The City of Spokane is seeking a qualified contractor to fully restore the historic Japanese Garden pond at Manito Park. The scope includes demolition of existing hardscape, replacement of bridge decks and railings, repair/replacement of vault lids, installation of a new recirculating pump system with filtration, surface skimmers, jet nozzles, upgraded lighting, and complete irrigation and drainage upgrades. Work must comply with Washington prevailing‑wage rules, AIA A201‑2007 contract conditions, and must be completed by mid‑May 2021. The contractor will also coordinate with city utilities, arborists, and a koi‑fish consultant for any pond‑water level reductions.
• Base‑bid items: bridge deck and curb replacement, steel repair, conduit, railing, illumination, and vault‑lid replacement.
• Mechanical upgrades: new pump, filtration, skimmers, recirculating jets, and “keep‑fill” system modifications.
• Site requirements: utility locates, traffic control, erosion control BMPs, tree protection, and full permitting; all work to be performed behind a closed‑gate garden for the project duration.
