Raise minimum contract amount requiring formal bids and allow electronic bidding
In Plain English
The city currently requires formal bidding for contracts above a certain dollar amount. This law change raises that threshold, meaning more contracts can use simpler purchasing procedures. The city will also accept bids submitted electronically instead of requiring paper submissions.
