was formed in Oklahoma) can sign; others can sign if they have and provide the City with (i) a corporate

VI for sample of a Certificate of Secretary)
o General Partnerships - any partner can sign to bind all partners.
o Limited Partnerships - the general partner must sign.
o Individuals - no additional authorization is required, but signatures must be witnessed and notarized.
o Sole Proprietorship - the owner can sign. Any other person can sign if s/he provides a recent Power
of Attorney, signed by the owner, authorizing him/her to bind the sole proprietorship.
o Limited Liability Company (LLC) - any manager of the LLC elected by the members of the LLC, or
any member signing as manager of the LLC. All other signers will need a Consent of Members signed

good material and workmanship and that manufacturer promptly replace any part or parts which by
