If the successful bidder fails to sign the contract or furnish the bonds required under authority of Code Section 32-4-71, his proposal guaranty, if one had been required by the county, will become the property of the county as liquidated damages. The contract then may be readvertised, performed with county forces, or the project abandoned.
