When it was leased for bow hunting only 7 years ago, it went for $17/acre and was entirely leased in 5 days

I didn't think it ever closed on the lease then....
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

Ummm, I dont know. Maybe because the lease was not open to public bid and some rich politically connected dude just happened to pick the lease up at a 600-700% discount from the going rate per acre in that area??? FMV for something like that with its history, wildlife, and location is $17-$20/acre, maybe more. And yes, that would be the bow only rate for a property like that, just minutes outside of Birmingham. $3/acre lease price is not even in the realm of reality and they didnt even bother to try to cover up the crookedness of it all. Heck, the deal would've still stunk to high heaven, reaked of an 'insider"/back room deal, and raised a ton of questions had they leased it for $10/acre.

I've never seen a major city, school or public utility that was not governed by their written by-laws and or operational rules and guidelines regarding procurement and sales from and to the general public. Generally those by-laws and operational guidelines are writtten to specifically require that all transactions with the general public, related procurement of services or to the sale and/or leasing of corporately owned assets (land, buildings, equipment, etc) require that formal notice be posted in some manner, at least a minimum number of qualified bids (meeting outlined requirements and received under the noticed guidelines) and that all tranactions consummated by the entity be "arm's length' in nature and at a rate approximating fair market value. Corrupt in regard to a prosecutable criminal statute? Probably not. General corruptness and back room dealing in appearance? Definitely. Something that could get a water works employee fired for it if he was not high enough up in management to be in the "protected class" or did the deal without executive management approval, absolutely. Happens all the time

Do you guys have a law or rule you can cite that says this had to be put up for open bidding? Or that they had to take bids? Evidence that they simply were not approached by the guy about leasing and accepted it? No but if you can get me in touch with the right person, I’ll give them $4 an acre. You probably can’t though because it’s all back room deals and the good ole boy system.

LOL...its bow only and ole girl is worried Her concern is that they might be shooting those automatic assault bows. I know there is a state law that municipal contracts over a certain amount have to be bid out, but I have no idea if a land lease would be considered a contract.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

I have never heard of a governmental entity in any state that is not under a bid law.

I have never heard of a governmental entity in any state that is not under a bid law. Only if the cost is under a certain amount. It was $750 back when i was involved in that stuff if I remember correctly. If someone was willing to do the work for $750 or less, no more bids were required.
