|
7 |
| Sec. 32. The
The Board shall adopt regulations to insure |
8 |
| that the
construction or acquisition by the Authority of |
9 |
| services or public
transportation facilities (other than real |
10 |
| estate) involving a cost of more
than $10,000 and the |
11 |
| disposition of all property of the Authority shall be
after |
12 |
| public notice and with public bidding. The regulations may |
13 |
| provide
for exceptions to the requirements for the issuance and |
14 |
| sale of bonds or
notes of the Authority, to the acquisition of |
15 |
| professional or utility
services and to other matters for which |
16 |
| public bidding is disadvantageous. The
regulations may also |
17 |
| provide for the use of competitive negotiations or the
|
18 |
| prequalification of responsible bidders consistent with |
19 |
| applicable federal
regulations. The requirements set forth |
20 |
| therein shall not apply to
purchase of service agreements or |
21 |
| other contracts, purchases or sales
entered into by the |
22 |
| Authority with any transportation agency or unit of
local |
23 |
| government. |
