The form requires vendors to certify their status as local businesses in accordance with Section Sixteen of the Collier County Procurement Ordinance. To qualify as a local business, vendors must maintain a physical business address within Collier County limits from which staff operates and performs business in an appropriately zoned area, contribute verifiably and measurably to the county's economic development and well-being through employment retention and expansion or tax base support, and possess a current local Business Tax Receipt issued by the Collier County Tax Collector prior to bid submission. Vendors must affirm their compliance in writing at the time of bid or proposal submission to be eligible for local preference consideration.

The certification must be completed by a duly authorized corporate representative and submitted under penalty of perjury. Upon request by the County, vendors are required to provide documentation substantiating the information provided in the certification; failure to do so will result in the submission being deemed non-responsive.

Vendor affirms that it is a local business as defined by Section Sixteen of the Collier County Procurement Ordinance:

• A physical business address in Collier County with a County business address as listed with the Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations located within the limits of Collier County from which the vendor's staff operates and performs business in an area zoned for the conduct of such business. A post office box or a facility that receives mail, or a non-permanent structure such as a construction trailer, storage shed, or other non-permanent structure shall not be used to establish the physical address. In addition to the foregoing, a vendor shall not be considered a "local business" unless it contributes to the economic development and well-being of Collier County in a verifiable and measurable way. This may include, but not be limited to, the retention and expansion of employment opportunities, support and increase to the County's tax base, and residency of employees and principals of the business within Collier County. Vendors shall affirm in writing their compliance with the foregoing at the time of submitting their bid or proposal to be eligible for consideration as a "local business" under this section. A vendor who misrepresents the Local Preference status of its firm in a proposal or bid submitted to the County will lose the privilege to claim Local Preference status for a period of up to one year; and

• A current local Business Tax Receipt (also known as an Occupational License) issued by the Collier County Tax Collector prior to bid or proposal submission.

If requested by the County, Vendor will be required to provide documentation substantiating the information given in this certification. Failure to do so will result in the vendor’s submission being deemed non-responsive.

Under penalties of perjury, I certify that the information shown on this form is correct to my knowledge and a duly corporate authorized representative with signature authority.
