Addendum #3 Issued 11/28/17

City of Homer’s Port and Harbor is requesting proposals from qualified firms for the design and replacement of the Fish Dock waterline and heat trace system.  The City of Homer provides potable water at seven locations on the Fish Dock during the summer and at three locations during the winter.  The current waterline is a 30 year old galvanized pipe which is heavily pitted and needs to be replaced.  The heat trace system is also old and failing.  We are therefore soliciting bids from contractors to replace this old system with modern materials.

There is a mandatory Pre-Bid meeting and walk-through to be held on Monday, November 13, 2017 at 10:00 a.m., located at the Ice Plant, 795 Fish Dock Rd.   This question and answer period is for general understanding and scope of the offered project to interested proposers. Any questions or requests that interested proposers have that involve possible changes to the project or requirements will have to be submitted in writing to which we will respond in kind.  Any actual changes to the RFP once advertised will be done as an addendum to the RFP which all bidders on the plan holders list must respond that they received.

Please direct technical questions regarding this proposal in writing to Bryan Hawkins, City of Homer, Port Director/Harbormaster at bhawkins@ci.homer.ak.us or to 4311 Freight Dock Rd Road, Homer, AK 99603.  Direct proposal submission questions to Melissa Jacobsen, City Clerk, at (907) 235-3130.

Sealed Proposals for Design and Build Completion of Fish Dock Waterline and Heat Trace System Replacement shall be received at the Office of the City Clerk no later than 4:30 p.m., Thursday, November 30, 2017. The time of receipt will be determined by the City Clerk’s time stamp.

Proposals received after the time fixed for the receipt of the bid/rfps shall not be considered. All proposers must submit a City of Homer Proposal Holders Registration form to be on the Proposal Holders List. The Proposal registration form and RFP package are available online at http://www.cityofhomer-ak.gov/rfps  or at the City Clerk’s office.

Electronic copies of this Request for Proposal and requirements are available. There is a fee of $10 for a hard copy, postage not included.

The City reserves the right to accept or reject any or all proposals, to waive irregularities or informalities in the proposals and to award a contract to the respondent that best meets the selection criteria and the City’s needs.
