The Board expressly reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids, or any part of any
or all bids based on a lowest and best bid determination in the best interest of the County. The Board
of Supervisors may consider the following factors in determining the award: date of delivery,
service, previous performance and experience of bidder, buy back options, transportation costs, costs
of operating, quality, maintenance and warranty. The Board reserves the right to waive informalities.
The agreement shall contain an annual allocation dependency clause substantially similar to that set

The County reserves the right to utilize "anti-sniping" for reverse auctions. Anti-sniping is
a tool that automatically extends the bid time for reverse auctions by five (5) minutes if a vendor
places a bid in the final five (5) minutes of the reverse suction. The anti-sniping effect will
automatically extend the reverse auction bid time any time a bid is placed in the last five (5) minutes
of the reverse auction and can auto extend the reverse auction multiple times until the bidding on the
reverse auction ends.
SO RESOLVED, on this the 6th day of December, 2021.
