2. Contractor certifies by submission of this proposal that neither contractor nor any of its

and
3. Contractor has not, nor has any successor to, nor an affiliate of, Contractor, engaged in

a. For purposes of this Certification, "Iran" means the government of Iran and any agency
or instrumentality of Iran, or as otherwise defined at Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-5, as
amended from time -to -time.
b. As provided by Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-8, as amended from time -to -time, a Contractor
is engaged in investment activities in Iran if either:
i. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, provides goods or services of twenty
million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in value in the energy sector of Iran;
or
ii. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, is a financial institution that extends

and attached as part of this bid/quote; and
5. Contractor shall require his/her/its subcontractors performing work under this public

6. Persons, firms, 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 contract or employment, or
any matter directly or indirectly related to contracting or employment because of race, sex, religion,
color, national origin, ancestry, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, or due to
age 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 will consider the Contractor's good faith efforts to obtain
participation by those subcontractors 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.
Contractors seeking the award of a City contract cannot be required to award a subcontract to an
MWBE; however, they may not unlawfully discriminate against said MBE/WBE. On goal -eligible
contracts, Contractors are required to either meet both MBE and WBE utilization goals or
demonstrate that the Contractor has made good faith efforts to obtain participation from MBE and
WBE subcontractors. A finding of noncompliance or a discriminatory practice shall prohibit that
Contractor 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 to which
the discriminatory practice or noncompliance pertains.
7. The undersigned Contractor agrees that the following nondiscrimination commitment shall
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
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.

CONTRACTOR'S BID FOR PUBLIC WORK
RESPONSIBLE BIDDER CHECKLIST
Project Name Cleveland Rd & Ameritech Dr Intersection Improvements
Project No. 122-049
For Bids Due August 8, 2023
Contractor Name: Milestone Contractors North, Inc.
The City seeks to enhance its ability to identify responsive and responsible bidders on all City public works
projects by institution of comprehensive submission requirements in compliance with State law. Quality
workmanship, efficient operation, safety, and timely completion of projects requires that all bidders meet
certain minimum requirements to be responsive and responsible bidders.
THIS FORM MUST BE SUBMITTED WITH YOUR BID.
INSTRUCTIONS:
If you are a pre -qualified bidder, complete Section I only.
If you are not a pre -qualified bidder, complete Section II only.
Section II acts as an application for pre -qualification. Submission of Section II will allow the bidder to be
considered for pre -qualification for bids with the City of South Bend Department of Public Works. Pre -
qualified bidders will then be exempt from a portion of the submission requirements outlined in Section 6-
63 of The Responsible Bidding Ordinance No. 10594-18 (hereinafter, "Responsible Bidding Ordinance")
for a period of twelve (12) months.
Thereafter, contractors who are pre -qualified must submit a complete application for continuation of "pre -
qualified" standing, on a form provided by the City ("Responsible Bidder Checklist (1) Pre -Qualified
Bidders") by December 3151 for the upcoming calendar year, or within twelve (12) months of obtaining pre -
qualified standing. If the status of any item changes within the twelve (12) months, it is the responsibility of
the contractor to notify the City. Failure by any pre -qualified contractor to submit its complete application
for continuation of "pre -qualified" standing within the time prescribed above shall result in automatic removal
of the designation, effective January 1 of the following year, or immediately following the twelve (12) months
of pre -qualified standing.
However, the "removed" contractor or subcontractor shall still be permitted to bid on City public works
projects, though the contractor must submit all required documents under 6-63 until "pre -qualified" status
is re-established.
Please Note: The City reserves the right to request supplemental information from the bidder,
additional verification of any information provided by the bidder, and may also conduct random
inquiries of the bidder's current and previous customers regardless of pre -qualified standing.
It is the sole responsibility of the potential bidder to comply with all submission requirements applicable to
the bidder in Section 6-63 of the Responsible Bidding Ordinance no later than the date of the public bid
opening.
Version 10/13/2021 General Conditions - 10
POST BID SUBMISSIONS:
Post -bid submissions must be submitted in accordance with Section 6-64 of the Responsible Bidding
Ordinance. The post -bid submission requirements are as follows:
1. All bidders shall collect, maintain, and provide upon request, a current written list that discloses the
name, address, licensing status, and type of work for any subcontractor from whom the bidder has
accepted a bid and/or intends to hire on any part of the public work project, including individuals
performing work as independent contractors.
2. Each subcontractor, whose portion of the project is estimated to be at least one -hundred fifty
thousand dollars ($150,000.00), shall be required to adhere to the requirements of Section I of the
Responsible Bidder Ordinance as though it were bidding directly to the City, except that the
subcontractor shall submit the required information (including the name, address, and type of work)
to the successful bidder prior to the commencement of work.
3. Failure of a subcontractor to submit the required information shall not disqualify the successful
bidder from performing work on the project and shall not constitute a contractual default and/or
breach by the successful bidder. However, the City may withhold all payment otherwise due for
work performed by a subcontractor, until the subcontractor submits the required information and
the City approves such information.
4. The disclosure of a subcontractor list ("Disclosed Subcontractor(s)") to the City by a bidder shall
not create any rights in the Disclosed Subcontractor(s). Thus, a bidder may substitute another
subcontractor for a Disclosed Subcontractor by giving the City, upon request, written notice of the
name, address, licensing status, and type of work of the substitute subcontractor.
5. The successful bidder and all subcontractors on a public works project are required to submit
certified payroll utilizing the federal form known as WH-347 or a similar form on a bi-weekly basis,
submitted within 10 days after the end of each bi-weekly payroll period. Certified payrolls shall
identify the job title and craft for each employee. Certified payrolls shall be submitted
electronically.
Please Note: Submissions deemed inadequate, incomplete, or untimely by the City may result in
the automatic disqualification of the bid.
The City, after review of complete and timely submissions, shall, in its sole discretion, after taking into
account all information in the submission requirements, determine whether a bidder is responsive and
responsible, and provide a Pre -Qualification Verification Letter. The City specifically reserves the right to
utilize all information provided in the contractor's submission and any information obtained by the City
through its own independent verification of the information provided by the contractor.

EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY/
AFFIRMATIVE ACTION POLICY STATEMENT
It is the policy of Milestone Contractors to afford equal opportunity for employment to all individuals regardless of
race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, housing status, or
veterans' status. The corporation is committed to this policy by our status as a federally assisted government
contractor. We are far more strongly bound to the policy by the fact that adherence to the principles involved is the
only acceptable American way of life. Therefore, it is the policy of this corporation to assure that applicants are
employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual
orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, housing status, or veterans' status. Such action shall
include: employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or
termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship, pre -
apprenticeship, and/or on-the-job training.
The successful achievement of a nondiscriminatory employment program requires a maximum of cooperation
between management and employees. In fulfilling its' part in this cooperative effort, management is obliged to lead
the way by establishing and implementing affirmative procedures and practices which will ensure our objective,
namely equitable employment opportunity for all. (Minority and female employees are encouraged to participate
in all company activities and refer applicants.)
I have designated Margaret Garner to direct the establishment of and to monitor the implementation of personnel
procedures to guide our affirmative action program. This official is charged with designing and implementing audit
and reporting systems that will keep management informed on a regular basis of the status of equal employment
opportunity and affirmative action. She can be reached at (317)616-4937.
Supervision has been made to understand that their work performance is being evaluated based on their equal
employment opportunity efforts and results, as well as other criteria. It shall be a responsibility of the supervision
to take actions to prevent harassment of employees placed through affirmative action efforts.
We shall comply with the Civic Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Federal Highway Act of 1968, the Executive Order
#11246 and #11375, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance
Act of 1974, as amended, the Indiana Civil Rights Act and other applicable Federal and State Laws and regulations
pertaining to equality of Opportunities and Affirmative Action policies. We have developed an Affirmative Action
Program for Veterans and Individuals with Disabilities.
