INFORMATION FOR BIDDERS <br /> The Owner will make such investigations as deemed necessary to determine the ability of <br /> the Bidder to perform the work, and the Bidder shall furnish to the Owner all such information <br /> and data for this purpose as the Owner may request. The Owner reserves the right to reject any <br /> bid if the evidence submitted by, or investigation of, such Bidder fails to satisfy the Owner that <br /> such Bidder is properly qualified to carry out the obligations of the Contract and to complete the <br /> work contemplated therein. Conditional bids will not be accepted. <br /> Each bid must be accompanied with a proposal guaranty a bid bond on a form approved <br /> by the City, executed by a surety company satisfactory to the City, in an amount not less than ten <br /> (10) percent of the bid. Such proposal guarantees, of the three lowest bidders, may be retained <br /> by the City for a period of 45 days after the date of the bid opening. Checks or bid bonds from <br /> other than the three lowest bidders will be returned by the City within seven (7) days after the <br /> date of the bid opening. <br /> Simultaneously with the delivery of the executed Contract, the Contractor shall furnish a <br /> surety bond or bonds as security for faithful performance of this Contract and for the payment of <br /> all persons performing labor on the project under this Contract and furnishing materials in <br /> connection with this Contract, and other items required by the Conditions and Specifications <br /> governing the work. The surety on such bond or bonds shall be a duly authorized surety <br /> company satisfactory to the Owner. Attorneys-in-fact who sign bid bonds or contract bonds <br /> must file with each bond a certified and effectively dated copy of their Power of Attorney. <br /> The successful Bidder, upon Bidder's failure or refusal to execute and deliver the <br /> Contract and bonds required within (10) consecutive calendar days from and including the date <br /> the Bidder has received notice of the acceptance of their bid, shall forfeit to the Owner, as <br /> liquidation of damages done for such failure or refusal, the security deposited with their bid. <br /> Notice of the Owner's intent shall either be hand delivered by the Owner to the Bidder's address, <br /> as given on the Contract Documents, or mailed to such address, first class, United States mail, <br /> return receipt requested. Delivery or mailing of said notice to said address shall constitute the <br /> notice herein required without the requirement of an acknowledgment of receipt from the Bidder. <br /> Each Bidder must inform himself fully of the conditions and specifications relating to the <br /> construction of the project and the employment of labor thereon. Failure to do so will not relieve <br /> a successful Bidder of their obligation to furnish all material and labor necessary to carry out the <br /> provisions of the Contract. Insofar as possible, the Contractor, in carrying out their work, must <br /> employ such methods or means as will not cause any interruption of or interference with the <br /> work of any other Contractor. <br /> The quantities appearing in the bid proposal are approximate and are prepared for the <br /> comparison of bids. Payment to the Contractor will be made only for the actual quantities of <br /> work performed and accepted or materials furnished according to the contract. The proposed <br /> quantities of work to be done and materials to be furnished may each be increased, decreased, or <br /> omitted as hereinafter provided. <br /> 7 <br />
