in accordance with the following instructions:
The Proposal shall be fully executed and submitted in a sealed envelope marked and addressed as directed in the

The cost of all insurance shall be included in the Contractor's bid.
If the Proposal is made by an individual, it shall be signed and his or her full name and address shall be given; if it is

own name, and the name and address of each member of such co-partnership shall be given; if made by a corporation,
the name of the corporation shall be signed by its duly authorized officers and attested by the corporate seal.
Bidders are warned against making erasures or alterations of any kind on their Proposal. Proposals that contain
omissions, erasures, alterations, conditions or additions not called for may be rejected.
Bidders are solely responsible for ensuring that their Bids are received in proper time, and Bidders assume all risks
arising out of their chosen means of delivery. Any Bid received after the Bid submission deadline shall be returned
unopened. Bidders are invited to be present for Bid opening. Accepted Bids shall become the property of the City.
AMENDED & ALTERED BIDS: Unauthorized conditions, limitations or provisions attached to a Bid may cause
the Bid to be deemed incomplete and non-responsive.
WITHDRAWAL OF BID: A Bid may be withdrawn without prejudice upon written request by the Bidder filed with
the City Clerk before the Bid submission deadline.
BIDDER'S SECURITY: Each Bid shall be accompanied by cash, a certified or cashier's check payable to the City,
or a satisfactory Bid Bond in favor of the City executed by the Bidder as principal and an admitted surety insurer as
Surety, in an amount not less than ten percent (10%) of the amount set forth in the Bid. The cash, check or Bid Bond
shall be given as a guarantee that, if selected, the Bidder will execute the Contract in conformity with the Contract
Documents, and will provide the evidence of insurance and furnish the specified Bonds, within ten (10) working days
after the date of delivery of the Contract Documents to the Bidder. In case of the Bidder's refusal or failure to do so,
the City may award the Contract to the next lowest responsible bidder, and the cash, check, or Bond (as applicable)
of the lowest Bidder shall be forfeited to the City to the extent permitted by law. No Bid Bond will be accepted unless
it conforms substantially to the form provided in these Contract Documents.
QUANTITIES APPROXIMATE: Any quantities shown in the Bid form or elsewhere herein shall be considered as
approximations listed to serve as a general indication of the amount of Work or materials to be performed or furnished,
and as basis for the Bid comparison. The City does not guarantee that the actual amounts required will correspond
with those shown. As deemed necessary or convenient, the City may increase or decrease the amount of any item or
portion of Work or material to be performed or furnished or omit any such item or portion, in accordance with the
Contract Documents.
ADDENDA: The City and/or City Engineer may, from time to time, issue Addenda to the Contract Documents.
Bidders are responsible for ensuring that they have received any and all Addenda. Each Bidder is responsible for
verifying that it has received all Addenda issued, if any. Bidders must acknowledge receipt of all Addenda, if any, in
their bids. Failure to acknowledge receipt of all Addenda may cause a Bid to be deemed incomplete and non-
responsive.
COMPETENCY OF BIDDERS: In evaluating Bidder responsibility, consideration will be given not only to the
financial standing, but also to the general competency of the Bidder for the performance of the Project. Each Bidder
shall set forth in the designated area of the Bid form a statement of its experience. No Contract will be executed with
a Bidder that is not licensed and registered with the DIR in accordance with State law, and with any applicable specific
ATPL-5223(029) September 2026 4

licensing requirements specified in these Contract Documents. These licensing and registration requirements for
Contractors shall also apply to all Subcontractors.
BIDDER'S EXAMINATION OF SITE AND CONTRACT DOCUMENTS: Each Bidder must carefully examine
the Project site and the entirety of the Contract Documents. Upon submission of a Bid, it will be conclusively presumed
that the Bidder has thoroughly investigated the Work and is satisfied as to the conditions to be encountered and the
character, quality, and quantities of Work to be performed and materials to be furnished. Upon Bid submission, it also
shall be conclusively presumed that the Bidder is familiar with and agrees to the requirements of the Contract
Documents, including all Addenda. No information derived from an inspection of records or investigation will in any
way relieve the Contractor from its obligations under the Contract Documents nor entitle the Contractor to any
additional compensation. The Contractor shall not make any claim against the City based upon ignorance or
misunderstanding of any condition of the Project site or of the requirements set forth in the Contract Documents. No
claim for additional compensation will be allowed which is based on a lack of knowledge of the above items. Bidders
assume all risks in connection with performance of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, regardless
of actual conditions encountered, and waive and release the City with respect to any and all claims and liabilities in
connection therewith, to the extent permitted by law.
DISQUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS: No Person shall be allowed to make, file or be interested in more than one
Bid for the Project, unless alternate Bids are specifically called for. A Person that has submitted a sub-bid to a Bidder,
or that has quoted prices of materials to a Bidder, is not thereby disqualified from submitting a sub-proposal or quoting
prices to other Bidders or from making a prime Bid. If there is a reason to believe that collusion exists among the
Bidders, all affected Bids will be rejected.
RETURN OF BID SECURITY: The successful Bidder's Bid security shall be held until the Contract is executed.
Bid security shall be returned to the unsuccessful Bidders within a reasonable time, which in any case shall not exceed
sixty (60) Days after the successful Bidder has signed the Contract.
AWARD OF CONTRACT: The City reserves the right to reject any or all Bids or any parts thereof or to waive any
irregularities or informalities in any Bid or in the bidding. The Contract award, if made, will be to the lowest
responsible, responsive Bidder, determined on the basis of the Grand Total (Total Base Bid plus all Bid Additives) as
stated in the Bid Proposal, and is anticipated to occur within ninety (90) Days after the Bid opening. The Contract
award may be made after that period if the selected Bidder has not given the City written notice of the withdrawal of
its Bid. If the City awards fewer than all Bid Additives, Bid Additives will be added to the Base Bid in numerical
order beginning with Bid Additive No. 1, to the extent of available funds; a higher-numbered Bid Additive will not
be awarded unless every lower-numbered Bid Additive is also awarded.
GENERAL CONTRACTOR SELF PERFORMANCE: The General Contractor shall perform, with its own
organization, contract work amounting to at least thirty percent (30%).
LISTING SUBCONTRACTORS: Each Bidder shall submit a list of subcontractors proposed on the Project. (Public
Contract Code Section 4100, et seq.)
EXECUTION OF CONTRACT: The selected Bidder shall execute the Contract in the form included in these
Contract Documents within fifteen (15) Days from the date of delivery of the Contract Documents to the Bidder.
Additionally, the selected Bidder shall also secure all insurance and Bonds as herein specified, and provide copies to
the City, within fifteen (15) Days from the date of delivery of the Contract Documents to the Bidder. Failure or refusal
to execute the Contract or to conform to any of the stipulated requirements shall be just cause for the annulment of the
award and forfeiture of the Bidder's security. In such event, the City may declare the Bidder's security forfeited to the
extent permitted by law, and the City may award the Contract to the next lowest responsible bidder.
SIGNATURES: The Bidder shall execute all documents requiring signatures and shall cause to notarize all
documents that indicate such a requirement. Bids submitted as joint ventures must so state and be signed by each joint
venture. The Bidder shall provide evidence satisfactory to the City, such as an authenticated resolution of its board of
directors, a certified copy of a certificate of partnership acknowledging the signer to be a general partner, or a power
of attorney, indicating the capacity of the person(s) signing the Bid to bind the Bidder to the Bid and any Contract
