SUBJECT CONFIRMATION OF EMERGENCY PURCHASES AND/OR CONTRACTS
NECESSARY TO RESPOND TO THE STORM OF MARCH 28, 2000
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council confirm the attached emergency purchases and/or contracts
totaling $2,259,747.22 that were necessary to respond to the storm of March 28, 2000.
DISCUSSION:
Immediately following the storm of March 28, 2000, City staff began undertaking actions to restore the
community to normal operations as quickly as possible. This included clearing debris from public
rights-of-way and private property where the debris represented an immediate hazard; undertaking
emergency operations such as search and rescue, traffic control and security,of high-hazard areas; and
making emergency repairs to City property and/or equipment to protect the property from further
damage.
Some of this work required the expenditure of City funds on an emergency basis through emergency
purchases or entering into contracts on an emergency basis. Details of the vendors/contractor used,
amounts obligated or expended, and purpose is attached. Where possible, existing agreements were
used to secure the best pricing.
Section 252.022 of the Local Government Code exempts from competitive bidding procurements made
necessary as a result of a public calamity. The City Council is requested to confirm these purchases
and contracts. The Department of Law has reviewed these expenditures and has approved them as
emergency purchases.
These obligations or expenditures have been recorded in a special Grant Fund. Funds from the
Federal Emergency Management Agency and/or the City's commercial insurance policy are expected
to offset most of these costs. The balance of the costs that are non-reimbursable will be expensed
back to the operating fund of the departments incurring the costs.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that funds are available, as appropriated, in the Grants Fund.
