Conditions
The City of Forsyth
reserves the right to reject any
or all proposals or to award
the contract to the next most

successful consulting engineer
does not execute the contract
within (30) days after the
award of the proposal. The City of Forsyth,

Scope of Service
The City of Forsyth
is seeking a qualified company
to design mountain bike trails
and pump tracks at two
different locations. The
company awarded this
contract will first produce a
master plan for The Gateway
Trail by October 17, 2022. The
Gateway Trail is intended to be
designed with a series of
green, blue, and black trails
being phased in, beginning
with a green, cross country
trail. A pump track will also be
part of the design. The master
plan will have a breakdown of
phases for each trail addition.
The second trail system will be
at Shoals Bend Park, and be of
similar design. The party to
whom this contract is awarded
will be responsible for
studying the lay of the land so
that the trails are designed in
such a manner that watershed
is considered, and
maintenance and repair
minimized. The letter of
interest for this project needs
to include a cost for the
master plan of The Gateway
Trail, and specify that the cost
for the master plan of the
second trail system at Shoals
Bend Park will not exceed that
amount.
