§ 2.9.4 - Purchasing contracts.
Liability in the City and County to pay for services or materials purchased by the Department shall arise only by reason of a written Purchase Order, an award pursuant to a bidder's proposal, a request for proposal issued by the Department with the authority of the Manager, or a regularly executed written contract. (A) Letting of contracts by the Department. Written contracts for the purchase of supplies, equipment, personal property and services shall be let by the Department, whenever deemed advisable by the Manager when the complexities of specifications and conditions warrant; in instances of extensive services, repairs and maintenance; and whenever a written Purchase Order is deemed insufficient protection to the City and County. (B) Contracts subject to Charter. Every contract let by the Department shall be subject to the provisions of this Charter and of any ordinances authorizing the contract and shall contain a clause to that effect.
