Local Preference Form.pdf

This is a Local Supplier Preference Form for the City of Largo, Florida, applicable to an Advocacy Services contract opportunity. The form requires organizations seeking local supplier preference status to declare their eligibility prior to proposal submission. Bidders must circle whether they are requesting or declining local supplier preference and acknowledge that the City will verify their eligibility claims. Organizations submitting false local supplier preference claims risk disqualification from further consideration in the procurement process. The form requires completion of organization name, tax identification number, signature, and date of submission.

The form enforces compliance with Section 2-159 of the City of Largo Code of Ordinances regarding the Local Supplier Preference Program. Bidders are required to review applicable ordinance provisions independently to confirm their organization meets all program requirements before submitting preference claims. The City reserves verification authority to validate eligibility determinations, with explicit penalties for fraudulent claims that may result in proposal rejection and elimination from competition.
