Purchasing

The City operates under a decentralized procurement structure. Each department is responsible for its own purchasing needs. However, the Purchasing Division provides oversight and support to ensure that procurement activities across departments meet required standards and comply with applicable City policies and State law.

We are committed to maintaining fair and equal opportunities for all qualified suppliers and appreciate your continued partnership in serving the City's needs.
