All work and materials shall be in accordance with PennDOT Standards and Specifications.

Proposals must be made upon the forms furnished by the Township, as available on PennBid.

This project is subject to the terms and conditions of the Pennsylvania Prevailing Wage Act, as determined by the Secretary of Labor and Industry and, therefore, must be bid as such.

The successful bidder will be required to furnish separate bonds with corporate surety issued by companies authorized to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on the prescribed forms dated the date of the Contract, or separate Federal or Commonwealth chartered lending institution irrevocable letters of credit in a form accepted and approved by the Township, each equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Contract amount, to secure (a) the faithful performance and maintenance of the Contract; and (b) the prompt payment of materials and labor.

Bids must be accompanied by an executed Non-Collusion Affidavit as set forth in the Contract Documents. Failure to submit an Affidavit with the bid proposal may result in disqualification of the bid.

The Award of the Contract, if a contract is awarded, will be to the lowest responsible bidder, as described in the Instructions to Bidders’ Section of the Contract Documents, but the Township reserves the unqualified right to reject any or all bids and to waive any informalities.

The Township also reserves the right to delete any “item” or portion of an “item” contained in the Contract at its discretion, once bids are received.

Prior to awarding the Contract, bids may be held by the Township for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days from the date of the bid opening for the purpose of reviewing the bids and investigating the qualifications of bidders.  During this period, no bid may be withdrawn.

Warwick Township reserves the right to reject any or all proposals.

The bidder who is awarded the Contract may be required to pay “PennBID” a nominal fee.  Bidders are to refer to the PennBID site for the amount of that fee.

PDA 2022 Dog Licenses

2022 Dog Licenses Available at County Treasurers’ Offices; All Dogs Must be Licensed by Jan. 1

Pennsylvanians can now purchase 2022 dog licenses from their county treasurers. State law requires all dogs three months and older to be licensed by Jan. 1 of each year.

An annual dog license is $8.50, or $6.50 if the animal is spayed or neutered. Lifetime licenses are available for dogs that have permanent identification like a microchip or tattoo. Older adults and people with disabilities may be eligible for discounts.

The dog license application is simple and only requests owner contact information and details about the dog being licensed, including name, age, breed and color.

County Treasurer, Kristian Ballerini, offered these reasons for dog licensing:

  • If a dog gets lost, a license is the best way to get him/her back. A license helps animal control and shelters identify a dog and its rightful owners.
  • It’s the law. All dogs three months and older must have a current license.
  • The cost of a license is less than the penalty for being caught without one. Owners who fail to license their dogs could face a fine of up to $300 for each unlicensed dog.
  • License fees support animal control. The annual fee to license a dog helps keep shelters running and supports the work of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture’s Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement, which provides a number of vital services to protect dogs and the public. Last year, the Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement:
  • Enforced health and safety regulations in kennels by licensing 2,428 such operations and conducting more than 5,200 inspections.
  • Helped to secure more than 4,500 stray dogs, placing them in shelters until those that were licensed could be reunited with their owners.
  • Issued more than 3,000 citations and filed 115 misdemeanor complaints for violations of the Dog Law, including failing to license dogs, abandoning dogs, and allowing them to run at large.
  • Investigated nearly 1,500 dog bites, and they investigated and monitored 587 dogs that were deemed dangerous by magisterial judges.
