ANTI-LOBBYING PROVISION

During the period between proposal / sealed bid submission date and the contract award, proposers, including their agents and representatives, shall not directly discuss or promote their proposal with any member of the City of Burleson City Council or City staff except in the course of City-Sponsored inquiries, briefings, interviews, or presentations, unless requested by the City.

This provision is not meant to preclude offerors from discussing other matters with City Council members or City staff. This policy is intended to create a level playing field for all potential offerors, assure that contract decisions are made in public, and to protect the integrity of the RFP / Bid Evaluation process.

Violation of this provision may result in rejection of the offeror’s proposal.

LAWS AND ORDINANCES

Laws and Ordinances: The Contractor shall at all times observe and comply with all Federal, State and local laws, ordinances and regulations which in any manner affect the Contract or the work, and shall indemnify and save harmless the City against any claim arising from the violation of any such laws, ordinances and regulations whether by the Contractor or his employees.

PROTECTION OF RESIDENT WORKERS

Protection of Resident Workers: The City of Burleson actively supports the Immigration and Nationality
