This is a Certificate of Final Payment form associated with the Washington Avenue Box Culvert Restoration Project bid solicitation issued by the Clay County Board of County Commissioners in Florida. The certificate serves as the vendor's formal attestation that all work has been completed and materials have been applied in accordance with the contract terms and conditions. The vendor must certify that all subcontractors and suppliers who have an interest in the contract have received their pro rata shares from previous progress payments for completed work, minus any retainage withheld by the prime contractor pursuant to subcontractor agreements. Additionally, the vendor certifies that within 10 days of receiving the final progress payment, all subcontractors and suppliers will be paid their pro rata shares for all completed work and furnished materials from the final payment period.

The form requires the vendor to provide the final payment number, final payment due date, the vendor name, and authorized signature with date. This certificate is a standard contract closeout document that protects the County by ensuring proper payment distribution down the subcontractor chain and confirming contractual compliance prior to final payment release. The form must be submitted as part of the project completion documentation for the federally-funded Hurricane Milton disaster recovery project, which is subject to Davis-Bacon wage requirements and 2 CFR Part 200 compliance. Performance and payment bonds are required for this project, and submission of the certificate of final payment is mandatory per the RFB documents.
