The County’s Law Enforcement Center (LEC) needs more changing/showering and personal belonging storage space for staff.
This project will provide an expansion of locker room spaces on the second floor of the County’s jail. Additionally, it will look
to provide additional related renovations by way of bid alternates, which includes the creation of a Wellness Room for staff.
Bids must be submitted only on the bid form supplied in this RFB document. No oral, telegraphic or telephonic bids or
modifications will be considered. Submit with each bid a certified check or acceptable bidder’s bond payable to Dakota County
in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the total base bid. The successful bidder is required to furnish satisfactory Labor
and Material Payment Bond and Performance Bond equal to 100% of the total contract amount.
Bids may not be withdrawn within sixty (60) days after the opening bids. It is anticipated that the Dakota County Board of
Commissioners will consider award of the project on April 9, 2024 at its regular meeting, and reserves the right to accept any
bid or to reject any or all bids, or parts of such bids, and waive informalities or irregularities in bidding. The estimated
construction cost is approximately $355,000.
