Increasing the City Manager's contracting authority for both non-public works and public works contracts and change orders to such contracts will also streamline the process to execute Public Works Agency contracts and agreements for the construction, rehabilitation, maintenance, testing and inspection of public infrastructure, thereby improving the delivery of services necessary for the continued enhancement and preservation of such public infrastructure.
