The Judicial Council of California is soliciting proposals for a sleeping room block to support the Cow County Judge Institute in the Sacramento Natomas area. The preferred dates for the event are June 8 through 11, 2027, with an alternative option of June 6 through 9, 2027. Interested hotels must submit their technical and cost proposals via email to ConferenceRFPs@jud.ca.gov by 11:59 PM Pacific Time on October 30, 2026. Submissions must include the Bidder’s Acceptance of Terms and Conditions, Darfur Contracting Act Certification, General Certifications Form, and the Technical and Cost Proposal form. All quoted rates must be net and non-commissionable, as the Judicial Council does not use third-party representations.

Key requirements include providing complimentary parking, maintaining meeting room temperatures between 68 and 74 degrees Fahrenheit, and adhering to strict non-discrimination and safety standards. Payment for the master account will be processed via a U.S. Bank National Association Travel Payment Services Card (TPSC) following the approval of a final invoice. Selected contractors must be in good standing within the State of California and certify compliance with various legal codes, including the Darfur Contracting Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Additional provisions include a room credit of one double occupancy room for every 50 paid room nights and the potential for five-day stay extensions in the event of a disease quarantine.
