Adequate public notice of an invitation to bid must be given at a reasonable time before the date for open bidding. Amount and bidder name must be recorded and be open to public inspection after the contract has been awarded. The contract must be awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder whose bid conforms to the requirements prescribed by the bid invitation (A.R.S. § 41-2533).
