agency shall:
(a) Transmit a notice requesting a statement of interest in the proposed project from all firms that have a current qualifications statement on file; (b) Give adequate public notice of the proposed project, which may include posting on the Internet or newspaper advertisement, requesting firms to
submit qualification statements and statements of interest in the proposed
project; or (c) Contact an appropriate professional organization for a list of firms capable of providing the necessary services. (2) If the regulations of a federal department or agency require a procurement process that is different from the process in KRS 45A.730 to 45A.750 in order that financial
aid can be granted, then the local government agency may exempt itself from the
provisions of KRS 45A.730 to 45A.750. (3) When a local public agency has formed a working relationship with one (1) or more firms based on work previously contracted between them, then the local public
agency may enter directly into negotiations according to KRS 45A.750. If no
contract is successfully negotiated, then the local public agency shall comply with
