Description
The Closter Board of Education is seeking sealed bids for a full replacement of the sidewalks serving Hillside Elementary School. The project involves demolition of existing concrete, grading, installation of new ADA‑compliant concrete paving, drainage improvements, and related site work. Bidders must be listed on the official plan‑holder list, be registered under New Jersey’s Public Works Contractor Registration Act, and submit a bid bond up to $20,000. The bid package costs $50 and is available online; a pre‑bid meeting is scheduled, and the bid submission deadline is tight, giving contractors roughly four weeks to develop a responsive bid. Funding may include a grant from the New Jersey Schools Development Authority, though the total contract value is not disclosed.
