A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO ALLOW THE COUNTY OF MECKLENBURG TO WAIVE BID BONDS ON PUBLIC CONTRACTS.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  G.S. 143-129 as it applies to the County of Mecklenburg is amended to provide that the County Manager or his designee may waive the requirement for a bid bond or deposit for the purchase of apparatus, supplies, material, or equipment where the successful bidder does not have any past experience of nonperformance with the County.  The Board of County Commissioners may consider a bid for the purchase of apparatus, supplies, materials, or equipment and award a contract on such bid notwithstanding the fact that the proposal is not accompanied by a bid deposit with the Board of County Commissioners.
