EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Santa Ana’s Public Works Agency is responsible for building and
maintaining Santa Ana’s infrastructure to maintain the quality of life of its residents and
businesses. This includes building, maintaining, and administering projects related to
public streets, traffic management, storm drains, sewers, water, trash collection,
recycling, street sweeping, public right-of-way landscaping, park maintenance, graffiti
removal, fleet maintenance, building maintenance, and facility improvements.
Since the beginning of FY 2022-23, the City of Santa Ana has drafted and solicited over
105 Invitations for Bids (IFB) and Requests for Proposals (RFP); of which,
approximately 76 percent were related to a Public Works Agency project. The Public
Works Agency, together with the Finance and Management Services Agency, finds that
revisions to both the City Manager’s contract authority and purchasing requirements
regarding its informal and formal bidding process are recommended to modernize the
City’s procurement process, increase the pool of companies who bid on City projects,
increase efficiency, expedite project delivery, and closely align the City’s purchasing
requirements with newly enacted federal and state guidelines while maintaining local
vendor preferences.
If approved, the City Manager will have authority to enter into public works contracts up
to $750,000 and bidding requirements will increase (formal bid process) to $50,000 for
both public works and non-public works contracts.
DISCUSSION
Background
The City’s Municipal Code includes authority for the City Manager to bind contracts,
purchasing thresholds for informal bids and formal bids, and local preference
allowances. The City Council last updated the City Manger’s contracting authority in
March 2019, increasing it from $25,000 to $250,000 for public works contracts, and
$25,000 to $50,000 for non-public works contracts. The City Council last updated the
purchasing thresholds (i.e. informal and formal bidding requirements) in 2012.
Formal and Informal Bid Threshold
The City has an existing formal process to advertise for and collect bids and proposals
for purchases of goods and services over $25,000, and an informal bid requirement for
purchases over $5,000.
Informal bids require staff to document at least three informal quotes gathered via
phone or email for purchases between $5,000 and $25,000, unless unique
Purchasing Policies and Procedures

circumstances dictate the goods or services are only available from less than three
vendors.
Formal bids are required for purchases in excess of $25,000 by way of IFB or RFP. The
formal bidding requires solicitation through Planetbids, the City’s current e-Procurement
portal, as well as a public notice. Public notice includes publication in a newspaper of
general circulation for public works contracts.
Due to the increasing cost of goods and services, informal and formal bidding have
become more frequent. Staff recommends increasing the informal and formal bidding
threshold requirement to $15,001 to $50,000, and $50,001 and above, respectively.
The revision would allow flexibility for staff to do as-needed procurement at local
businesses, more efficient project delivery, and increased efficiency with existing
resources.
Comparison to Other Cities and Proposed Thresholds

cities in Southern California with populations from 300,000 to 500,000. The table

Several of the cities on this list noted that they are also considering increasing contract
authority and procurement thresholds.
City Manager Contracting Authority
The City’s current municipal code authorizes the City Manager to bind the City to any
non-public works contract in an amount not to exceed $50,000 and any public works
contract in an amount not to exceed $250,000. The municipal code also authorizes the
City Manager to bind the City on change orders to any one public work contract of no
more than ten percent of the original contract amount, or $25,000, whichever is greater.
With the increasing amount of public works projects, increasing cost of goods and
services, and desire to improve project delivery, the Public Works Agency and Finance
and Management Services Agency both recommend increasing the City Manager’s
contracting authority from $250,000 to $750,000 for public works contracts. All other
contracts above $50,000 will continue to require City Council approval. Additionally,
staff recommends increasing the City Manager’s change order authority to increase
from ten percent to 20 percent of the original contract amount.
Housekeeping Adjustments
Revisions are proposed to Articles VII and VII.II of Chapter 2 regarding City Manager’s
contracting authority and City purchasing rules and regulations, and Article VIII of
Chapter 33 regarding Public Works construction rules and regulations of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code to clarify the City’s current practice and additional clean-up language
which are administrative in nature.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no quantifiable fiscal impact associated with the proposed ordinance. However,
the City would be able to utilize staff resources more efficiently for other public services.

ORDINANCE NO. NS-XXX
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA AMENDING ARTICLES VII AND VII.II OF
CHAPTER 2 OF THE SANTA ANA MUNICIPAL CODE
REGARDING CITY MANAGER’S CONTRACTING
AUTHORITY AND CITY PURCHASING RULES AND
REGULATIONS, AND ARTICLE VIII OF CHAPTER 33 OF
THE SANTA ANA MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING PUBLIC
WORKS CONSTRUCTION RULES AND REGULATIONS
WHEREAS, Sections 421 and 422 of the Santa Ana City Charter provide that the
City Council may by ordinance authorize the City Manager to bind the City on non -public
works contracts and public works contracts for such amounts as may be established from
time to time.
WHEREAS, Sections 421 and 422 also provide that the City Council may by
ordinance establish rules and procedures for competitive bidding for non-public works
contracts and public works contracts.
WHEREAS, on March 19, 2019, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. NS-2963,
by which the City Manager’s contracting authority was increased to $50,000 for non -public
works contracts and to $250,000 for public works contracts.
WHEREAS, the City Council is regularly presented with a voluminous amount of
contracts and agreements for approval annually. The process to obtain City Council
approval can be lengthy and requires a substantial amount of City staff time. This process
can also adversely impact the City’s ability to provide efficient and timely delivery of
services to its constituents and businesses.
WHEREAS, since the beginning of the current Fiscal Year, the City of Santa Ana,
has prepared and solicited over 105 Invitations for Bids (IFB) and Requests for Proposals
(RFP); of which, approximately seventy six percent (76%) were related to a Public Works
Agency project. The Public Works Agency, together with the Finance and Management
Services Agency, finds that revisions to both the City Manager’s contract authority and
purchasing requirements regarding its informal and formal bidding process are necessary
to modernize the City’s procurement process, increase the pool of companies who bid on
City projects, increase efficiency, expedite project delivery, and closely align the City’s
purchasing requirements with newly enacted federal and state guidelines , while also
maintaining local vendor preferences.
WHEREAS, further increasing the City Manager’s contracting authority for both
non-public works and public works contracts and other housekeeping changes to the
City’s procurement rules and procedures are also desirable because they will free staff
time to devote to other necessary public services and facilitate participation of small local
vendors for the City’s business, as the formal process can be time-consuming and costly.
EXHIBIT 1
Ordinance No. NS-XXX

WHEREAS, further increasing the City Manager’s contracting authority for both
non-public works and public works contracts and change orders to such contracts will
also further 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.
WHEREAS, due to the increasing cost of goods and services as a result of normal,
as well as historic inflation, informal and formal bidding have become more frequent.
Increasing the informal and formal bidding threshold requirement will allow flexibility for
City staff to perform as-needed procurement at local businesses, complete more efficient
project deliveries, and increase overall efficiency with existing resources.

HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
