Require staff to disclose contract history when seeking approval for changes
In Plain English
Staff currently provides limited background when asking council to approve contract changes. The new rules require staff to show each department's contract awards from the past year, all contracts given to the same vendor over 3 years, and previous change orders. If approved, residents get more transparency about how the city spends tax dollars on contractors.
