To assess bidder responsibility, the City reserves the right to request <br />documentation as needed from the Bidder and third parties concerning the Bidder’s <br />compliance with the mandatory bidder responsibility criteria. <br />If the City determines the Bidder does not meet the mandatory bidder responsibility <br />criteria in RCW 39.04.350(1) and is therefore not a responsible Bidder, the City shall <br />notify the Bidder in writing, with the reasons for its determination. If the Bidder disagrees <br />with this determination, it may appeal the determination within two business days of the <br />City’s determination by presenting its appeal and any additional information to the City. <br />The City will consider the appeal and any additional information before issuing its final <br />determination. If the final determination affirms that the Bidder is not responsible, the <br />City will not execute a contract with any other Bidder until at least two business days <br />after the Bidder determined to be not responsible has received the City’s final <br />determination. <br />A Bidder will be deemed not responsible if the Bidder does not meet supplemental <br />responsibility criteria, all as set forth herein and in SECTION 00 22 13, SUPPLEMENTAL <br />INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS. <br /> <br />1-02.15 Pre-Award Information <br />Before awarding any contract, the City may require one or more of these items or actions <br />of the apparent lowest responsible Bidder: <br />1.
