The following contracts have been provided to the District’s governing Board (“Board”) for ordering payment and for ratification.
The Board approved on November 7, 2024, Resolution No. 06-110724, delegating the authority to award contracts contained in Education Code section 17604 to the District's Superintendent, Chief Business Officer, Associate Superintendent(s), and Assistant Superintendent(s), altogether, “Authorized Individuals”. Contracts awarded by Authorized Individuals under Resolution No. 06-110724 are “Delegated Contracts.” The Board limited the delegated authority for Delegated Contracts with the following additional requirements:
- Student Services. No limit for classroom-based services for individual students, services related to Individual Education Plans, or other special education services;
- Construction, Repairs or Maintenance. $220,000 limit for construction, repair or maintenance services utilizing a resolution passed in 2004 to utilize the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Account Act (CUPCCAA);
- Services. $50,000 limit, per vendor per year, for all other services;
- Equipment, Materials and Supplies. Up to the current bid limit for equipment, materials and supplies ($114,500 in 2024; Public Contract Code §20111).
The Business Office conducts a review of contracts to ensure compliance with terms and conditions. However, the responsibility for evaluating the quality and delivery of services outlined in the contract rests with the staff members who negotiate the agreements.
