INSTRUCTION TO BIDDERS

FOR CONSTRUCTION

1. Use of Separate Bid Forms

These contract documents include a complete set of bid and contract forms which are for the convenience of the bidders and are not to be detached from the contact document, completed or executed. Separate bid forms are provided for your use.

2. Interpretations or Addenda

Each request for an interpretation shall be made to the engineer. Each interpretation made will be in the form of an Addendum to the contract documents and will be distributed to all parties holding contract documents no less than one (1) day prior to the bid opening. It is, however, the bidder's responsibility to make inquiry as to any addenda issued. All such addenda shall become part of the contract documents and all bidders shall be bound by such addenda, whether or not received by the bidder.

3. Inspection of Site

Each bidder should visit the site of the proposed work and fully acquaint himself with the existing conditions there and should fully inform himself as to the facilities involved, the difficulties and restrictions attending the performance of the contract. The bidder should thoroughly examine and familiarize himself with the drawings, technical specifications and all other contract documents. The contractor, by the execution of the contract, shall in no way be relieved of any obligation under it due to his failure to receive or examine any form or legal document or to visit the site or acquaint himself with the conditions there existing. The City will be justified in rejecting any claim based on lack of inspection of the site prior to the bid.

4. Bids

a) All bids must be submitted on the forms provided and are subject to all requirements of the Contract Documents, including the Drawings.

b) All bids must be regular in every respect and no interlineation, excisions or special conditions may be made or included by the bidder.

c) The City may consider as irregular any bid on which there is an alteration of or departure from the bid form and, at its option, may reject any irregular bid.

d) If contract is awarded, it will be awarded to a responsible bidder on the basis of the lowest/best bid and the selected alternate bid items, if any. The contract will require the completion of the work in accordance with the contract documents.

I - 2

5. Bid Bond

a) A bid bond in the amount of 5% of the bid issued by the acceptable surety shall be submitted with each bid. A certified check or bank draft payable to the City may be submitted in lieu of the Bid Bond.

b) The bid bond or its comparable, will be returned to the bidder as soon as practical after the opening of the bids.

6. Unit Price

The unit price for each of the several items in the bid shall include its pro rata share of overhead so that the sum of the products obtained by multiplying the quantity shown for each item by the unit price bid represents the total bid. Any bid not conforming to this requirement may be rejected as informal. Special attention is drawn to this condition, as the unit prices will be used to determine the amount of any change orders resulting from an increase or decrease in quantities.

7. Corrections

Erasures or other corrections in the bid must be noted over the signature of the bidder.

8. Time for Receiving Bids

Bids received prior to the advertised hour of opening will be kept securely sealed. The officer appointed to open the bids shall decide when he specified time has arrived and no bid received thereafter will be considered; except that when a bid arrives by mail after the time fixed for opening, but before the reading of all other bids is completed, and it is shown to satisfaction of the City that the late arrival of the bid was solely due to delay in the mail for which the bidder was not responsible, such bid will be received and considered.

9. Opening of Bids

The City shall, at the time and place fixed for the opening of bids, open each bid and publicly read it aloud, irrespective of any irregularities therein. Bidders and other interested individuals may be present.

10. Withdrawal of Bids

Bidder may withdraw the bid before the time fixed for the opening of bids, by communicating his purpose in writing to the City. Upon receipt of such notice, the unopened bid will be returned to the bidder. The bid guaranty of any bidder withdrawing his bid will be returned promptly.

I - 3

11. Award of Contract/Rejection of Bids

a) The contract will be awarded to the responsive, responsible Bidder submitting the lowest/best bid. The bidder selected will be notified at the earliest possible date.

The City reserves the right to reject any or all bids and to waive any informality in bids received where such rejection or waiver is in its interest.

12. Execution of Agreement/Performance and Payment Bonds

a) The failure of the successful bidder to execute the agreement and supply the required bonds within ten (10) days after the prescribed forms are presented for signature, or within such extended period as the City may grant, shall constitute a default and the City may, at its option either award the contract to the next lowest responsible bidder, or re-advertise for bids. In either case, the City may charge against the bidder the difference between the amount of the bid, and the amount for which a contract is subsequently executed irrespective of whether this difference exceeds the amount of the bid bond. If a more favorable bid is received through re-advertisement, the defaulting bidder shall have no claim against the City for a refund.

Unless otherwise specified, all materials shall be new and both workmanship and materials shall be of a good quality. The CONTRACTOR shall, if required, furnish satisfactory evidence as to the kind and quality of materials. Materials or work described in words, which so applied, have a well-known technical or trade meaning shall be held to refer to such recognized standards.
