The Village of Estero (Village) is issuing this Request for Proposals (RFP) inasmuch as it is inviting proposals from qualified Construction Management at Risk vendors with experience in development and construction of infrastructure to support eventual construction of two to three entertainment venues. Florida Statutes 255.103 authorizes a governmental entity to select a construction management entity, pursuant to the process provided by Florida Statutes 287.055, which is to be responsible for construction project scheduling and coordination in both preconstruction and construction phases and generally responsible for the successful, timely, and economical completion of the construction project. The Village owns an approximately 20.8-acre parcel located at 9000 Williams Road, Estero (described in the attached survey) (the Property) with the intent of improving the Property to provide recreational opportunities for Village residents. The Property, which currently houses a golf driving range, a stormwater pond, wooded property, is contiguous to public properties owned by Lee County and the Lee School District, both of which have current recreational uses or designations. The Village envisioned the creation of enhanced recreational activities for residents. The Village is completing negotiations with private providers of entertainment options and as part of those negotiations, the Village will be transferring ownership of certain parcels within the Property to the private providers, in a pad-ready state for those providers to perform vertical construction of their respective venues. In addition to making the parcels pad-ready, the Village will need overall site preparation and subsequent construction of the common area infrastructure, including utilities, drainage, parking, and landscaping/irrigation facilities. The project will require having building pads ready as part of a phase 1 construction so vertical construction can begin while the remaining site/civil construction is ongoing. The Village seeks to retain a construction management firm to build the site/civil portions of the Village Center Hub project on the Property.
