About this file

This is a Proprietary Information Disclosure Form submitted to Milwaukee County, Wisconsin in response to a Request for Proposal for the acquisition and development of land and the County Medical Examiner's Office Building at 933 West Highland Avenue, Milwaukee. The form allows bidders to designate specific pages of their proposal responses as confidential and proprietary information protected under Wisconsin Statutes Section 19.36(5) and the Wisconsin Open Records Law. Bidders may request confidential treatment only for information qualifying as trade secrets, defined as information deriving independent economic value from not being generally known and being subject to reasonable efforts to maintain secrecy. The form requires bidders to specify which pages and topics they wish to protect from public disclosure.

Bidders submitting this form agree to provide legal counsel and hold Milwaukee County harmless for any costs or damages arising from the County's decision to withhold designated materials from public examination and copying. Notably, pricing information cannot be designated as confidential and will always become public information. The form emphasizes that failure to include the disclosure form with the proposal response may result in all submitted information being subject to public disclosure, and that other confidentiality markings within the proposal document are considered insufficient for legal protection purposes.

ATTACHMENT 1

PROPRIETARY INFORMATION DISCLOSURE FORM

The attached material submitted in response to the Request for Proposal includes proprietary and confidential information, which qualifies as a trade secret, as provided in s. 19.36(5), Wis. Stats. or is otherwise material that can be kept confidential under the Wisconsin Open Records Law. As such, we ask that certain pages, as indicated below, of this proposal response be treated as confidential material and not be released without our written approval.

Prices always become public information and therefore cannot be kept confidential.

Other information cannot be kept confidential unless it is a trade secret. Trade secret is defined in s. 134.90(1)(c). Wis. Stats. as follows: “Trade Secret” means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process to which all of the following apply:

1. The information derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use.

2. The information is the subject of efforts to maintain its secrecy that are reasonable under the circumstances.

We request that the following pages not be released:

Section Page # Topic

IN THE EVENT THE DESIGNATION OF CONFIDENTIALITY OF THIS INFORMATION IS CHALLENGED, THE UNDERSIGNED HERBY AGREES TO PROVIDE LEGAL COUNSEL OR OTHER NECESSARY ASSISTANCE TO DEFEND THE DESIGNATION OF CONFIDENTIALITY AND AGREES TO HOLD MILWAUKEE COUNTY HARMLESS FOR ANY COSTS OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF MILWAUKEE COUNTY’S AGREEMENT TO WITHHOLD THE MATERIALS.

Failure to include this form in the Request for Proposal may mean that all information provided as part of the proposal response will be open to examination and copying. Milwaukee County considers other markings of confidential in the proposal document to be insufficient. The undersigned agrees to hold Milwaukee County harmless for any damages arising out of the release of any materials unless they are specifically identified above.
