Explanation
* The City, through a land development permitting process, requires developers and builders to construct infrastructure improvements, such as roads and sidewalks, as part of the planned development.
* The City created a subdivision bond administration program to allow developers and builders to record subdivision plats and begin real estate transactions in the absence of completed infrastructure improvements such as roads and sidewalk. This program ensures the completion of required public improvements should the developer or builder default.
* Work performed under this contract will consist of public infrastructure improvements for subdivisions where developers have defaulted. All subdivisions are located within the City of Charlotte or its extraterritorial jurisdiction.
* For each subdivision where work is to be done, the City has declared the developer/builder to be in default, made demands for, and received the surety bond funds. Funding for the construction of the infrastructure improvements will be solely from private developer bond funds.
* Work includes, but is not limited to, paving, sidewalks, curb and gutter, accessible ramps, and storm drainage, and for public streets to be maintained by the City.
* On October 3, 2017, the City issued an Invitation to Bid; three bids were received from interested service providers.
* Red Clay Industries Inc. was selected as the lowest responsive, responsible bidder.
