Subject to the reservations set forth in Paragraph 9 of Section B (General Terms and Conditions) of these specifications, the contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible, responsive proposer. 2. Sales Tax Reimbursement. For sales occurring within the City of San Luis Obispo, the City receives sales tax revenues.

Labor Actions. In the event that the successful proposer is experiencing a labor action at the time of contract award (or if its suppliers or subcontractors are experiencing such a labor action), the City reserves the right to declare said proposer is no longer the lowest responsible, responsive proposer and to accept the next acceptable low proposal from a proposer that is not experiencing a labor action, and to declare it to be the lowest responsible, responsive proposer. 4. Failure to Accept Contract. The following will occur if the proposer to whom the award is made (Contractor) fails to enter into the contract: the award will be annulled; any bid security will be forfeited in accordance with the special terms and conditions if a proposer's bond or security is required; and an award may be made to the next lowest responsible, responsive proposer who shall fulfill every stipulation as if it were the party to whom the first award was made. 5. Contract Term. The supplies or services identified in this specification will be used by the City for up to one year. The prices quoted for these items must be valid for the entire period indicated above unless otherwise conditioned by the proposer in its proposal. 6. Contract Extension. The term of the contract may be extended by mutual consent for an additional one-year, and annually thereafter, for a total of four years.
