time-to-time.
b. As provided by Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-8, as amended from time-to-time, a Contractor is

i. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, provides goods or services of twenty million

and attached as part of this bid/quote; and
5. Contractor shall require his/her/its subcontractors performing work under this public
contract to certify that the subcontractors do not knowingly employ or contract with an
unauthorized alien, nor retain any employee or contract with a person that the subcontractor

6. Persons, partnerships, corporations, associations, or joint venturers awarded a contract by
the City of South Bend through its agencies, boards, or commissions shall not discriminate against
any employee or applicant for employment in the performance of a City contract with respect to
hire, tenure, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, or any matter directly or indirectly
related to employment because of race, sex, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, age, gender
expression, gender identity, sexual orientation or disability that does not affect that person's ability
to perform the work.
In awarding contracts for the purchase of work, labor, services, supplies, equipment, materials, or
any combination of the foregoing including, but not limited to, public works contracts awarded
under public bidding laws or other contracts in which public bids are not required by law, the City,
its agencies, boards, or commissions may consider the Contractor’s good faith efforts to obtain
participation by those Contractors certified by the State of Indiana as a Minority Business
(“MBE”) or as a Women’s Business Enterprise (“WBE”) as a factor in determining the lowest,
responsible, responsive bidder.
In no event shall persons or entities seeking the award of a City contract be required to award a
subcontract to an MBE/WBE; however, it may not unlawfully discriminate against said
WBE/MBE. A finding of a discriminatory practice by the City’s MBE/WBE Utilization Board
shall prohibit that person or entity from being awarded a City contract for a period of one (1) year
from the date of such determination, and such determination may also be grounds for terminating
the contact for which the discriminatory practice or noncompliance pertains.

be made a part of any contract which it may henceforth enter into with the City of South Bend,
Indiana or any of its agencies, boards or commissions.
Contractor agrees not to discriminate against or intimidate any employee or applicant for
employment in the performance of this contract with privileges of employment, or any matter
directly or indirectly related to employment, because of race, religion, color, sex, gender
expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, handicap, national origin or ancestry. Breach of
this provision may be regarded as material breach of contract.
I, the undersigned bidder or agent as contractor on a public works project, understand my statutory
obligations to the use of steel products or foundry products made in the United States (I.C. 5-16-
8-1). I hereby certify that I and all subcontractors employed by me for this project will use steel
products or foundry products made in the United States on this project if awarded. I understand I
Version 4/2/2019 Page - 15 Public Works Quote
have an affirmative duty to notify the City in my bid that my proposal does not include the use of
steel products or foundry products made in the United States. I understand it is my sole obligation
and responsibility to provide a justification to the City, subject to review and approval, why the
cost of United States made steel or foundry products is unreasonable. Prior to award and upon
submission of bid which does not use steel products or foundry products made in the United States,
the City, through its director of public works, shall make a determination if the price of United
States made steel or foundry is unreasonable. I understand that violations hereunder may result in
forfeiture of contractual payments.

I hereby affirm under the penalties of perjury that the facts and information contained in the foregoing bid for public
works are true and correct.
