The Tennessee Contractor''s Classification required for this project shall be one of the following or any Tennessee approved contractor''s license applicable to this project: N/A If a State of Tennessee Contractor''s license is required, the Contractor''s license monetary limits must meet or exceed the Contractor''s bid price. MLGW shall give Local Bidding Preference or Local Bidding Presence in the awarding of contracts and making purchases whenever applying such a preference is reasonable in light of the dollar-value of the bids received in relation to such expenditures. For Local Bidding Preference or Local Bidding Presence to be used in evaluating bids, all documentation as required in the Local Bidding Preference or Local Bidding Presence Policy must be submitted with the Bid, Bid Bond and Bidder''s qualifications; provided, however, that the preference established in no way limits MLGW''s right to make awards based on applying the MLGW Supplier Diversity Policy. MLGW is subject to the Tennessee Public Records Act. Your bid may be examined by the public after it has been evaluated by MLGW and an award has been made. This project is exempt from the mandatory contractor''s licensing requirements if the bid amount is under $25,000. If the bid amount is under $25,000, the phrase "Exempt from licensing requirement" must appear in the Tennessee License number space on the preprinted bid envelope provided.

The following information must be completed on the outside of the preprinted Bidder''s Envelope: Bidder''s license number, expiration date and that part of the classification applying to the bid (e.g., electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation and air conditioning).
