envelope. Multiple bid responses submitted in the same envelope/courier package (that are not in

separate envelopes properly identified) shall be rejected. The Purchasing Department assumes no

responsibility for late bid responses that occur due to the U.S. Postal Service or private courier

service.

Bid responses and signature page must be submitted on this form in ink or typewritten or the bid

will be rejected. Submit this original and (1) copy of the original with your response.

result in removal from active bidders list.

The attached specifications are being provided to potential bidders as guidelines that describe the

type and quality of equipment, supply, and/or service the City of Decatur is seeking to purchase. The

Non Appropriation of Funds: Continuation of any agreement between the City of Decatur and a

bidder beyond a fiscal year is contingent upon continued legislative appropriation of funds for the

purpose of this bid and any resulting agreement. Non availability of funds at any time shall cause

any agreement to become void and unenforceable and no liquidated damages shall accrue to the City

as a result. The City will not incur liability beyond the payment of accrued agreement payment.

Descriptive Literature: Reference to brand names and numbers is not restrictive, unless otherwise

specified. Bids on equivalent items meeting the standards of quality indicated will be considered,

providing the bid clearly describes the item offered and indicates how it differs from the referenced

brands. Descriptive literature on any supplemental information necessary for comparison purposes

shall be submitted with the bid or the Purchasing Agent may reject the bid for that item. Reference

to literature submitted with a previous bid, or on file with the Purchasing Department will not

satisfy this requirement.

responses.

of Decatur harmless from any and all causes of action or claims of damages arising out of or related

to bidder’s performance under this contract.

ordinances. Including but not limited to a current business license and remittance of sales tax owed

to the City.

A Bid Bond or a certified check in the amount of five hundred ($500.00), payable to the

City of Decatur, must accompany each bid.

The successful vendor shall provide a Performance Bond for the entire term of the

Contract in the amount of five thousand ($5,000.00) prior to award.
