qualification statements submitted will be kept on file and evaluated for design requirements

when the Lorain County Board of Commissioners is planning to contract for professional design

services.

Qualification statements will be accepted at any time from any professional design firm

or person legally engaged in rendering professional engineering and surveying services. The

County will send out an annual request to update qualification statements which are on file. The

be amended as new Qualification statements are received throughout the year.

Qualification statements will contain information requested on the copies of the attached
