In case of an apparent emergency which requires immediate purchase of supplies or
contractual services, the purchasing agent or his designee may authorize the purchases
at the lowest obtainable price. Emergency procurement of supplies, materials, services,
professional services and construction items is allowed when there exists a threat
to the public health, welfare, or safety, provided that such emergency procurement
shall be made with such competition as is practicable under the circumstances. A written
determination of the basis for the emergency and for the selection of the particular
contractor shall be made and shall set forth the contractor's name, the amount and
type of the contract, and a listing of the items procured under the contract.
(b)
In no event shall the contract price exceed commercially reasonable prices. A full
explanation of the circumstances of an emergency purchase shall be made in writing
and presented to the board of aldermen at the next regularly scheduled meeting.
