The District reserves the right to use the information and any ideas presented in any submission

in response to this RFB request, whether or not the submission is accepted. Submitted bids

specifically identifying the page number, line or other appropriate designation, that information

which it deems to constitute a trade secret and explain in detail why such information is a trade

prevailing practices in the locality where the work is performed. Any Federal or State

determination of a violation of any Public Works law or regulation, or Labor Law, or any OSHA

responsibly and rejection of bid.

7. If applicable the Contractor must provide a copy of payroll records, when requested,

showing prevailing wages paid to each employee for any School District project.

8. The District neither makes nor assumes any contractual obligation by issuing this RFB

aspect of the bidder’s submission satisfactorily meets the criteria established in this RFB request,

School District will be used as the basis for the cost and terms of a contract between the District

manner whatsoever by the submission of a response.
