Renovation of a service station / car wash facility in Peach Springs, Arizona. Completed plans call for the renovation of a service station / car wash facility.

As of July 21 ,2023 the project was awarded to Axiom Construction for $375,737.17. All questions, whether they are of an administrative, contractual, or technical nature, shall be directed to the attention of Kevin A. Davidson, Planning & Economic Development Director, (928) 769-1310, Kevin.Davidson@hualapai-nsn.gov The site is located at 888 Historic Route 66 on the Hualapai Indian Reservation in Peach Springs, Arizona. The building was constructed in 1929. It is an unoccupied, single-story, concrete block structure approximately 3,200 square feet in size that was formerly used as a gas station. It contains a large vehicle service area, a convenience store area, a restroom, office, utility room, and back room. A stairway in the back room on the southwestern portion of the building leads to the cellar. The building is on the National Register of Historic Places. Between 2010 and 2014 the building's roof was repaired and foundation stabilized. Storms in late 2021 and early 2023 have destroyed most of the roof structure and knocked down most of the east wall. In 2017, the building was assessed for hazardous materials with some lead paint found on the structure and on the ground around it (see attached report extract "Appendix J"). Prior to start of the work, the successful firm must possess both permit issued by Mohave County Development Services and the Tribal Environmental Review Commission. These permits are in process but require evidence of the contractor's license prior to being issued to the contractor. The successful firm must also complete and submit a Compliance Plan under the Tribe's Tribal Employment Rights Office (TERO) to assure that qualified Tribal members and Native Americans are given opportunities to perform work as employees of the firm or team. Selection of the Contractor is subject to a determination by the Tribe that the contractor is responsive, qualified, responsible, and eligible to contract for federally funded activities. In determining bidder(s) qualifications, the Tribe may require a meeting at its convenience within seven days of bid opening. The Bid is subject to Indian Preference. If an Indian-owned firm's price is within 8% of the low bid, the contract will be awarded to that firm. However, proposals by qualified non-Indian firms are strongly encouraged. The Community reserves the right to reject any and all proposals. PRE-BID CONFERENCE: The date and time of a pre-submittal conference, if applicable, is indicated on the cover page of this document.
