Harlan Council adopts Resolution 2594 removing explicit purchase-order requirement from purchasing policy
Summary
The city council approved Resolution 2594 to amend the purchasing policy by removing language that required purchase orders; council members said the revision eliminates an old item (No. 7) referencing POs and the resolution passed on a unanimous roll-call vote.
Harlan City Council on March 4 adopted Resolution 2594 to amend the city’s purchasing policy by removing an explicit requirement that purchase orders be required for purchases.
Council discussion focused on a specific removal: the policy’s previous item (number seven in the draft) that mandated purchase orders. Members described the change as an update to current practice rather than a new contracting authority; the meeting record shows the PO verbiage removed and the resolution adopted by roll-call vote.
The resolution passed unanimously. Councilors did not detail additional procedural changes in the meeting record; staff will implement the amended policy language in city purchasing procedures.
