| Sec. 9-2-100.
Except as otherwise provided in Section |

| In case of any work which it is estimated will not cost |

the work can be performed |
| 18 |
| better and cheaper by the municipality, the
corporate |
| 19 |
| authorities of the municipality shall perform that work and
|
| 20 |
| employ the necessary help therefor. The cost of that work by |
