of trustees by publishing the notice at least once a week for two
weeks in a newspaper published and circulated in the county and
designated by the board of trustees. All bids shall be sealed and
shall be opened at the time specified in the notice, and the contract
shall be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder. The board may,
however, reject any and all bids. The contract and bond for its
performance must be entered into and approved by the board of
trustees, except, however, in cases of emergency, by the unanimous

given, the board shall comply with Chapter 2.5 (commencing with

of any contract for the erection or repair of dikes, levees, or
other works, the board of trustees shall have prepared by a competent
engineer, plans and specifications and working details of the work,
that shall be adopted by the board of trustees and filed in the
office of the board and shall be subject to inspection by any person
for at least two weeks prior to the date of the letting of the
contract. The board of trustees shall appoint an engineer to
supervise the construction, repair, or other works to be done under
the plans and specifications and no claim shall be allowed for any
work done under any contract let under those plans and specifications
without a certificate being first filed in the office of the board
of trustees and in the office of the clerk of the board of
supervisors of the county signed by the engineer, certifying that the
work has been completed and constructed according to the plans and
specifications and the terms of the contract. The engineer shall be
paid the compensation agreed upon by the board of trustees and the
compensation shall be paid in the same manner as other claims against
the district.
