About this file
This is a certification document for Lubbock County, Texas related to ITB 260102 for Elevator Maintenance services. The document serves as a compliance certification requirement for vendors bidding on this contract opportunity.
The certification addresses two primary compliance areas established by Texas legislation: prohibitions on boycotting energy companies (per Texas Government Code Section 2274.002, added by the 87th Legislature S.B. 13) and prohibitions on discrimination against firearm entities or firearm trade associations (per Texas Government Code Section 2274.002, added by S.B. 19). Vendors must certify their compliance with these requirements unless they qualify for an exemption based on being a sole proprietorship, non-profit entity, or a company with fewer than ten full-time employees where the contract value is less than $100,000. Vendors not meeting exemption criteria must sign and submit certification affirming they do not boycott energy companies and do not discriminate against firearm entities or associations during the contract term. The document requires vendors to select the applicable certification option and provide a signature, making it a mandatory component of the bidding process.
