Description
The City of Asheville is seeking contractors to execute a comprehensive historic‑park‑recovery effort at Montford Park and Riverside Cemetery. The scope includes site grading, utility relocation, temporary staging, erosion‑control and tree‑protection measures, storm‑water management, installation of site amenities (benches, fountains, lighting, signage, etc.), and extensive landscaping/planting to restore historic character while meeting modern code and environmental requirements. The project is divided into 15 individual “sites” with phased construction plans and detailed engineering drawings.
• Site‑construction plans cover grading, drainage, utility trenching, and temporary facilities.
• Erosion‑control package requires silt fences, straw mulch, check‑dams, and specified stabilization time‑frames (7‑day and 14‑day periods).
• Utility coordination involves NC 811 call‑out, multiple public‑utility contacts, and integration of water, sewer, electric, and telecom services.
• Landscape work includes soil amendment, seeding, mulching, and planting windows based on regional climate zones.
• Deliverables include completed grading, utility installations, installed amenities, and restored historic‑park features ready for public use.
