Type of Bid - Amount
Sealed bids must be mailed or delivered to the undersigned and must be
received prior to the time established above for the opening of bids. Each bid must
be unconditional. A good faith deposit in the amount of $17,400 must be submitted
with each bid. The good faith deposit must be in the form of a certified or cashiers
check or bank draft or a wire transfer of funds to Resource Bank & Trust Company,
ABA #09-10-0550-6 for further credit to Ehlers and Associates, Inc. , Bond Issue
Escrow Account #850-788-1, attention Molly Majerle, or a financial surety bond. If
a financial surety bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to
issue such bond in the State of Minnesota, and preapproved by the City. Such
financial surety bond must be submitted to Ehlers and Associates, Inc. prior to the
opening of bids and must identify each bidder whose good faith deposit is guaranteed
by such financial surety bond. If the Bonds are awarded to a bidder using a
financial surety bond, then that original purchaser is required to submit its good
faith deposit in the form of a certified or cashiers check, bank draft or wire transfer
as instructed by Ehlers and Associates, Inc., not later than 3:00 p.m. Central Time

received by that time, the financial surety bond may be drawn by the City to satisfy
such good faith deposit requirement and such amount will be deducted form the
purchase price at the closing and no interest will accrue to the original purchaser.
The good faith deposit will be retained by the City as liquidated damages if the bid
is accepted and the bidder fails to comply therewith. The good faith deposit will be
returned to the purchaser at the closing for the bonds. The bid authorizing the
lowest net interest cost (total interest from date of bonds to stated maturities less
any cash premium or plus any discount) will be deemed the most favorable. No oral
bid and no bid of less than $860,000 plus accrued interest on all of the bonds will be
considered and the City reserves the right to reject any and all bids and to waive
any informality in any bid.
