AN ACT concerning local government.
|
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
represented in the General Assembly:
|
Section 5. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by |
changing Section 9-2-100 as follows:
|
(65 ILCS 5/9-2-100) (from Ch. 24, par. 9-2-100)
|
Sec. 9-2-100.
Except as otherwise provided in Section |
9-2-113, any work or
other public improvement, to be paid for |
in whole or in part by special
assessment or special taxation, |
when the expense thereof will exceed $10,000 $500,
shall be |
constructed by contract let to the lowest responsible bidder in
|
the manner prescribed in this Division 2. Such contracts shall |
be approved
by the president of the board of local |
improvements.
|
In case of any work which it is estimated will not cost |
more than $10,000 $500,
if after receiving bids it appears to |
the board of local improvements that
the work can be performed |
better and cheaper by the municipality, the
corporate |
authorities of the municipality shall perform that work and
|
employ the necessary help therefor. The cost of that work by |
the
municipality in no case shall be more than the lowest bid |
received.
