Sealed proposals must be opened by a member or employee of the community college board at a public opening at which the contents of the proposals must be announced. Each person or entity submitting a sealed proposal must receive at least 10 days notice of the time and place of the opening. The community college district shall select the qualified provider that best meets the needs of the district. The community college district shall provide public notice of the meeting at which it proposes to award a guaranteed energy savings contract of the names of the parties to the proposed contract and of the purpose of the contract. The public notice shall be made at least 10 days prior to the meeting. After evaluating the proposals under Section 5A-30, a community college district may enter into a guaranteed energy savings contract with a qualified provider if it finds that the amount it would spend on the energy conservation measures recommended in the proposal would not exceed the amount to be saved in either energy or operational costs, or both, within a 20-year period from the date of installation, if the recommendations in the proposal are followed. Contracts let or awarded shall be submitted to the administrators of the Capital Development Board Procurement Bulletin for publication.
