Policy No. A-1  



CENTRAL COAST REGIONAL DISTRICT




Policy: Public Tendering of Major Capital Projects

Preamble: As a general rule all Capital Projects over a specified amount be set to public tender, to encourage local resources in the implementation of projects, where ever possible.  Where not possible, public tenders advertised outside the local community will list the contingency that local people, supplies, and equipment must be given preference.


Policy: That the Central Coast Regional District will Publicly Tender all Capital Projects over $5,000.00.  It is the intent of this Policy to re-enforce the maximum use of local resources, supplies and equipment where ever possible.  Local tenders will receive first preference providing the area of tender expertise be deemed adequate.

If the Capital Project area of expertise cannot be acquired locally, tenders may be awarded out of the valley with a statement that local human resources and material supply and equipment must be used, where ever possible.

The decision of the Central Coast Regional Board of Directors will be final and without prejudice.
