If in the case after repeated notification the Entity continues to be substantially non-compliant, the Division may recommend the contract or award be terminated. • The Division will make a recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners to immediately terminate the agreement or contract. The Entity will be required to repay all funds disbursed by the County for project that was terminated. The entity will be considered in violation of Resolution No. 2013-228 If in the case the Entity has multiple agreements with the Division and is found to be non- compliant, the above sanctions may be imposed across all awards at the Director's discretion.
