About this file

This is an Affidavit of Eligibility form issued by the City of Midland, Texas, for consideration of bidders whose principal place of business is located within the city limits. The form applies to bids ranging from $50,000 to $100,000 for services and up to $500,000 for commodities. Bidders seeking local preference consideration must complete and submit the affidavit to Erika Martinez, Purchasing Manager, at the City of Midland's offices located at 300 N. Loraine Street, PO Box 1152, Midland, TX 79702-1152. The form requires bidders to provide their local business name and address within city limits, confirm whether the listed address is their principal place of business, disclose the number of City of Midland residents employed at that location, and state the year the business was established in the city.

The affidavit requires submission of reseller permit information if applicable, disclosure of multiple office locations within Texas, and confirmation of business and real property tax payment obligations to the City of Midland for the most recent tax year. Pursuant to Texas Local Government Code 271.9051, if a local bidder's price falls within five percent of the lowest bid received from a non-local bidder, the City Council may award the contract to the local bidder based on a determination that the local option provides the best combination of contract price and additional economic development opportunities, including local employment and increased tax revenues. Bidders submitting false information face a one-year prohibition from bidding on City of Midland products and services. Incomplete affidavits may be rejected.
