Question Date Asked Answer Date Answered
Hello City of Sanford - please find some initial questions we have following our visit at the pre-Bid meeting and our review of the RFP documents. Thank you for the opportunity to support the City of Sanford in this effort.

QUESTIONS:

1.) Please confirm that pages 32-35 of 66 of the RFQ are not representative of the scope of work and that the scope of work is the replacement of the yellow seawall on sheet 49 of 66 of the RFQ.

2.) Is a survey available in AutoCAD for the project and can it be provided for this RFQ?

3.) Is there a Geotech report available for the project and can it be provided for this RFQ?

4.) Can the City provide the remaining portions of the Preliminary Engineering Report?

5.) Are there existing as-builts and/or design drawings (preferably as-builts) available for the following, and can they be made available for this RFQ?

Water & sewer
Electrical/Communications
Paving, Grading & Drainage

6.) The stormwater pipes exiting the existing seawall appear to have been CIPP lined. Can the City confirm this?

7.) Will the design need to consider or provide any project phasing or is it to be built as one phase project?

8.) What company is designing and permitting the FEMA funded project?

9.) Are there any anticipated permits beyond the following?:

USACE
FDEP
City of Sanford Building Department (structural)
Public Works (conformance w/ grants)

10.) Would the City be amenable to a different design than the king pile design, and possibly a multi-option design, that being multiple designs to be bid simultaneously with the benefit to the City being the evaluation of actual bid numbers to make an informed decision on the most economically viable solution?

11.) Is the $7,163,762 budget reflective of only the scope of work advertised in this bid or does it also include the FEMA (red) portion or any other portion of work?

12.) The RFQ states that the City of Sanford owns the land and the lake bottom in and around Marine Isle. The Seminole County Property Appraiser website does not seem to corroborate this. The FDEP State Lands GIS database appears to indicate that the City of Sanford has a Submerged Lands Lease over an area surrounding Marine Isle and the marina. The engineering report states that Sheet V-1.00 shows the lease line locations but no such lease boundary is present on Sheet V-1.00. Please confirm the City has a submerged lands lease and provide the limits of this lease.

13.) Is grant administration and administration of the one-year warranty period part of the scope of this RFQ?

14.) Please confirm that there are no requirements from FEMA for this work.

15.) Please confirm the grant expiration date.

16.) Can we extend the timeline for project descriptions (Section 5.03A) from 3 years to 5 years?

Thank you for providing this information and helping us to produce a fully compliant proposal.
