stated time and place, not less than [two] 2 weeks in the future,
the board will meet in public hearing to permit any resident of
the county to appear and testify concerning the budgetary

(b) With the exception of land acquisitions, any single
purchase or contract involving an expenditure, in whole or in
part, of county funds which exceed [$1,000] $5,000 shall be
purchased by a bid procedure from the lowest responsible bidder
after public notice inviting proposals has been given by the
County Commissioners. The notice shall be by advertisement in
[one or more] 2 newspapers published in the county for a period
of [three] 2 consecutive weeks prior to the reception of bids.
The notice shall state that in not less than [three] 3 weeks in
