[Ord. No. 4243 §I, 7-23-2015]
Nothing in the Procurement Policy set forth in Chapter
150 of the City's Municipal Code shall be interpreted to preclude the use of selection methods, including, but not limited to, qualifications-based selection, design-build contracts, and/or negotiated contracts with architectural, engineering and construction services to the extent permitted by applicable law. In this Section
150.500, "design-build" means a project in which the design and construction services are furnished under one contract with a contractor selected primarily based on qualifications and "qualifications-based selection" means a negotiated procurement process for the selection of professional architects, engineers and land surveying services using objective criteria looking for competence and experience relative to the work to be performed.
