Hotel Services for Isolation Patients

The City of Louisville is soliciting proposals under RFP270097 to secure hotel services for the housing of isolation patients who cannot be isolated at home. This solicitation, posted on November 4, 2026, requires responses by November 25, 2026, for performance within the state of Kentucky. The primary point of contact for this effort is Kim Brown. Award evaluations will be based in part on the vendor's adherence to criminal history policies, specifically the Ban the Box requirements of LMCO Section 112.30, which prohibits criminal history inquiries on initial employment applications. While certain exceptions exist for roles involving fiduciary responsibilities, access to confidential data, or unsupervised access to vulnerable populations, non-compliance may lead to contract termination or denial. Additionally, vendors may apply for a Local Vendor Preference or a Minimum Wage Preference if they pay full-time employees at least $10.10 per hour, though providing false information for these certifications may result in significant financial penalties ranging from 25% to 30% of the contract amount.
