Request for Proposal

1. PROJECT INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

The Town of Shelburne is seeking bids to provide design build construction services to

construct a new Maintenance garage with a total project cost between $150,000- $205,000.

The project is located at Davis Park, 344 Harbor Rd., Shelburne, VT. The existing building

consists of an area for the Boy Scouts, and a separate area used as a town maintenance

garage, and a small storage area for Parks and Recreational items. The services would

include removing the existing Building and Grounds Maintenance shop structure, while

leaving the attached Scout barn undisturbed. The Maintenance shop was once part of the Boy

Scout warming hut for an ice rink that is no longer on site. The shop is used year-round, but

most operations take place from March to October. This project is intended to start and be

completed during the off season, from roughly October 15th through April 15th, when not

heavily utilized. Access to the Scout barn and playground will need to remain open during

construction.

The purpose of the project is to construct a new Maintenance Building that closely resembles

what the Cemetery did with their building, allowing it to function efficiently for housing

various groundskeeping equipment and providing an operations center for staff. This includes

an accessible restroom for the public to use while they visit the park. In addition, the existing

facility was built around 1983 and is in dire need of upgrades and replacement.

2. SCOPE OF WORK

Develop construction drawings and cost estimate that will advise the owners on the best

options for the construction of a new building. Removal of the old structure, salvaging any

usable foundation sections, and constructing a two-bay garage that would include extending

the length of the building by six feet, making the total dimensions 30’ x 28’. We also need

the roof line to be extended in height to match the Boy Scout barn to give us a taller ceiling.

Lastly, an ADA bathroom and a small 4’x 4’ closet for utilities needs to be added. The new

building shall have two new garage doors, and a man door.

2.1 Project Timeline

Project site will be available for contractor to begin no earlier than October 1, 2026.

Project should be completed by April 15, 2027. No liquidated damages on bid.

2.2 Demolition

The contractor shall remove and dispose of the existing building, including exterior and

interior walls, roof structure, doors and pavement. Any hazardous material shall be disposed

of in a legally appropriate manner. The site shall be prepared for construction including the

new foundation addition. The existing water, wastewater and electrical services are to be

maintained. The boy scout portion of the building must remain standing, and there will need

to be a 2 hour rated wall between the maintenance garage and the boy scout area.

employees. There shall be provisions for draining all water lines, or blowing out with

compressed air for the winter months if future use is no longer needed. A separate heating

system for the bathroom should be included for four season use. The restroom shall be

accessed from the exterior of the building only.
