In such instance the bid security, if any, may be declared forfeited to the County without further notice to the Proposer. In the event of such default, award may then be made to another Proposer determined to be in the best interest of the County, or the solicitation may be cancelled and/or re- advertised for bids as deemed if deemed in the best interests of the County.

In such instance, the Contractor’s performance and/or payments bonds, if any, may be exercised, and the Contract terminated and awarded to another Proposer if determined to be in the best interest of the County. A Proposer/contractor, who has defaulted as discussed above, may be declared by the Chief of Purchasing to be ineligible to bid on future County solicitations for a period of up to two (2) years from the date the County determined the Proposer/Contractor to have defaulted.
