Remote Bid Opening (April 27):  

According to the Governor’s Executive Order No. 2020-48, temporary authorization has been given to allow remote participation in public meetings and hearings and continues through May 12, 2020. The purpose is to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, protect the public health, and provide essential protections to vulnerable Michiganders, it is crucial that all Michiganders take steps to limit in-person contact. These critical mitigation measures include social distancing and limiting the number of people interacting at public gatherings.

To that end, it is reasonable and necessary to temporarily suspend rules and procedures relating to physical presence at meetings and hearings of public bodies and other governmental entities in Michigan. These public bodies and entities must continue to conduct public business during this emergency, including actions to respond to COVID-19, and the general public must be able to continue to participate in government decision-making without unduly compromising public health, safety, and welfare.

The purchasing committee will hold a remote bid opening on Monday, April 27, 2020 at 11:00 a.m.
