BACKGROUND
The Napa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (District) currently maintains its own purchasing policy as outlined in the District Bylaws. However, recent updates to the County of Napa’s Purchasing Policy have provided more streamlined, efficient and accountable procedures for public procurement and contracting.
To enhance operational consistency, improve administrative efficiency and ensure compliance with updated procurement standards, staff recommends amending the District Bylaws be edited to align the District’s purchasing procedures with those of the County of Napa.
The proposed Resolution amends Section XVI of the District Bylaws, adding to the current Purchasing Policy with language that defers to the Purchasing Policy of the County of Napa.
