§ 8.07. Purchase procedure.
The director of finance shall have authority to make expenditures from one [(1)] or more municipal funds without the approval of the city council for all budgeted items up to that amount which, under state law, triggers the competitive procurement process. Within sixty (60) days from the date this section becomes effective, city council shall adopt an ordinance to provide all contracts, purchases and other procurements comply with the statutory competitive procurement process and other relevant laws. Said ordinance shall be reviewed within sixty (60) days from the date each legislative session ends, and shall be amended as necessary to comply with any changes to the statutory competitive procurement process, or other relevant laws adopted in that legislative session. Said ordinance may be reviewed and amended at any other times, as deemed expedient and necessary by city council or if required by amendment to the Texas Constitution.
