This section is included in your selections.

When the City Manager determines that immediate execution of a contract within the City Manager’s authority is necessary to prevent substantial damage or injury to persons or property, the City Manager may execute the contract without competitive selection and award or City Council approval, but, where time permits, competitive quotes should be sought from at least three providers.

(1) When the City Manager enters into an emergency contract, the City Manager shall, as soon as possible in light of the emergency circumstances, document the nature of the emergency, the method used for selection of the particular contractor, and the reason why the selection method was deemed in the best interest of the City and the public.

(2) The City Manager shall also notify the City Council of the facts and circumstances surrounding the emergency execution of the contract. (Ord. 135 § VIII(D), passed 3-13-2018)
