Four Oaks rescinds prior grant administration award after bidding error; re‑awards to lowest bidder
Summary
The board rescinded a June 17 award for grant administration services after determining the contract had not been properly advertised, readvertised the procurement and unanimously awarded the contract to the lowest bidder, Skip Green.
The Town of Four Oaks Board of Commissioners on July 15 rescinded an earlier June 17 motion awarding grant administration services after realizing the procurement had not been properly advertised under state law.
Commissioner Mike Hines moved to rescind and terminate the June 17 motion; Commissioner Kim Robertson seconded and the board voted unanimously to rescind. The board then readvertised the grant administration opportunity. Town Clerk Rhonda Lee reported two bids were received following readvertisement; the board voted unanimously to accept Skip Green’s low bid and directed town administration to finalize the contract.
The board recorded no public objections during the procurement discussion and did not provide contract dollar amounts in the minutes. The rescission and readvertisement were taken to ensure compliance with state procurement requirements. No amendments to the reaward were recorded at the meeting and staff were tasked with completing contract finalization.
