The City of Plattsburgh invites proposals from qualified individuals, professional service firms and/or consultant teams to undertake design and construction inspection services in support of the implementation of the City of Plattsburgh Bike Friendly Plan.
This project will utilize New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Climate Smart Communities (CSC) funding and City of Plattsburgh funding to enhance pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure near Oak Street Elementary School.
The project’s objective is to create safer routes for students to commute to school and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions via reduced reliance on automobile transportation within the City of Plattsburgh.
The project includes designing and constructing 5’ wide sidewalks, painted crosswalks, signage, new signal equipment, adding shared roadway markings and implementing the intersection design prepared by Erdman Anthony.
This project has been funded in part by The Climate Smart Community Grant Program, Title 15 of the Environmental Protection Fund through the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation. The project has a fixed budget of $90,000 for design engineering and $30,000 for construction inspection services. The City of Plattsburgh will administer the consultant contract and will jointly manage the design with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
This project is subject to Article 15-A of the Executive Law which includes, but is not limited to, those provisions concerning the maximizing of opportunities for the participation of minority and women-owned business enterprises. As such, an overall 30% M/WBE participation rate and a 6% SDVOB rate have been established for this project. Minority-Owned Business Enterprises (“MBE”), Women-Owned Business Enterprises (“WBE”), and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Businesses (“SDVOB”) and/or combinations of offerors are strongly encouraged to submit proposals.
