The Supervisor, in consultation with the department head, shall develop bid specifications. Bid specifications for purchases that will exceed $10,000 shall be approved by the Township Board. A department head may request permission from the Township Board to waive the bidding requirements when there is only one known supplier or there is some other compelling reason to waive the bid procedures.
