Introduce Ordinance No. rc~ -~ , amending the purchasing procedures to adjust the
dollar amount required or formal bids to fifteen thousand dollars {$15,000), to
increase other purchasing amounts proportionately and to clarify purchases that are
not governed by the Ordinance.
ITEM EXPLANATION
The City of Carlsbad adopted a Purchasing Ordinance in October, 1966. Since that
time, the Ordinance has been reviewed and revised occas'lonally to ensure that the
City is following current and accepted purchasing procedures. It was five years ago
when the dollar amount for formal bids was adjusted from $5,000 to $10,000, and the
requirement for informal bids was raised to $500. Recently, a careful review of the
City's Ordinance and a study of other agencies' purchasing ordinances was
undertaken. The proposed changes to the City's ordinance are the result of this
study and are listed below:
1. Raising the dollar limits for formal bids from $10,000 to $15,000.
2. Increasing the dollar limits from $500 to $1,000 before quotations are
required.
In addition to the above proposed changes, certain procedures that have been
practiced need to be clarified and incorporated in the ordinance. These proposed
additions include the following:
I. Bidding .may be dispensed with when a commodity, furnishing or piece of
equipment has been standardized by the City Manager or by the City Council.
2. Certain supplies, services and equipment are not subject to the bidding
provisions of the Purchasing Ordinance. These may include Public Works
Projects, Uti'lities (gas, electricity, telephone), work performed by another•
public agency, real property purchases and related costs, credit card
purcha~es of gasoline, oil or emergency automotive needs, freight charges,
insurance and bond premiums, advertising, and works of art.
Also, there is one legal reference pertaining to the administration of contracts for
public projects that needs to be changed to reflect the creation of the Public
Contract Code that was established by the legislature in 1982.
The above recommended amendments and additions to the Purchasing Ordinance will
protect the integrity of the competitive bidding system and bring the City into line
with current public purchasing practices in California.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no direct cost to the City; however, since the number of formal bids
will be less, there will be a savings in the legal advertising costs .

SUMMARY OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS AND ADDITIONS TO PURCHASING ORDINANCE
The City's purchasing ordinance establishing procedures for acquisition of
supplies, services and equipment was first adopted in October, 1966. Several
revisions have been made since that time, with the most recent revision
o~curring in Jµne, 1986.
One of the goals of the Purchasing Department this year is to review and -revise
the present purchasing ordinance and bring it up-to-date with current and
accepted purchasing practices.
During the past three months a careful revi~w of the City's ordinance has been
made. In addition to reviewing the City's ordinance, a study of other public
agencies' purchasing ordinances was undertaken. The recommended amendments and
additipns to the Carlsbad Municipal Code are a result of this study and are
considered necessary for a viable and comprehensive purchasing policy.
There are three sections of the present ordinance where major amendments should
be made. One involves exceptions to the bidding procedures, another i nvo 1 ves
t~e raising the dollar amount for formal and informal bidding and the third is
changing 11 1 ega l reference for pub 1 i c projects. A summdry of the
recommendations is presented below:
SECTION 3.28.090 -BIDDING
This section of the ordinance outlines the circumstances when bidding
procedures may be dispensed with. The present ordinance indicates bidding may
be dispensed with when an item costs less than $500. This amount was
established in 1982, and now it is recommended the amount be raised to $1,000.
Several public agencies have already raised the dollar amount to $1,000 before
informal bids {quotations) are required. These agencies have not experienced
any proble~s since the Purchasing Officer still has the discretion to obtain
quotes from any item up to $1,000. By increasing the dollar amount _to $1,000,
more time can be given to the higher cost items where the potential for savings
is greater.
There is .one other circumstance when the bidding procedures should be waived.
From time to time, the City Council or the City Manager have determined it is
advantageous to standardize on a furnishing or a piece of equiprQnt. In April,
1986, Council approved the standardization of Xerox copy machines making it
possjhle for the City to purchase these machines without having to develop
specifications and going out to bid on a technical piece of equipment. If the
bidding requirements were waived for items that have been standardized, it is
estimated that 8 -12 weeks could be saved in the procurement process.

SECTION 3.28.120 -FORMAL BIDDING PROCEDURES
The present ordinance requires formal bidding procedures be used when
purchasing supplies, services and equipment costing $10,000 or more. This
amount was established five years ago and has become somewhat restrictive
considering the erosion in buying power over the past five years. It is
recommended the amount be raised from $10,000 to $15,000. If the formal
bidding amount was raised to $15,000, the informal bidding or open market
procedures would be used for purchasing supplies, services and equipment
co::ting less than $15,000. The change in the formal bidding procedures would
not affect Public Works Contracts since these contracts are subject to Section
20160 -20174 of the Public Contract Code.
Approximately, three -four weeks could be saved by using the informal bidding
proce~ures for purchasing supplies, services and equipment costing less than
$15,000. In addition to the ten days saved by not advertising in the paper,
there would be additional time saved in the preparation and review of agenda
bills that would be going to the City Council for the bid award. By using the
informal bidding procedures, the City Manager would have the authority to
execute all contracts for the purchase of supplies, services and equipment in
an amount of less than $15,000.
In addition to these changes, there are certain purchases that have always been
~xempt from the bidding procedures, but they have never been incorporated in
the purchasing ordinance. These items are now spelled out in Section 3.28.190
-Supplies, Services and Equipment Not Governed by This Chapter, and include
gas, electric services, telephone charges (except long distance), work or
services performed by another public agency, purchase of real property,
purchase of gasoline and emergency automotive charges by use of a credit card,
transportation or freight charges, purchase of insurance and bond premiums,
advertising, and works of art.
This completes the recommended additions to the ordinance; however, there is
one legal reference in the present ordinance that heeds to be updated. The
present ordinance indicates that Public Works Contracts are to be administered
in the manner provided by Title 4, Division 3, Part 2, Chapter 6 of the
California Government Code. In 1982, the Public Contract Code was established
by the legislature to combine all the references for public works contracts
into one Code. Therefore, the present refer~nce should be changed to Article
4, Chapter 1, Part~ of Division 2 of the Public Contract Code.
These changes will assure sound competitive purchasing practices will continue
to be followed. Formal bids and quotations will be solicited in accordance to
the ordinance and the guide l i nes est ab 1 i shed by the Purchasing Officer. The
integrity of the competitive bid system will be secure and the City of Carlsbad
will have a comprehensive ordinance for its purchasing program.
