About this file

This document is the Conditions of Award attachment for a City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement solicitation for park tree planting services across three city parks: Peterson Park, Chandler Park, and Patton Park. The project involves furnishing, delivering, and planting up to 400 trees. The successful respondent must complete and submit several required forms and clearances prior to City Council approval, including notarized City of Detroit Consolidated Affidavits covering hiring policy compliance, slavery era and prison industry records disclosure, covenant of equal opportunity, and statement of political contributions and expenditures. Additional mandatory documentation includes a sample employment application, certificate of insurance complying with the model agreement's coverage requirements, income and revenue tax clearance from the City of Detroit Treasury, and active System of Awards Management (SAM) registration documentation.

The affidavits and clearances establish compliance requirements with Detroit City Code regarding non-discrimination in hiring and employment practices, equal opportunity provisions, and transparency regarding any political contributions made to city elective officials within the previous four years. Contractors must demonstrate that their hiring policies comply with Chapter 17, Article V, Division 6 of the 2019 Detroit City Code and that employment applications do not inquire about criminal convictions until after candidate qualification determination. The certificate of insurance must be from providers registered with the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services, with waivers available for organizations without employees or vehicles. Treasury clearance and SAM registration require minimum processing periods of 10 days and 10-15 days respectively, though clearances are not required for initial RFP submission, only for the successful respondent prior to City Council approval.
