Summary
At its Sept. 12 meeting, the Duncan Common Council unanimously adopted Ordinance 24-03 to incorporate 'Article 4-4 Purchasing' into the town code and approved routine consent items including minutes and August financial reports.
The Duncan Common Council unanimously approved Ordinance 24-03 on Sept. 12, adopting by reference the document titled "Article 4-4 Purchasing" into the Duncan Town Code, Mayor Blake announced at the meeting held at Duncan Town Hall.
The ordinance vote followed routine business in which the council accepted the Aug. 15, 2024 meeting minutes and approved the town's August 2024 financial reports as part of a single consent agenda motion. Mayor Blake moved to accept the consent agenda; Council Member Wearne seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
Council members said the purchasing ordinance was intended to align procurement procedures with the town code; the council record shows Mayor Blake moved passage of Ordinance 24-03 and Council Member Show seconded. The motion carried without recorded opposition.
The council did not attach detailed debate in the minutes; the ordinance title indicates it incorporates the town's purchasing rules by reference. The council listed the item on the agenda as "Ordinance 24-03 Adopting the Document Filed with the Town Clerk and Entitled 'Article 4-4 Purchasing' by Reference to Amend that Section of the Duncan Town Code and Providing for Severability and the Effective Date Thereof."
Next steps: the council set its next regular meeting for Oct. 10, 2024, where several procurement items are scheduled for further action.
