1-Boycott Statement - Attachment.pdf

This is a Public Contract Boycott Restriction Statement attachment required by the Cache County School District in Utah for vendors seeking to contract with the district to provide goods or services. The statement, revised September 10, 2024, implements compliance requirements under Utah Code 63G-27 (S.B. 97) and applies to all vendor solicitations, including the current Invitation for Bid for asbestos-containing floor tile and mastic removal at North Cache Middle School. Vendors must certify that they are not currently engaged in an "economic boycott" or "boycott of the State of Israel" as defined in the statute and must agree to maintain compliance throughout the contract term if awarded.

The statement prohibits vendors from engaging in boycotts of specified entities and activities without ordinary business purpose, including boycotts of the State of Israel, traditional energy companies, mining or agriculture companies, firearm manufacturers and distributors, companies failing to meet environmental standards beyond state and federal requirements, and companies that do not facilitate access to abortion or sex characteristic surgeries. Vendors must sign and submit the completed attachment with their bid response, providing their company name, printed name, date, and the solicitation name and number. Any vendor that engages in a prohibited boycott during the contract period must immediately notify the Cache County School District in writing.
