RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF UKIAH AMENDING THE
DOLLAR LIMITS FOR OPEN MARKET PROCUREMENTS PURSUANT TO UKIAH CITY
CODE SECTION 1522.
WHEREAS,
1. Ukiah City Code ("UCC") Section 1522 specifies when contracts for supplies and
equipment, maintenance, and personal services may be awarded without additional
notice to the City Council, when the contract may be awarded without prior City Council
approval, but must be reported to the City Council at its next regular meeting after the
purchase has been made, and when the award of the contract requires prior City
Council approval; and
2. The above-described treatment of these purchases depends on the dollar amount of the
purchase; and

limits specified for contracts for supplies and equipment, maintenance, and personal
services by resolution without amending the City Code; and

included within an approved fund account and an unencumbered appropriation exists in
the fund against which the purchase may be charged; and
