Section 5:34-3.1 - Duration of contract

The specifications for rebidding after the maximum number of years should not require that the equipment be in the possession or service of the contracting unit.

(b) Such leases and service agreements may be written for any period of time not to exceed the maximum statutory period, or for shorter periods with provision for renewal at the option of the contracting unit, provided that such renewal shall not cause the cumulative length to exceed the permitted length of time. Such renewals may be authorized only by resolution of the governing body.

See: 32 New Jersey Register 3237(a), 32 New Jersey Register 4300(a).
