Addendum No. 1: Questions & Official Responses

Addendum No. 1 provides the City’s official responses to questions from prospective proposers and forms part of the solicitation. The proposal deadline is unchanged: November 5, 2026, 2:00 PM (EST), delivered in person or by courier to 4614 S. Coastal Hwy, Riceboro, GA. Except as expressly revised in the addendum, all other RFP requirements remain unchanged.

Highlights:

  • Digital submissions will not be accepted; submittal requirements and deadline remain as stated on pages 13–14 of the RFP.
  • No grant funding is included and no budget has been set for this project.
  • A lump sum cost proposal for all tasks is acceptable; planning-level cost ranges are acceptable for infrastructure.
  • The 30-page technical limit may be 30 double-sided pages; an 11×17 fold-out counts as one page.
  • An authorized representative other than the signer may hand deliver the proposal.
  • GIS parcel, zoning and utility data will be provided after notice to proceed. The Liberty County Joint Comprehensive Plan is available as a supporting document.
