Site work and new construction of a religious / funeral development in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Completed plans call for the construction of a religious / funeral development.

Project No: 02-25-25-6, 2403, 24-190 Beaufort County, in partnership with the Town of Hilton Head Island and St. James Baptist Church, invites qualified general contractors to submit proposals for the construction of a new St. James Baptist Church facility and the relocation of the historic Cherry Hill School. The project will include complete site development - parking, utilities, stormwater infrastructure, landscaping, and other related improvements- at a new site within the historic Mitchelville area of Hilton Head Island. This project represents the culmination of years of collaboration between the County, Town, and Church to address longstanding safety concerns associated with the church's current location beneath the Hilton Head Island Airport runway approach path. The new facility will serve as a vibrant house of worship and community gathering place while honoring the congregation's historical roots and preserving the legacy of Mitchelville. The Cherry Hill School relocation, a companion effort under this contract, will safeguard one of Hilton Head's most meaningful cultural landmarks through careful preservation and reconstruction at the new site. The County seeks a single general contractor capable of delivering both elements of this work with excellence combining technical construction skill, experience with places of worship and historic structures, and a deep appreciation for community heritage. Vendors with demonstrated experience in church construction or historic preservation projects are strongly encouraged to apply. Question Submission Deadline:January 16, 2026, 5:00pm
