There may be portions of concrete under the buildings that may remain but the remaining portions of the building will be expected to be removed at the expense of the winning bidder. The winning bidder will be expected to completely remove the entire structures within sixty (60) days and be responsible for the entire cost associated with removing and transporting of building materials. These costs include but are not limited to labor, equipment, permits, insurance, bonding, and any other costs applicable from any laws and regulations concerning such type of work. Removal of the structures will be coordinated with the city and comply with applicable regulations.
