By Council Members Jackson, Clarke, Comrie, Gennaro, Gerson, Koppell, Lopez, Perkins, Quinn, Stewart, Yassky and Moskowitz

 

A Local Law to amend the New York city charter in relation to discretionary contracts under the small purchase limits.

 

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

 

Section 1.  The New York city charter is amended by adding a new section 314-a to read as follows:

§ 314-a. Discretionary appropriations.  (a) Contracts resulting from discretionary appropriations of a council member or borough president to a not-for-profit organization for the provision of technical, consultant, or personal service shall be executed no later than sixty days following the date of the appropriation.

(b) Such contracts, when valued at or below the small purchase limits, shall be in a simplified form and follow a simplified procurement process.  The procurement policy board shall, by rule, define such form and process.

§ 2.  This local law shall take effect 45 days after its enactment.
