CONFIDENTIALITY/DISCLOSURE

“Contractor” refers to all Bidders/Respondents submitting a bid/proposal.

The Town will afford due regard to the Contractor’s request for the protection of proprietary or confidential information received. However, all materials associated with the Bid/Proposal and the Contract are subject to the terms of the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”) and all corresponding rules, regulations and interpretations. In making such a request, the Contractor may not state generally that the materials are proprietary or confidential in nature and therefore not subject to release to third parties. The specific sentences, paragraphs, pages or sections that the Contractor believes are exempt from disclosure under FOIA must be specifically identified as such. An explanation and rationale to justify each exemption consistent with FOIA must accompany the request. The rationale and explanation must be stated in terms of the prospective harm to the competitive position of the Contractor that would result if the identified material were to be released and the reasons why the materials are legally exempt from release pursuant to FOIA.

If the Contractor indicates that certain documentation is submitted in confidence, by specifically and clearly marking said documentation as CONFIDENTIAL, the Town will endeavor to keep said information confidential to the extent permitted by law. The Town, however, shall have no obligation to initiate, prosecute or defend any information that is sought pursuant to a FOIA request. The Contractor shall have the burden of establishing the availability of any FOIA exemption in any proceeding where it is an issue. In no event shall the Town, or any representative of the Town, be liable for the disclosure of any documents or information in its possession which the Town believes are required to be disclosed pursuant to FOIA or other requirements as mandated by policy/law.

Additionally, as per Section 1-210(b) of FOIA – Nothing in the Freedom of Information Act shall be construed to require the disclosure of:

(24) Responses to any request for proposals or bid solicitation issued by a public agency, responses by a public agency to any request for proposals or bid solicitation issued by a private entity or any record or file made by a public agency in connection with the contract award process, until such contract is executed or negotiations for the award of such contract have ended, whichever occurs earlier, provided the chief executive officer of such public agency certifies that the public interest in the disclosure of such responses, record or file is outweighed by the public interest in the confidentiality of such responses, record or file.
