The City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals or waive any informality or technicality in any proposal. All proposals shall hold firm for a period of sixty (60) days after the date of opening.
Proposals will not be considered complete and will therefore be rejected if all required documents are not returned and complete at the time of the opening.
k. ADDENDA: All addenda shall become part of the document and be included in the proposal at the time of opening.
l. LOCAL VENDOR PREFERENCE: In awarding bids for public work or for the procurement of supplies or services, preference shall be given to local vendors. A "local vendor" is defined as a business having:
(1) a commercial office, store, distribution center, or other place of business located within the boundaries of the City, with an intent to remain on a permanent basis; (2) a current St. George City business license; and, (3) at least one employee physically present at the local business outlet.
All three criteria must be met in order to qualify as a local vendor. If there are no bidders who qualify as a local vendor, the same preference may then be extended to residents of Washington County under the conditions below.
If a low bid is submitted by a non-local bidder, the bid may be awarded to a local vendor if the local resident's bid is within five percent (5%) of the low non-local bid, and if the local vendor agrees, in writing, within seventy-two (72) hours after notification that he is the qualified referred bidder, to meet the low bid. Such notice shall contain the exact bid submitted by the non-local bidder, and the Purchasing Agent shall enter into no contract until seventy-two (72) hours have elapsed after notification to the local vendor. The principal place of business of a local vendor may be elsewhere as long as a local branch meeting the above criteria is present. The domicile of one or more partners, owners, associates, directors, employees or agents shall not qualify for constituting a local vendor in the absence of an actual local business outlet.
m. LICENSING: The successful bidder will be required to show proof of St. George City Business License or registration with the business license officer and shall be in compliance with Worker's Compensation rules and laws.
n. EQUIPMENT SPECIFICATIONS: All specifications contained herein are meant to be descriptive and not restrictive. All equipment being bid herein shall be new in its entirety, unless otherwise specified.
I-A2-02 OWNER'S RIGHT RESERVED: The City of St. George reserves the right to reject any or all proposals for any reason whatsoever.
