Purchasing works jointly with the various City departments in developing bid specifications, scopes of work and is responsible for facilitating the competitive processes and contract management. Additionally, the City is responsible for monitoring annual contracts, surplus property sells, including City fleet, and unclaimed confiscated goods. Our online tools are designed to provide vendors with the information needed to do business with the City.
