If the district finds and records on its minutes that the acquisition or construction of any collection facilities or treatment facilities, or any interest therein, or any portion thereof, or any property or any interest therein or any portion thereof, which is authorized by sections 49-17-161 through 49-17-209 is available or can be acquired or contracted for, from or with only a single source, person, firm or corporation, then such acquisition or contract may be made or entered into without meeting the requirements of any law relating to acquisitions, purchases or contracts by competitive bids.
