a) As time is of the essence, the Contractor awarded this bid shall be prepared to start demolition on this structure within thirty (45) calendar days of the issuance of the Purchase Order. It is further required as part of the condition of the contract that demolition be completed and that the site be cleaned up and stabilized within five (5) calendar days of initiating demolition. Overall, the Contractor shall complete the work within a total of sixty (60) calendar days from issuance of the Purchase Order. The contractor will be required to install and maintain temporary sedimentation and erosion control measures to prevent sediment from leaving the site and entering the storm drainage system. This would primarily consist of block and gravel curb inlet protection. Bad weather days will be considered, but must be coordinated with the Assistant City Engineer - Water Resources. b) The demolition process will include the removal of ALL debris from the demolition area, i.e., all rocks, masonry, and wood/metal scraps. The demolition area will be raked clear/smooth of ALL debris before seeding. The Contractor shall backfill and compact all excavated areas with sand-clay and dress off and fill in all low spots with topsoil in order to provide positive drainage within the limits of the work area and shall grade, reseed, and straw the demolition area and any other areas disturbed during completion of the work. Reseeding is to be done with Kentucky Fescue grass seed. (The result of this effort will create an area that can easily be maintained with standard residential yard maintenance equipment.) The demolition process must include dust control. This process must be accomplished with the use of at least a 1” hose with a nozzle producing a fog spray pattern sufficient to maintain adequate dust control to the satisfaction of the Assistant City Engineer - Water Resources. NOTE: The Demolition Contractor must remove any trees damaged during the demolition process. c) The Contractor awarded the bid shall be responsible for all equipment, labor, and materials needed to demolish the property and the hauling of materials to a disposal site. If present, the contractor will not be allowed to stage equipment or cross a box culvert located on or immediately adjacent to the property. Disposal of materials is to be done in accordance with all Federal, State, and Local laws and must be at a Stateapproved landfill. Copies of the waste manifest bills from the landfill must be supplied at the time you submit your bill for payment of the demolition. Payment will not be made until such time as these manifests are provided to the city by the Contractor.
