Opening of Bids—Online Live Streaming
The board of education is aware of N.J.S.A. 18A:18A-21 which states the following:
"At such time and place, the purchasing agent of the board of education shall publicly receive the bids and thereupon immediately proceed to unseal them and publicly announce the contents, which announcement shall be made in the presence of any parties bidding or their agents who are then and there present."
Given the ongoing emergency declarations related to COVID-19 and to ensure “social distancing” amongst all parties, the District is eliminating the group gathering for the bid opening. Instead, the bid opening will be streamed live using Zoom. All potential bidders have to visit the board of education website and click on the link below pertaining to the Opening of Bids via Zoom Online Live Streaming.
