Bid security shall serve as evidence of good faith and as a guarantee that if awarded the <br />Contract the Bidder will execute the Contract and provide bonds as required by the Bid. <br />Should the successful Bidder fail to enter into the Contract, furnish a satisfactory <br />performance and payment bond, and furnish evidence of insurance within 14 calendar <br />days after the award date, the certified check, cashier’s check or bid bond shall be <br />forfeited as liquidated damages. <br />1.9 LIST OF SUBCONTRACTORS <br />A.
