(A) Justification. If after advertisement, it is determined by the Town Council that the bids are too high, the lowest bidder was not reliable or responsible, or that the proposed improvements could be made for less by the town’s own employees or by negotiated contract, the Town Council may reject all the bids and direct that:
(1) The project be put out again for bid when the conditions are deemed more favorable;
(2) The project be completed by the town and its forces; or
(3) The Town Manager attempt to negotiate a contract that may be more favorable to the town.
(B) Inform bidders. In all advertisements, the right shall be reserved to reject any or all bids, and upon rejecting all bids, other bids may be advertised for or negotiations entered for the contract.
