Invitation To Bid

Once project funding is secured and the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors authorizes the a project's advertisement, bids, plans and specifications are made available to the public for bidding purposes.  Only plans, special provisions, and other bid documents that have been purchased from the Department of Public Works can be submitted with a bid proposal.  Plans and specifications that are posted online, exhibited at Builders Exchanges, or as otherwise made available are considered to be for "informational purposes" and cannot be submitted as a valid bid.  
The County of Humboldt maintains a central web page for Request for Proposals.

Plans, Special Provisions (not including documents included by reference) and Proposal Forms may be obtained by prospective Bidders upon advance payment of a non-refundable printing and service charge in the amount of  $15.00. All checks shall be made payable to COUNTY OF HUMBOLDT and should be mailed along with the request for Plans to:
 

Humboldt County Department of Public Works 
1106 Second Street 
Eureka, California, 95501.

Only those contractors/consultants that have purchased a bid package from the Department of Public Works are placed on a “Plan Holder’s List" which is used to determine whether or not a contractor/consultant is a "responsive bidder".
