PWC Multi-Use Indoor Facility

Executive Summary Understanding the vision to serve Prince William County’s growing youth sports community by developing a new indoor athletic facility, Merritt Companies and Mr. Mike Garcia of Mike Garcia Construction, Inc. are pleased to respond to Prince William County’s Multi-Use Indoor Sports Complex Request for Information. With a history of strong collaboration on previous projects, Merritt Companies and Mike Garcia Construction have partnered once again to propose a site that provides excellent public access while accommodating the stated facility and parking requirements. River Ridge Recreational Facility, a location along River Ridge Boulevard in Dumfries, Virginia, would be situated upon a 17.28-acre site that is currently owned by Mr. Garcia. This location would accommodate the eastern side of the County’s 350-square-mile jurisdiction and surrounding areas, successfully catering to youth athletic training and competition in the community. Merritt Construction Services, a division of Merritt Companies, would serve as the development partner for the project, working in consultation with Mr. Garcia from feasibility through final construction. As detailed in the pages that follow, Merritt has significant experience in the design and construction of athletic facilities, which allows the company to provide innovative solutions and deliver this type of project on time and on budget. Founded in 1967, Merritt Construction Services is an industry leader that is dedicated to “building a better way.” Having studied the area and understanding concerns regarding population density and crowded schools, our team suggests a location that offers the additional capacity to host graduations and other community functions, in addition to indoor athletic events. Specifically, based upon feedback from the RFI and Merritt’s own assessment of the property, Merritt and Mike Garcia Construction would like to propose the following: Merritt Construction Services brings a wealth of knowledge and a strong understanding of Prince William County’s process to this proposal. The team’s land development and construction experience, specifically that of award-winning athletic facilities, will ensure a successful and well-received project delivery.
