The City will verify that the Bidder meets the mandatory bidder responsibility criteria in RCW 39.04.350(1). To assess bidder responsibility, the City reserves the right to request documentation as needed from the Bidder and third parties concerning the Bidder's compliance with the mandatory bidder responsibility criteria. If the City determines the Bidder does not meet the mandatory bidder responsibility criteria in RCW 39.04.350(1) and is therefore not a responsible Bidder, the City shall notify the Bidder in writing, with the reasons for its determination. If the Bidder disagrees with this determination, it may appeal the determination within two business days of the City's determination by presenting its appeal and any additional information to the City. The City will consider the appeal and any additional information before issuing its final determination. If the final determination affirms that the Bidder is not responsible, the City will not execute a contract with any other Bidder until at least two business days after the Bidder determined to be not responsible has received the City's final determination. If the Contract Documents contain supplemental responsibility criteria, then a Bidder will be deemed not responsible if the Bidder does not meet those criteria: 1-02.15 Pre-Award Information Revise 1-02.15 to read as follows: Before awarding any contract, the City may require one or more of these items or actions of the apparent lowest responsible Bidder: 1.
