Renovation of an educational facility in Gleason, Tennessee. Completed plans call for the renovation of a educational facility.

The Weakley County Board of County Commissioners voted April 18, 1983 to implement the County Financial Management System of 1981. This law provides for a purchasing system to be implemented and to use good purchasing techniques in utilizing tax dollars. To implement this law, the county will establish purchasing procedures for those departments which expend funds from the County's General Fund, Highway Fund, School Funds, Federal Funds, and Food Service. Suggestions and ideas from officials, employees, and vendors are welcomed; and with cooperation of all, tremendous savings should be achieved. These policies are organized by section numbers to establish procedures for implementing the law, and references are made to Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) where applicable. This policy is to apply to General, Highway, and School Funds and to all who participate in actions and decisions relating to procurement. A copy of each proposed bid shall be posted on the courthouse board and on the county website, and if the estimated cost exceeds $10,000 for General, School, or Highway Fund, a notice shall be placed in at least one newspaper for publication at least ten days prior to sealed bid openings. In cases of large bids or contracts, the Director of Finance may require a bid bond not to exceed 10% of the total bid. A certified check, cashier's check, or properly executed bond shall accompany the bid proposal. The check shall be made payable to Weakley County. Deposits of the bidders are held until award of the order or contract, and the deposit of the successful bidder is held until helms completed delivery or services and/or, if required, provided a performance bond. The performance bond is used to insure performance of contracts in the time and manner prescribed and to save, indemnify and keep harmless the County against loss. It will be required on any sealed bid item. In cases of large or construction contracts, bid proposals shall require 100% performance bonds. The County reserves the right at any and all times to accept or reject any and/or all bids in whole or in part, and to waive any minor irregularities in any bid. Reasons for rejection should be noted on bid forms. *The list of planholders and/or interested bidders is not being tracked by the stakeholders involved with this project.
