Bidders for any Construction Project whose bid is valued at greater than $175,000 in total, and subcontractors of any tier that intend to perform work valued at over $50,000.00 shall be
determined to be a “Responsible Bidder” in accordance with the City’s Purchasing and Contracts ordinance prior to award, and must submit a Bidder Information Questionnaire with
their bid. Details on the entirety of this process are contained in Division D of the contract,and required forms are included in the Appendix to the contract. Should the prime bidder
identify any trades / subcontracts where they have been unable to secure a potentially responsible bidder at the time of bid submission, this should be clearly noted on the bid form,

A bid bond or certified check made payable to the City of Monroe in the amount of not less than five percent (5%) of the bid must be posted by each bidder with his / her bid.
