This document is a locational eligibility form issued by the City of Fort Worth Purchasing Division for Invitation to Bid (ITB) Reference #26-0056 concerning a one-time purchase of a Brine Machine, Salt Supply, and Tank for the Transportation & Public Works Department. The form allows the Fort Worth City Council to consider awarding the contract to a local bidder whose principal place of business is located within the corporate limits of Fort Worth, provided their bid is within 3 to 5 percent of the lowest submitted bid, depending on the contract value and nature of goods or services requested.
