Thereafter, if the Work is rebid, that Bidder will be disqualified from further bidding on the Work.

ARTICLE 17: OPENING OF BIDS

17.01 Bids will be opened at the time and place indicated in the advertisement or Invitation to Bid and, unless obviously non-responsive, read aloud publicly. An abstract of the amounts of the base Bids and major alternates, if any, will be made available to Bidders after the opening of Bids.

ARTICLE 18: BIDS TO REMAIN SUBJECT TO ACCEPTANCE

18.01 All Bids will remain subject to acceptance for the period of time stated in the Bid Form, but

OWNER may, in its sole discretion, release any Bid and return the Bid security prior to the end of this period.

ARTICLE 19: AWARD OF CONTRACT

19.01 As permitted by the Texas Local Government Code § 252.043, OWNER reserves the right to reject any or all Bids, including without limitation, nonconforming, nonresponsive, unbalanced, or conditional Bids. OWNER further reserves the right to reject the Bid of any Bidder whom it finds, after reasonable inquiry and evaluation, to be non-responsible.

OWNER may reject the Bid of any Bidder if OWNER believes that it would not be in the best interest of the Project to make an award to that Bidder. OWNER reserves the right to waive minor technicalities and make an award to best serve the interest of the OWNER.

19.02 More than one Bid for the same Work from an individual or entity under the same or different names will not be considered. Reasonable grounds for believing that any Bidder has an interest in more than one Bid for the Work may be cause for disqualification of that

Bidder and the rejection of all Bids in which that Bidder has an interest.

19.03 In evaluating Bids, OWNER will consider whether or not the Bids comply with the prescribed requirements, and such alternates, unit prices and other data, as may be requested in the Bid Form or prior to the Notice of Award.

19.04 In evaluating Bidders, OWNER will consider the qualifications of Bidders and may consider the qualifications and experience of Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities proposed for those portions of the Work for which the identity of Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities must be submitted as provided in Section 00400

Statement of Bidder’s Experience.

19.05 OWNER may conduct such investigations as OWNER deems necessary to establish the responsibility, qualifications, and financial ability of Bidders, proposed Subcontractors, Suppliers, individuals, or entities to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract

Documents.

19.06 If the Contract is to be awarded, OWNER will award the Contract to the lowest responsible

Bidder.

19.07 No Contract will be awarded or binding upon OWNER until it has been signed by its Mayor

(or by the Mayor Pro Tem or other Council members stated in the City Charter) after having been duly authorized to do so by the City Council of the City of Georgetown.

19.08. Chapter 176 of the Texas Local Government Code requires a person or agent of a person who contracts or seeks to contract for the sale or purchase of property, goods, or services with a local governmental entity to submit a Conflict of Interest Questionnaire to the appropriate records administrator of the City not later than the seventh business day after the date the person begins contract discussions or negotiations with the local governmental entity, or submits to the local governmental entity an application, response to a request for proposals or Bids, correspondence, or another writing related to a potential agreement with the local governmental entity. For purposes of this Bid, Bidder may submit the completed form with the Bid. Each Bidder is responsible for verifying it is using the most current form available from www.ethics.state.tx.us. This legislation is subject to change, and each vendor should consult their own attorney regarding the current law. This statement is provided for information purposes only, and submission of a completed Conflict of Interest

Questionnaire is not a required element of the Bid.

19.09 Section 2252.908 of the Texas Government Code states that a governmental entity or state agency may not enter into certain contracts with a business entity unless the business entity submits a disclosure of interested parties to the governmental entity or state agency at the time the business entity submits the signed contract to the governmental entity or state agency. The law applies only to a contract of a governmental entity or state agency that either (1) requires an action or vote by the governing body of the entity or agency before the contract may be signed or (2) has a value of at least $1 million.

All contractors entering into a contract that is approved by City Council must complete a

Form 1295.

A business entity must enter the required information on Form 1295 online at https://www.ethics.state.tx.us/filinginfo/1295/ and print a copy of the completed form, which will include a certification of filing that will contain a unique certification number.

An authorized agent of the business entity must sign the printed copy of the form and have the form notarized. The completed Form 1295 with the certification of filing must be submitted to the City.

ARTICLE 20: CONTRACT SECURITY AND INSURANCE

20.01 Article 5 of the General Conditions, as may be modified by the Supplementary Conditions, sets forth OWNER’S requirements as to performance and payment Bonds and insurance.

When the Successful Bidder delivers the executed Agreement to OWNER, it must be accompanied by such Bonds.

20.02 The CONTRACTOR shall not commence Work until he has furnished certification of all insurance required and such has been approved by the City of Georgetown, nor shall the

CONTRACTOR allow any subcontractor to commence Work until proof of all similar insurance that is required of the Subcontractor has been furnished and approved. The

OWNER must be an additional insured on the policies and the policies must provide coverage to OWNER for work under this Contract. A certificate of insurance that contains the following language, or similar language, WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED as evidence that

OWNER is an additional insured and covered under the policies: “ISSUED AS A MATTER

OF INFORMATION ONLY AND CONFERS NO RIGHTS UPON THE CERTIFICATE

HOLDER. THIS CERTIFICATE DOES NOT AMEND, EXTEND, OR ALTER THE

COVERAGE AFFORDED BY THE POLICIES BELOW.” The Certificate of Liability

Insurance form included in the Bid Documents must be used by the CONTRACTOR’s

Insurer, and CONTRACTOR’s Insurer must furnish a full and complete copy of the underlying insurance policy to the OWNER upon OWNER’s request to establish proof of insurance.

20.03 If the Bidder’s insurance company is authorized, pursuant to its agreement with Bidder, to arrange for the replacement of a loss, rather than by making a cash payment directly to the

City of Georgetown, the insurance company must furnish or have furnished by Bidder, a performance bond in accordance with Chapter 2253.021(b), Texas Government Code, and a payment bond in accordance with Chapter 2253.021(c), Texas Government Code.
