The original RFP stated: The City of Asheville has adopted the Asheville Business Inclusion Policy to encourage the participation of women- and minority-owned businesses in the public bidding/RFP process. The purpose of this outreach effort is to increase the likelihood of availability and utilization of MWBEs in the award of contracts. Proposers are hereby notified that this RFP is subject to the provisions of that Policy.

This is now changed to: The City of Asheville Business Inclusion Policy Operational Pause is in effect from August 21-December 21, 2026. Therefore, during this Operational Policy Pause, the Asheville Business Inclusion Policy and MWBE Participation goal requirements noted in this Request for Proposal are no longer required.

I understand that failure to acknowledge any addenda may result in this bid/proposal being deemed non-responsive.
