A. The governing authority, after having given notice of its intention as above set forth and after disposing of all objections and having decided to order the construction of such improvements, may without further delay have the necessary plans and specifications for said work prepared and may authorize the advertisement for bids therefor, as provided by law. Said notice shall contain a general description of work contemplated, shall refer to plans and specifications which shall be placed on file with the clerk, secretary, or purchasing agent of the governing authority, shall designate the hour, date, and place for the reception and opening of bids, and may provide either that the contractor be required to accept certificates of indebtedness hereafter authorized if the governing authority elects to make such requirement or that they may be sold in such a manner and at such time as the governing authority may elect.
B. Drainage improvements authorized under the provisions of this Chapter may be combined, constructed, and installed as a part of road or street paving improvements undertaken by the city or jointly by the city with the parish or with the Department of Transportation and Development. Advertisement for bids on such projects shall be in accordance with the requirements of law applicable to road or street paving improvements ordered by the city, the parish, or the Department of Transportation and Development and it shall not be necessary that the project be advertised as otherwise provided in this Section.
Where drainage improvements authorized under the provisions of this Chapter are included in and constructed as an integral part of a road or street paving project being undertaken by the city, the parish, or the Department of Transportation and Development, the lowest responsible bid received for the entire project shall govern, and assessments to be levied as hereinafter provided shall be based upon the total of the unit prices contained in the bid proposal and applicable to the drainage work included in the joint project as determined and certified by the city's engineer.
