[Adopted 7-25-2016 by L.L. No. 4-2016]
It is the intent of this article to allow the Village of Maybrook
the option to award certain purchase contracts (including contracts
for services) which are subject to competitive bidding pursuant to
General Municipal Law § 103, on the basis of "best value"
as defined in State Finance Law § 163.
This article is adopted pursuant to New York State General Municipal
Law § 103, which allows municipalities to authorize, by
local law, the award of certain purchase contracts, which are subject
to competitive bidding, including contracts for services, on the basis
of "best value" as defined by State Finance Law § 163. The
best-value option may be used if it is more cost-efficient to the
Village over time to award the contract for goods or services to other
than the lowest responsible bidder if certain factors can be documented.
If any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, or part of
this article or the application thereof to any person, firm or corporation,
or circumstance, shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction
to be invalid or unconstitutional, such order or judgment shall not
affect, impair, or invalidate the remainder thereof, but shall be
confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision,
or part of this article or in its application to the person, individual,
firm or corporation or circumstance, directly involved in the controversy
in which such judgment or order shall be rendered.
