The document is a section of the municipal code for the city of Hollywood, Florida. It contains information about the procurement process for contracts, the procedures for filing protests, and the prevailing rate of wages and fringe benefits on city construction contracts. The document explains that proposals for contracts are received from local businesses, and if the cost of the award exceeds the city's estimate by more than five percent, the procurement process must be followed. However, this requirement does not apply to purchases made pursuant to this division. The document also mentions that professional services procured under the State of Florida Consultants Competitive Negotiations Act and cooperative bids and proposals with other governmental entities are exempt from these requirements. Regarding protests, the document states that any actual or prospective bidder who is aggrieved in connection with the pending award of a contract can file a protest within five business days after the notice of intent to award is posted. The protest must be in writing and include the name and address of the protester, as well as a factual summary and basis for the protest. A protest committee, comprised of various city officials, is responsible for reviewing and resolving the protest. If the committee determines that there was a significant violation of law or regulations, steps will be taken to correct the violation. If the protest is without merit, the Director will issue a written decision stating the reason for the decision. The document also includes information about the prevailing rate of wages and fringe benefits on city construction contracts. It states that every construction contract above a certain dollar amount must include a provision that the rate of wages and fringe benefits for laborers, mechanics, and apprentices employed by contractors or subcontractors must be not less than the prevailing rate established by the United States Department of Labor. The Director has the authority to determine the prevailing rate. Contractors and subcontractors are required to pay the prevailing rate and submit certified payroll sheets to the city on a regular basis. These sheets should include information about employees' names, addresses, classifications, rates of pay, hours worked, deductions, and actual wages paid. The records must be maintained for at least one year following the completion of the work. Overall, the document provides guidelines and procedures for the procurement process, protests related to contract awards, and the prevailing rate of wages and fringe benefits on city construction contracts in the city of Hollywood, Florida.
