Page 2 of 4 City of Redwood City 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA. 94063 Tel: 650-780-7000 www.redwoodcity.org Section 2.67.4 (D) in Chapter 2 of Article VII of the City’s Municipal Code authorizes the City Manager, upon finding that there exists an emergency situation, to enter into emergency Public Works Projects and make emergency purchases of goods, materials, equipment, supplies or services, provided that such emergency procurements shall be made with such competition as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances. "“Emergency procurement" means public works projects or the purchase of goods, materials, equipment, supplies or support services that are required to remedy a situation where the health, safety, welfare or quality of welfare of the public or public property is endangered or severely reduced if (1) immediate corrective or preventive action is not taken, (2) the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a Competitive Bidding Process, and (3) that the action is necessary to respond to the emergency. The City Manager shall report to the City Council any emergency public works project or purchase made and the basis therefor at the next City Council meeting following such action. Given the critical need to maintain unobstructed access to the building and safety for the public and personnel working within the City facility, staff determined that an emergency situation existed because the welfare or quality of welfare of the public and public property would be endangered if immediate corrective action was not taken, and the current conditions would not permit the delay resulting from a competitive bidding process and the proposed repairs were necessary to respond to the emergency. Staff subsequently requested and received emergency authorization from the City Manager to proceed with facilitating the necessary replacement as soon as possible. The image below depicts the general location of the project. 6.F. - Page 2 of 4 176
