Text

(a) The purchase or lease of material and work
on a capital improvement shall be done by the board under statutes
governing these activities by counties. However, if the total cost of
construction or equipping of a capital improvement or of the alteration,
maintenance, or repair of any building is estimated to be fifty thousand
dollars ($50,000) or less, the board may procure materials and perform
the work by its own employees and with owned or leased equipment
without awarding a contract. In addition, in an emergency determined
and declared by the board and entered in its records, the board may
make emergency alterations, repairs, or replacements and contract for
them without advertising for bids.
(b) Title to or interest in any property acquired shall be held in the
name of the county, and the board has complete and exclusive authority
to sell, lease, or dispose of it and to execute all conveyances, leases,
contracts, and other instruments in connection with it. However, real
property may not be sold without the approval of the executive of the
consolidated city.
