Familial Relationship Disclosure.docx

This is a Familial Relationship Disclosure Statement required by Mason Consolidated Schools in Michigan, as mandated by Public Act 232 of 2004. All bidders submitting proposals for contracts with the school district must complete and submit this sworn and notarized disclosure statement along with their bids. The statement requires bidders to disclose any familial relationships existing between the owner or any employee of the bidding company and any member of the Mason Consolidated Schools Board or the Superintendent. Bidders must represent and warrant that no such relationships exist, unless otherwise specified in an explanation section provided on the form. The document must be notarized in the state of Michigan before submission.

The disclosure statement serves as a compliance and transparency mechanism to ensure fair bidding practices and prevent conflicts of interest in the procurement process. Bidders are required to have an authorized company officer sign the statement and provide identifying information. The notarization requirement includes specification of the county where the notary is commissioned and the date of acknowledgment. Failure to include this completed and notarized disclosure with a bid submission would result in non-compliance with state law requirements for Mason Consolidated Schools contract opportunities.
