About this file
The document is a Company Affidavit form for a local preference certification issued by the City of Fort Myers in Lee County, Florida, designed for companies seeking to demonstrate their local office status in a competitive bidding process. The form allows businesses to claim points based on their office location within the City of Fort Myers (5 points) or Lee County (3 points), with the goal of providing a preference to local businesses during proposal evaluations. Companies must have a valid Business Tax License issued by Lee County at least six months prior to proposal submission and possess a physical business address within the county limits.
The affidavit requires detailed documentation of the company's legal registration, headquarters and local office addresses, federal tax ID, and Lee County Business Tax Number. To qualify for local preference, companies must demonstrate in-county/in-office capability and availability of personnel performing services relevant to the project. The form includes a notarization section to verify the truthfulness of the information provided, and warns that misrepresenting local preference status can result in losing the privilege to claim local preference for one year. This specific affidavit is associated with a Community Development Block Grant-Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) Staff Augmentation opportunity for the City of Fort Myers, which involves potential projects in critical infrastructure, public facilities, affordable housing, and planning.
