About this file

This document is a Company Affidavit for Local Preference from the City of Fort Myers, Florida, designed to verify a company's local office status and personnel location for a potential contract opportunity. The affidavit requires companies to demonstrate they have a valid Business Tax License from Lee County for at least six months prior to proposal submission, with a physical business address within Lee County. The form allows companies to claim local preference points based on their office location: 5 points for an office within Fort Myers city limits, 3 points for an office within Lee County, and 0 points for no local office.

The affidavit includes two key sections for scoring: office location and team personnel associated with the project. Companies must provide their legal registration name, state of registration, headquarters and local office addresses, federal tax ID, and Lee County Business Tax Number. A notarized section requires the signee to guarantee the truth and accuracy of the information provided. The document emphasizes that misrepresenting local preference status will result in losing local preference privileges for one year, and failure to provide supporting documentation may render the proposal non-responsive.
