A Post Office Box or a facility that receives mail, or a non-permanent structure such as a construction trailer, storage shed, or other non -permanent structure shall not be used for the purpose of establishing said physical address. In addition to the foregoing, a vendor shall not be considered a "local business" unless it contributes to the economic development and well-being of Collier County in a verifiable and measurable way. This may include, but not be limited to, the retention and expansion of employment opportunities, support and increase to the County's tax base, and residency of employees and principals of the business within Collier County. Vendors shall affirm in writing their compliance with the forego ing at the time of submitting their bid or proposal to be eligible for consideration as a "local business" under this section. A vendor who misrepresents the Local Preference status of its firm in a proposal or bid submitted to the County will lose the pri vilege to claim Local Preference status for a period of up to one year. 13.3 Under this solicitation, bidders desiring to receive local preference will be invited and required to affirmatively state and provide documentation as set forth in the solicitation in support of their status as a local business. Any bidder who fails to submit sufficient documentation with their bid offer shall not be granted local preference consideration for the purposes of that specific contract award. Except where federal or state law, or any other funding source, mandates to the contrar y, Collier County and its agencies and instrumentalities, will give preference to local businesses in the following manner. 13.4 Competitive bid (local price match option). Each formal competitive bid solicitation shall clearly identify how the price order of the bids received will be evaluated and determined. W hen a qualified and responsive, non-local business submits the lo we st price bid, and the bid submitted by one or more qualified and responsive local businesses is within ten percent of the price submitted by the non-local business, then the local business with the apparent lowest bid offer (i.e., the lowest local bidder) shall have the opportunity to submit an offer to match the price(s), less one (1) dollar, offered b y the overall lo west, qualified and responsive bidder. In such instances, staff shall first verify if the lowest non- local bidder and the lo we st local bidder are in fact qualified and responsive bidders. Next, the Procurement Services Division shall determine if the lo we st local bidder meets the requirements of Fla. Stat. Sec.287.087 (Preferences to businesses with drug-free workplace programs). If the lowest local bidder meets the requirements of Fla. Stat. Sec. 287.087, the Procurement Services Division shall invite the lowest local bidder to submit a matching offer, less one (1) dollar, within five (5) business da ys thereafter. If the lo west local bidder submits an offer that full y matches the lo west bid, less one (1) dollar, fr o m the lo west non-local bidder tendered previousl y, then award shall be made to the local bidder. If the lo west local bidder declines or is unable to match the lowe st non-local bid price(s), then award will be made to the lowest overall qualified and responsive bidder. If the lowest local bidder does not meet the requirement of Fla. Stat. Sec 287.087, and the lowest non-local bidder does, award will be made to the bidder that meets the requirements of the reference state law. 13.5 Bidder must complete and submit with their bid response the Affidavit for Claiming Status as a Local Business which is included as part of this solicitation. Failure on the part of a Bidder to submit this Affidavit with their bid response will preclude said Bidder from being considered for local preference on this solicitation. 13.6 A Bidder who misrepresents the Local Preference status of its firm in a bid submitted to the County will lose the privilege to claim Local Preference status for a period of up to one (1) year. 13.7 The County may, as it deems necessary, conduct discussions with responsible bidders determined to be in contention for being selected for award for the purpose of clarification to assure full understanding of, and responsiveness to solicitation requirements. 14.0 IMMIGRATION AFFIDAVIT CERTIFICATION 14.1 Statutes and executive orders require employers to abide by the immigration laws of the United States and to employ only individuals who are eligible to work in the United States. The Employment Eligibility Verification System (E -Verify) operated by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA), provides an Internet-based means of verifying employment eligibility of workers in the United States; it is not a substitute for any other employment eligibility verification requirements. The program will be used for Collier County formal Invitations to Bid (ITB) and Request for Proposals (RFP) including professional services and construction services. 14.1.1Exceptions to the program: (1) Commodity based procurement where no services are provided.
