2. PROJECT OVERVIEW:

Larimer County intends to contract with one (1) or more qualified Contractor(s) to provide miscellaneous non-

paved road maintenance and construction services for various General and Public Improvement Districts

(GID’s/PID’s) in Larimer County, Colorado. The Contractor may be called upon to perform Emergency Work in

response to a disaster. Additional improvement districts or project sites may be identified and added in

the future, assuming both parties agree.

Proposers must be experienced roadway contractors and in the use of the Colorado Department of

Transportation’s Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction.

The services as described under “SCOPE OF WORK” may begin any time after contract execution, anticipated

in February of 2026.

Services will be conducted on a “case-by-case”, as-needed basis, and will be determined by each individual

GID/PID Advisory Road Board in conjunction with both the Larimer County Engineering Department and the

Contractor. The amount of work and number of projects will vary for each GID/PID throughout the year. There

are no specific schedules in place for any given PID/GID, however, many districts will have road maintenance

needs coming out of the winter months and may need additional maintenance throughout the warmer months.

The following table offers proposers an approximation of what the GIDs/PIDs (combined) could likely spend for

road maintenance annually, based off both the current budgets and 2025 actual spend ($718,997.50). The

roads within each district will require varying levels of annual and/or routine maintenance due to traffic

volumes, location within the district, weather effects, etc. Interested vendors are encouraged to view the

service areas at their convenience. The areas to be serviced within the scope of this Request for Proposal.
