Bill 25-19 would require a 10 percent price preference for a local business bidding on a contract or submitting a proposal under a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a contract awarded by the County.
The legislation seeks to increase the number of local businesses that are awarded County contracts. If enacted, during the seal bid process, the submitted bid of a local business would have its bid price reduce by a factor of 10 percent for the purposes of evaluation and award only.
