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

documentation of enrollment and participation in the E-Verify Program is included and attached as part of

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

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

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
Version 1/3/2025 Contractor's Bid for Public Works - 5
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.

This document has important legal
consequences. Consultation with
an attorney is encouraged with
respect to its completion or
modification.
Any singular reference to
Contractor, Surety, Owner or
other party shall be considered
plural where applicable.
The Contractor and Surety are bound to the Owner in the amount set forth above, for the payment of which the
Contractor and Surety bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and
severally, as provided herein. The conditions of this Bond are such that if the Owner accepts the bid of the Contractor
within the time specified in the bid documents, or within such time period as may be agreed to by the Owner and
Contractor, and the Contractor either (1) enters into a contract with the Owner in accordance with the terms of such
bid, and gives such bond or bonds as may be specified in the bidding or Contract Documents, with a surety admitted
in the jurisdiction of the Project and otherwise acceptable to the Owner, for the faithful performance of such Contract
and for the prompt payment of labor and material furnished in the prosecution thereof; or (2) pays to the Owner the
difference, not to exceed the amount of this Bond, between the amount specified in said bid and such larger amount
for which the Owner may in good faith contract with another party to perform the work covered by said bid, then this
obligation shall be null and void, otherwise to remain in full force and effect. The Surety hereby waives any notice of
an agreement between the Owner and Contractor to extend the time in which the Owner may accept the bid. Waiver of
notice by the Surety shall not apply to any extension exceeding sixty (60) days in the aggregate beyond the time for
acceptance of bids specified in the bid documents, and the Owner and Contractor shall obtain the Surety's consent for
an extension beyond sixty (60) days.
If this Bond is issued in connection with a subcontractor's bid to a Contractor, the term Contractor in this Bond shall
be deemed to be Subcontractor and the term Owner shall be deemed to be Contractor.
When this Bond has been furnished to comply with a statutory or other legal requirement in the location of the Project,
any provision in this Bond conflicting with said statutory or legal requirement shall be deemed deleted herefrom and
provisions conforming to such statutory or other legal requirement shall be deemed incorporated herein. When so
furnished, the intent is that this Bond shall be construed as a statutory bond and not as a common law bond. %% t� ATep�'�•,
