Council adopts updates to purchasing policy in employee handbook
Summary
Council approved Resolution 26-2004 adopting updates to the employee handbook purchasing policy to add guidance for federal awards and to reference 2 CFR 200 for federal-award standards; finance director said only minor text changes were made since the prior presentation.
The council unanimously approved updates to the employee handbook's purchasing-policy section by adopting Resolution 26-2004. Finance director Michelle Robec said the revisions incorporate additional guidance for federal awards (direct and indirect costs) and include a citation to the full text of 2 CFR 200 rather than a partial citation, noting only minor wording adjustments since the item was discussed on July 20.
"The attached updates to the purchasing policy incorporate additional guidelines for federal awards and add a new federal award standard section," Robec said. Council members moved and seconded the resolution and there was no public comment; the motion passed. Staff said the change is intended to help the city manage federal awards in compliance with uniform administrative requirements and audit principles.
