This is an E-Verify compliance exhibit submitted by the City of Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana, for the Raised Crosswalk Improvements project at Gray Road and Hazel Dell Roundabouts. The document establishes employment eligibility verification requirements that all contractors and subcontractors must satisfy through the E-Verify system as a condition of contract performance. The project encompasses construction of raised crosswalks at six intersections, including installation of storm sewer, full depth patching, curb and gutter replacement, and sidewalk construction. Sealed bids are due by 9:00 am on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, via the City's e-Procurement Portal, with a non-mandatory pre-bid conference scheduled for Thursday, January 22, 2026, at 1:00 pm. The project is phased with a substantial completion date of August 10, 2026, and final project completion required by September 10, 2026.

The E-Verify exhibit mandates that the general contractor and all subcontractors must enroll in and utilize the E-Verify system to verify the employment eligibility of all employees performing work on the project. This requirement aligns with Indiana law and federal immigration compliance standards. The exhibit specifies documentation requirements and verification procedures that must be completed prior to employee work commencement. Contractors must maintain records demonstrating compliance with E-Verify procedures throughout the contract term. The City of Carmel will fund the project through municipal appropriations, with the contract awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Performance and payment bonds at 100 percent of the contract price and a 10 percent maintenance bond for three years following final acceptance are required conditions of contract award.
