About this file

This is a Certification of Business Location Form issued by the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County, Florida, in connection with an RFP for Disclosure Counsel Services. The form establishes the local preference policy requirements for proposers seeking to obtain a local preference in the solicitation process. To qualify for local preference consideration, proposers must maintain a permanent place of business within Palm Beach County and demonstrate that such business location has existed for a minimum of one year prior to the Authority's issuance of the solicitation. Proposers must submit a completed Certification of Business Location form along with a valid Palm Beach County Business Tax Receipt issued by the Palm Beach County Tax Collector at the time of proposal submission. The form requires proposers to indicate whether their business is classified as a local business with headquarters or a permanent office located within the county from which a substantial portion of goods and services will be produced.

The Business Tax Receipt and completed Certification form serve as the sole determinants for establishing local preference eligibility; any errors in completion or failure to submit the required documentation will result in forfeiture of local preference consideration. For proposers exempt by law from obtaining a Business Tax Receipt, alternative documentation demonstrating a permanent place of business within the county prior to solicitation issuance must be provided along with a citation to the specific statutory exemption. The Solid Waste Authority retains the right to contact proposers for additional information following the proposal submission deadline. Proposers must acknowledge that misrepresentation on this certification may result in disqualification from the current and future solicitations. All proposal submissions must be made electronically through Euna/Bonfire by the date and time specified in the RFP document, with no consideration given to responses received through alternative submission methods.
