Pre - qualified bidders will then be exempt from a portion of the submission requirements outlined in Section 6- 71 of The Responsible Bidding Ordinance No. 10975-23 (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") 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 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 6-71 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.

Each subcontractor, whose portion of the project is estimated to be at least two -hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000.00), 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.

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.
