Question 1
Posted: 8/3/2023
Question: Will you post the planholders list?
Response: We do not maintain a "Planholders List." However, we have published the sign in sheet from the Non-Mandatory Pre-Proposal conference.
Question 2
Posted: 8/10/2023
Question: In the project manual, specification section 00 43 43 is the prevailing wage rates. Upon review, these wage rates do not apply to apartment buildings up to 4 stories (They are non-residential). We believe this is not the correct wage determination for this type of construction. We are currently working on another HUD/THDA project, and the applicable wage rate determination is TN20220022 dated 02/25/2022, which is for residential construction in Knox and Anderson counties including apartments up to and including 4 stories in height. The rates in the determination included as part of this RFP are significantly higher than the residential rates. (For example, a carpenter is $20.09 vs. $13.89 in the residential determination). Please confirm if the residential wage rates will apply to this project as well.
Response: KCDC will address this question in the forthcoming addendum.
Question 3
Posted: 8/15/2023
Question: In Section 12 of the Solicitation, it indicates that an Addendum will be posted reflecting the project insurance requirements. This information is needed in order to have Appendix 4 signed by our insurance company. Is this information available yet?
Response: Please see the correct contract sample documents that were posted today 08-15-23 as they have the insurance requirements.
Question 4
Posted: 8/16/2023
Question: In the Solicitation, Document F lists several affidavits that must be submitted with the proposal. Are there specific forms that KCDC furnishes that can be filled out and submitted, or are generic affidavits acceptable?
