On November 19, 2015, the District's Governing Board approved Resolution No. 1580.11/15 delegating authority to award contracts to the District's Superintendent, Chief Business Officer, Associate Superintendent(s), and Assistant Superintendent(s) (altogether, “Authorized Individuals”) pursuant to Education Code sections 17604 and 17605 (“Delegation Statutes”). Contracts awarded by Authorized Individuals under the Delegation Statutes shall be “Delegated Contracts.”
Delegated Contracts must be ratified by the District’s Governing Board (“Board”), unless they are under the bid limits set forth in Public Contract Code (“PCC”) section 20111, in which case they only need to be reviewed by the Board every 60 days.
