§  2030.  Contracts.  All  contracts, or orders, for work, material or   supplies performed or furnished in connection with construction shall be   awarded by the authority pursuant  to  resolution.  Such  contracts,  or   orders, for work, material or supplies needed for any particular purpose   involving  an expenditure of more than two thousand five hundred dollars   shall be awarded only after inviting sealed bids or proposals  therefor.   The notice inviting sealed proposals shall be published at least once in   a  newspaper  or trade paper selected by the authority for such purpose,   such publication to the be at least ten days before  the  date  for  the   receipt  of bids. If the authority shall not deem it for the interest of   the authority to reject all bids, it shall award  the  contract  to  the   lowest  bidder,  unless the authority shall determine that it is for the   public interest that a bid other than the lowest bid should be accepted.   In any contract for work, material or supplies, there shall be  inserted   in  the discretion of the authority a provision that additional work may   be done or material or supplies furnished for the purpose of  completing   such  contract  at  an  expense  not exceeding fifteen per centum of the   amount of such contract if such additional work, materials  or  supplies   shall  be  ordered  by  the  authority. The bidder whose bid is accepted   shall give security for the faithful performance of  the  contract,  and   such other security as the authority may require, and may be required to   maintain  for  such  period as shall be stipulated any construction done   under the contract, all in the manner prescribed  and  required  by  the   authority;  and  the  sufficiency of such security shall, in addition to   the justification and acknowledgment, be approved by the authority.  All   bids  or proposals shall be publicly opened by the authority or its duly   authorized agent.   If the bidder whose  bid  has  been  accepted  after   advertising  shall  neglect or refuse to accept the contract within five   days after written notice that the same has been awarded to him  on  his   bid or proposal, or, if he accepts but does not execute the contract and   give  proper  security the authority shall have the right to declare his   deposit forfeited, and thereupon it shall be readvertised and  relet  as   above  provided.  In case any work shall be abandoned by any contractor,   the authority may, if the best interest  of  the  authority  be  thereby   served, adopt on behalf of the authority any or all subcontracts made by   such contractor for such work and all such subcontractors shall be bound   by such adoption if made; and the authority shall in the manner provided   herein readvertise and relet the work specified in the original contract   exclusive of so much thereof as shall be provided for in the subcontract   or  subcontracts  so  adopted.  No  bid  shall  be  accepted from or any   contracts awarded to, any person or corporation who is in arrears to the   authority, or the county of Onondaga upon any debt or contract, or is  a   defaulter  as  surety or otherwise upon any obligation of the authority,   or the county. Every contract involving an expenditure of more than  two   thousand  five  hundred  dollars  when  made  and entered into as herein   provided for shall be executed in duplicate, one copy of which shall  be   held  by  the  authority and one copy of which shall be delivered to the   contractor.
