This is a Contractor's Release of Liens form (Document 00 65 19.16) associated with Montgomery Township's sealed bid procurement for the supply and installation of front power take-off (PTO), front 3-point hitch, and an 11-foot or 12-foot hydraulic angle snowplow for a John Deere 6120M tractor. The project requires qualified suppliers and dealers to provide all labor and materials necessary to transport the tractor off-site, supply and install a LAFORGE PR5.5/6R front PTO and front 3-point hitch system, supply the snowplow with required adapter kits and hardware, and transport the tractor back to Montgomery Township's facility located at 1001 Stump Road, Montgomeryville, Pennsylvania 18936-9605. Sealed bids were submitted online via PennBid with a submission deadline of June 30, 2026 at 10:30 A.M., with public bid opening scheduled at the same location and time. Bids remain subject to acceptance for sixty days following the bid opening unless the bidder agrees otherwise in writing.

The release of liens form serves as a legal document executed upon receipt of final payment, contingent upon the contractor receiving the full contract amount. Each bid submission required a bid bond or certified check equal to ten percent of the bid amount. The successful contractor must furnish Performance and Payment Bonds each in the amount of 100% of the contract value. The work is subject to Pennsylvania's Public Works Employment Verification Act (Act 127). PennBid assesses a nominal fee of 0.33% of the bid amount (minimum $150, maximum $6,000) only to awarded bidders. Bids may be withdrawn within two business days following bid opening only in strict compliance with Pennsylvania Statutes Section 1602 and subsequent amendments. Montgomery Township reserves the right to reject any or all bids.
