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.

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

unauthorized alien, nor retain any employee or contract with a person that the subcontractor
subsequently learns is an unauthorized alien, and that the subcontractor has enrolled in and is
Participating in the E-Verify Program. The Contractor agrees to maintain this certification
throughout the term of the contract with the City of South Bend, and understands that the City
may terminate the contract for default if the Contractor fails to cure a breach of this provision no

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 employment, or any matter
directly or indirectly related to employment because of race, sex, religion, color, national origin,

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

its agencies, boards, or commissions will consider the Contractor's good faith efforts to obtain

Contractors seeking the award of a City contract cannot be required to award a subcontract to a
MWBE; however, they may not unlawfully discriminate against said MBE/WBE. 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.

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.

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.

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
