§ 6-1. Legislative intent.

Latest version.

New York State General Municipal Law § 103(1) allows the Town to authorize, by local law, the award of certain purchase contracts, including contracts for service work subject to competitive bidding and/or competitive request for proposals under General Municipal Law § 103 on the basis of either lowest responsible bidder or "best value" as defined in § 163 of the New York State Finance Law. The "best value" option may be used, for example, if it is more cost efficient over time to award the good or service to other than the lowest responsible bidder or offerer if factors such as lower cost of maintenance, durability, higher quality and longer product life can be documented.
