(e) The Contract shall be deemed as having been awarded when formal <br />notice of award shall have been duly served upon the intended <br />awardee (i.e., the bidder to whom the Municipality contemplates <br />awarding the contract) by some officer or agent of the Municipality <br />duly authorized to give such notice. <br />8. Filing Bids. After bids are opened and read aloud, they shall be <br />placed on file in the Manager's Office for public inspection and shall <br />remain there. <br />9. Basis of Award. Proposals shall be submitted for the Items or Units <br />as shown on the Proposal Forms all furnished and installed in strict <br />conformance with the Specifications therefor. No Proposal will be <br />considered except upon completed work fully installed in place as <br />specified. Award will be made to the most responsible bidder submitting <br />the lowest bid. The determination of the lowest responsible bidder <br />will be made by the City. <br />10. Alternates, Unit Prices and Stated Allowances. <br />(a) Attention of bidders is also invited to the fact that: (1) the <br />base bid may be decreased in accordance with any of the alternate <br />proposals as may be selected which may appear in the Proposal; <br />(2) that certain items are to be bid at unit prices which will <br />apply in the event additions to or deductions from the work re- <br />quired in the base bid (and accepted alternates) are ordered. <br />(b) Bidders are required to bid upon each and every (1) unit item, <br />and (2) fixed unit price item contained in the bid form relating <br />to the work and the lump sum items upon which the bidder is <br />offering a Proposal where the Specifications or the Proposal <br />provides for such bids. <br />11. Right to Reject Bids. The Municipality reserves the right to reject <br />any and all bids as authorized by law or to waive any informalities <br />in bidding. <br />12. Supplemental Instructions. Each bidder shall submit a complete <br />proposal on the entire work included within these Plans and Specifi- <br />cations. Proposal Forms giving the description of the work and <br />showing the expected quantity are included with the Contract Documents. <br />Bidders shall use only this Form of Proposal, and shall specify the <br />unit price where asked for, in both words and figures. Any change in <br />the official proposal form, or any additions to it, may be cause for <br />rejecting the bid. No bid will be considered which reserves a right <br />by the contractor to accept or reject a contract awarded by the City. <br />13. Unusual Conditions. The Contractor shall examine the location of <br />the work and determine for himself the nature of any unusual conditions <br />affecting the cost of the work to be performed, and shall include in <br />his bid the cost thereof, it being understood that no additional pay- <br />ment is to be made therefor. - <br />I - 12 <br />
