Offices of the City Clerk prior to the closing date and time.
11. IRREVOCABILITY: Following the time of closing, all bids will become irrevocable offers to the City and will
remain as such until 90 days from date of submission. By submission of a bid, the vendor agrees to
enter into a contract. In addition all quoted prices will be firm and valid up to 90 days from date of submission
The City may, in its sole discretion, release any bid and return any bonds if applicable prior to the 90 days.

13. SIGNATURES OF VENDORS: Each vendor shall sign their bid, using their legal signature and
giving their full business address. The person signing the bid must be an officer of the company or
partnership. Bids by partnerships shall be signed with the partnership name by one of the members of the
partnership or by an authorized representative, followed by the signature and designation of the President,
Secretary, or other persons authorized to bind it in the matter. The names of all persons signing should also
be printed below the signature. A bid by a person who affixes to their signature the word, "President",
"Secretary", "Agent" or other designation without disclosing their principal, may be held to be a bid of the
individual signing. When requested by the City, satisfactory evidence of the authority of the officer signing in
behalf of the corporation shall be furnished. Bids submitted electronically are to be typed in lieu of written
signature (see the cover letter).
14. OPEN RECORDS ACT: Notwithstanding any language contained in a bid to the contrary, all bids submitted
to the City become the property of the City. Any information considered proprietary should be marked by the
vendor and as such and will be kept confidential to the extent provided by law.
15. SALES TAX: Vendors shall not include federal, state, or local excise, sales or use taxes in prices offered, as
the City is exempt from payment of such taxes.
16. MISTAKES IN BIDDING INSTRUCTIONS: If the City makes a mistake in drafting the bidding instructions
or any other contract documents, the City reserves the right to reject any or all bids, or to require that vendors
submit an alternate bid with adjustments made to correct the error(s). Such errors will be set forth in an
addendum. If the vendor has already been selected and has started performing work under the contract,
and the City then discovers a mistake in the contract documents for which the City is responsible, the City may
opt to reform the contract. If the mistake causes the vendor to receive compensation for materials not used in
the work or for labor that would not be required3 for the work, the contract price shall be decreased
proportionally. If the mistake causes the vendor to fail to bid on work which must be performed in order to
properly complete the contract, the City may increase the contract price to equal the proportionate increase in
the cost of required materials and labor caused to the vendor. In the alternative, the City may solicit bids for
such additional work, or the City may reassign such additional work to another vendor, as the City deems
appropriate. Nothing in this provision shall apply to mistakes made by the vendor in completing the bid form
or in performing the contract.
17. BID RESULTS: Vendors desiring to know bid results must enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope with
their bid. A bid summary sheet will be mailed after the bid opening. No bid results will be given over
the telephone. Vendors attending the bid opening will receive a copy of the results after the opening of the
bids.
18. ACCEPTANCE OF BID: It is expressly understood and agreed that the City reserves the right to reject any
or all bids, to waive formalities, and accept the bid which appears to be in the City’s best interest.
19. APPEAL OF AWARD: Solicitations will be awarded based on multiple criteria, price being just one
of the conditions. Vendors can review the solicitation’s special terms and conditions for information on
evaluation criteria. Vendors may appeal the award decision by submitting, in writing, to the City of Northglenn,
a request for reconsideration within 7 calendar days after the posting of the Notice of Intent to Award, provided
that the appeal is sought by the vendor prior to the City finalizing a contract with the selected vendor. Vendors
who were deemed non- responsive are ineligible to participate in the appeal process.
20. DEFENSE OF SUITS: In case any action at law or suit in equity is brought against the City, any officer,
employee, or agent thereof, for or on account of the failure, omission, or neglect of the vendor to do and
perform any of the covenants, acts, matters, or things by this contract undertaken to be done or performed,
or for the injury or damage caused by the negligence of the vendor or their subcontractors or their or their
agents, or in connection with any claim or claims based on the lawful demands of subcontractors, workmen,
material, men or suppliers or machinery and parts thereof, equipment, power tools and supplies
incurred in the fulfillment of the contract, the vendor shall indemnify and save harmless the City, officers,
employees, and agents of the City, of and from all losses, damages, costs (including attorney's fees),
expenses, judgments, or decrees whatever arising out of such action of suit that may be brought as aforesaid.
21. CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS: If the City decides to proceed and to negotiate a contract, the City intends
to provide written notification to the vendor whose bid is deemed by the City to be in the best interests of the
City and the City will attempt to negotiate a contract with the selected vendor(s) on terms and conditions
stated in this IFB or in the successful vendor’s bid, but shall also include terms and conditions later negotiated.
If the City and the successful vendor are unable to execute a contract and the vendor has been notified
that it is the successful vendor then the City may cease all discussions with the (first) successful vendor
without any further obligation to that vendor and select another (second) vendor as the successful vendor.
If the (second) vendor is rejected, as per the terms above, then the City, without any further obligation to that
vendor, may select another (third) vendor as the successful vendor and so on, or the City reserves the right
to reject all bids and re-bid.
