4-03 - Local Business Presence Application.pdf

This is a Local Business Presence Consideration Application for the City of McKinney, Texas, used to evaluate competitive bids for the City Hall Interior Plants contract. The application is designed to assess economic development benefits and local business participation in the award decision. Bidders whose principal place of business is located within McKinney city limits may apply for consideration. The application requires companies to confirm their location eligibility by providing their business name, address, and business structure, along with information about owners, partners, or corporate officers and their cities of residence. The primary objective is to determine whether awarding the contract would generate economic benefits for the city, including job creation or retention of local residents, increased tax revenue, and other developmental advantages.

The application specifically requests documentation of current employees who are McKinney residents, confirmation of whether the contract award would result in employment or retention of city residents, and identification of any tax revenue increases to the city, including property taxes, sales taxes, or hotel occupancy taxes. Applicants are also invited to describe additional economic development benefits they deem relevant. The certification section requires the company representative to affirm under penalty of perjury that all supplied information is true and correct as of the application date. This application serves as a supplementary evaluation tool to prioritize local business participation in the City of McKinney's competitive procurement process without imposing set-aside restrictions.
