§ 329.25. Process for awarding professional service contracts exceeding twenty thousand dollars ($20,000.00), but not exceeding fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00).

A city agency may award a professional service contract expected to cost over twenty thousand dollars ($20,000.00), but not exceeding fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) by any process chosen by the city agency so long as such process is designed to provide for competition among potential contractors and objectivity in the selection of a contractor. In awarding a contract under this section, the city agency may utilize the processes specified in Section 329.27, Section 329.28, a modified version of either Section 329.27, Section 329.28, or some other process. If either Section 329.27 or Section 329.28 is used to award a contract under this section, the city agency need not comply with the city council notification requirements included in Sections 329.27(a) and 329.28(a).
