Proposals become public records upon submission except for elements clearly marked as trade secrets or confidential information.

Proposers must submit living wage certifications, Oaks Initiative disclosures, Levine Act disclosures, non-collusion declarations, and debarment certifications. Successful proposers physically located in or conducting business within Santa Monica must obtain a City business license. No mandatory pre-proposal job walk is required. The question submission deadline is June 22, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. PST. Contract term and renewal options are not specified.
