About this file

This is an Affidavit of Compliance form required by the Town of Palm Beach, Florida Procurement and Contracts Division for the Police Station Improvements project. The affidavit serves as a prerequisite compliance document that contractors must execute and notarize before submitting bids for the project. The document requires the bidding entity to attest under penalty of perjury to compliance with Florida foreign entity laws and anti-human trafficking statutes. Specifically, contractors must confirm they are not owned or controlled by foreign governments designated as countries of concern, are not organized under foreign laws with a principal place of business abroad, and do not meet the definition of a foreign principal as defined under Florida Statutes Sections 287.138, 288.007, and 692.201-692.204. Additionally, for projects involving real property purchases, contractors must certify they are not prohibited foreign principals under applicable law.

The second compliance requirement mandates that contractors attest they are adult Florida residents and that their entity does not use coercion for labor or services as defined under Florida's human trafficking statutes (Section 787.06). The affiant must understand that false statements carry penalties including fines and imprisonment. The form requires execution by an authorized representative of the bidding entity, with signatures from both the contractor and a notary public who must acknowledge the affiant by physical presence or online notarization. The document provides blank fields for the date, entity name, title of authorized signatory, county location, and notary information. This affidavit must be completed and submitted as part of the competitive bidding process for the Police Station Improvements renovation and expansion project.
