PURPOSE
Kittitas County Department of Public Works is seeking demolition services removing one barn and one garage, salvaging associated materials, disposing of unsalvageable materials, and removing all materials within the identified vicinity of these structures.
SCOPE OF PROJECT
Two buildings will be demolished, salvage rights for the demolished buildings will belong to the selected service provider (PROVIDER), and unsalvageable materials will be properly disposed by the service provider. The two buildings to be demolished include 1) a 2,484 square-foot barn-built ca. 1900, and 2) a 280 square-foot garage with stained wooden shiplap, with some areas of vertical wood board and some areas of plywood. Building photos are provided in Appendix A.
These structures are located on parcel 508933, at 731 Stone Rd., Ellensburg Washington. The site is south of the city of Ellensburg. This project is scheduled to commence in Fall or Winter 2021. All tasks must be completed by February 28, 2022.
The work to be performed under this contract consists of the following general tasks.
1) Permits and Fees
PROVIDER is responsible for all permits, fees, inspections, and approvals necessary to demolish the buildings as outlined by the standards established by federal, state, and local authorities. Kittitas County has already conducted the necessary cultural resources consultation necessary to demolish the buildings.
2) Building Demolition
PROVIDER shall demolish and remove all above and below ground debris and appurtenances including but not limited to the main structure, all footings, foundations, floors, and debris of any kind. This task includes mobilizing labor and all necessary equipment to the site, dismantling the building so that salvageable materials can be re-used, and unsalvageable materials can be disposed.
3) Material Salvage
Salvage rights belong to the PROVIDER after Notice to Proceed is issued. All portions of the demolitions must be removed, to include scrap metals, concrete, and other materials. The salvaged site shall be graded flat and level sufficient for grass seeding. Contractor may sell any and all materials and retain any proceeds from the sale of such materials. It is the expectation of Kittitas County that any proceeds earned by PROVIDER through recycling or salvaging will offset the costs of demolition services. Any plans to sell materials directly from the site will need to be first coordinated with, and approved in writing, by Kittitas County Department of Public Works.
4) Final Cleanup
No debris shall be left or buried on the site. All removal from this site of debris, rubbish, and other materials resulting from demolition operations must be disposed of in a legal manner.

Kittitas County shall evaluate statements of qualifications and performance data submitted by firms regarding the proposed project. Following the evaluation, the county may invite one or more firms to meet with county officials to discuss the project and the relative benefits of various methods of providing the desired services. The county then selects from among those firms the one "most highly qualified" to provide the required services. County procedures and guidelines are to include a plan to ensure that women, minority, and veteran-owned firms have the maximum opportunity to compete for the contract. The level of firm participation should be consistent with their availability within the relevant professional community.
After choosing the most qualified firm, the county then negotiates with that firm for a contract at a price the county determines is fair and reasonable, considering the estimated value of the services to be rendered, as well as the scope and complexity of the project. If a satisfactory contract cannot be negotiated, the county formally terminates the negotiations with that firm and attempts to negotiate a contract with the next most qualified firm. The process continues until an agreement is reached or the search is terminated.
In emergency situations, the process outlined above for procuring services maybe dispensed with upon a finding by the county that an emergency requires the immediate execution of the work involved.
All submittals shall become the property of Kittitas County.
Kittitas County reserves the right to reject all submittals and re-advertise if necessary.
