The successful bidder will be required to furnish the certificates of insurance and copies of insurance policies

providing the coverages specified in the bid documents.

and made a part of the terms and conditions of these specifications. The successful bidder must submit

the bid and the Lessee’s insurance is deemed not acceptable, then the deposit shall be forfeited. Please
