BID FORMS

Bidders failing to use the bid form provided by the City will be disqualified. Each bidder may submit only one bid. To be considered, the bid must be signed with the bidder's legal signature, and must be accompanied by the required bid deposit. E-mailed or faxed bids will not be considered.

BID OPENING

All bids will be opened at the time and date specified. No bid received after that time will be considered.

AWARD

Bid award will be to the highest responsible bidder in accordance with Wyoming Statute 15-1-112. The City reserves the right to reject all bids or to waive any formalities in the bidding in the interest of the City.

In the event of a tied high bid, the City will open a 2^nd round of sealed bidding. Only bidders having participated in the original Bid will be eligible to bid on the 2^nd round. Bidders will be given five (5) business days to submit a 2^nd bid.

In the event of a tied high bid, on the 2^nd round of sealed bidding: award shall be made by a drawing by lot limited to those bidders (drawing slip of paper with Bidders name on it). If time permits, the bidders involved shall be given an opportunity to attend the drawing. The drawing shall be witnessed by at least three persons, and the contract file shall contain the names and addresses of the witnesses and the person supervising the drawing.

BID DEPOSIT

Each bid shall be accompanied by a bid deposit equal to One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00). Deposits may be in the form of a Cashier's Check, certified check, bank money order or personal or company check with sufficient funds, drawn on a local bank and made payable to the City of Cheyenne. Bid deposits of unsuccessful bidders will be returned promptly. The successful bidder shall remit the balance of their bid at the time the property is scheduled to close. If the buyer fails to close on the property the bid deposit shall be forfeited in favor of the City, and the surplus item(s) will be re-advertised for sale. This is inclusive of the buyers inability to secure funding for the closing.

PREQUALIFICATION / VERIFICIATION OF FUNDS

As a part of the bid submission, a Letter of Prequalification from a Mortgage Lender or Letter of Verified Funds from a Financial Institution, shall be uploaded for review by the City. This is to demonstrate the Buyer's financial ability to close on the property if they are the selected high bidder.
