No city participation will be paid for work performed prior to a CFA being executed or for work performed that was not procured in accordance with state law. Contractors working pursuant to a CFA that includes city participation must be selected in accordance with state laws relating to the expenditure of public funds and the procurement of contractors for public works projects. The method of selection may include lowest responsive and responsible bid, or best value, as allowed by state law.
