands), cleared of trees, debris and other impediments to support travel trailers and mobile homes.
4. Land owner will allow placement of gravel/rock on roadways and lanes on the property with possible culvert/piping to make property more accessible and conducive to staging travel trailers and mobile homes.
5. Land that has direct access from primary/secondary paved roads. Preference is for land with a minimum of 200 feet frontage on these roads with easy access from a major four-lane divided highway and/or interstate highway. Travel trailers and full size mobile homes (14? x 70?x 13.5?) need to be towed to the site from throughout the state of Louisiana
6. Land that is has water and electric service to the property is required.
7. Land that is not wetlands.
8. Land that meets local government ordinances, zoning requirements, and any other necessary approvals for government intended use (parish approval required).
9. Land that complies with all necessary environmental, archeological and historical regulations.
10. Occupancy is required by March 1, 2008.
The expression of interest should include, as a minimum, the following information:
1. Owner name, address, phone number, fax number, and email address if available.
2. Written proof of ownership and/or of the legal control necessary to lease the land (e.g. copy of deed, mortgage document, or master lease stating the ability to sublease for the government?s intended use).
3. A legal description of the property.
4. Description of the land: size (number of acres), physical characteristics, past and current use.
5. Location of the land: including the municipal (physical) address, city, parish, and a small map showing the location and access to the property.
6. Picture of the site.
7. If representing an owner, a written agreement with the owner showing authority to represent the owner.
8. Written parish approval for the Government?s intended use.
All expressions of interest shall be addressed as follows and mailed to:
General Services Administration
Expression of Interest to Vacant Land
3535 S. Sherwood Forest Blvd., Suite 150
Baton Rouge, LA 70816
SOLICITATION PROCESS:
Typically, GSA will solicit offers from all technically acceptable sites. Site acceptability will be established by the process of determination described above and within the Solicitation for Offer. The leasing action will be awarded to the lowest price technically acceptable offer.
LEASE TERM:
2 years, 1- year firm term.
RENTAL RATE:
An annual rate of return on the estimated value of the selected site is offered as a lease rental payment. The Government will not accept an increased value assessment or an excessive interest rate due to the nature of this requirement. The intent of the Government is not to operate a commercial business on the property and, therefore, there is no income for consideration in determining a fair rental rate.
RIGHT-OF-ENTRY FORM:
The owner will be required to provide access and entry onto the property to FEMA and its representatives for the purpose of performance of environmental and other assessment to determine technical feasibility for intended use.
