ACTION REQUESTED: Adopt/Not Adopt the following Resolution: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO AWARD COMPETITIVE BIDS, REQUESTS FOR PROPOSALS, OTHER PERSONAL SERVICES CONTRACTS EXEMPT FROM BIDDING REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE PURCHASING REGULATIONS, AND APPROVE AMENDMENTS TO PUBLIC CONTRACTS IN CONFORMANCE WITH CITY OF SPRINGFIELD MUNICIPAL CODE AND ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATIONS DURING THE PERIOD COMMENCING JUNE 26, 2018 AND CONTINUING THROUGH SEPTEMBER 4, 2018 WHILE THE COMMON COUNCIL IS IN RECESS. ISSUE STATEMENT: During the City Council’s winter recess the City will need to award contracts that exceed the City Managers signature authority and may need to approve amendments to public contracts where the amendment cost exceeds the limits imposed by Springfield Municipal Code Section 2.706 (3). These actions are normally approved by the Council. To allow City business to proceed as usual during the recess, the Council may want to authorize the City Manager to approve such actions. ATTACHMENTS: 1.) Project/Contract Summary 2.) Resolution DISCUSSION/ FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Municipal Code sets administratively limits on the City Manager’s signature authority to make purchases and award contracts. Council authorization is required for amounts greater than the intermediate threshold. Section 2.706(3) of the Springfield Municipal Code prohibits amendments to public contracts where the amendment cost exceeds certain limits imposed by the Code except in certain cases of City Council approval. For the duration of the Council’s 2018 summer recess, staff suggests that the Council authorize the City Manager to approve competitive bid contracts greater that exceed the intermediate procurement threshold, Requests for Proposals, other personal services contracts exempt from bidding requirements under the purchasing regulations, and to approve amendments to public contracts where the amendment cost exceeds the limits imposed by Section 2.706 (2)(c) without Council approval, including, but not limited to, the projects and contracts, as well as purchases. All expenditures have been budgeted and all purchasing provisions of the Municipal Code are to be followed. City Manager authorization will allow projects to stay on schedule, public service to continue uninterrupted, and limit the City’s exposure.
