In cases of great emergency, as determined by the governing body of the City, including,
but not limited to, states of emergency defined in Section 8558 of the Government
Code, when repair or replacement is necessary to permit the continued conduct of the
operation or services of a public agency or to avoid danger to life or property, the
City Council by a four-fifths (
4/5
) vote, may direct the City Manager to replace or repair any public facility without
adopting plans, specifications, strain sheets, or working details, or giving notice
for bids to let contracts. The work may be done by day labor under the direction of
the City Council, by contract, or by a combination of the two (2). The City Council,
by a four-fifths (
4/5
) vote, may delegate to the City Manager the power to declare a public emergency subject
to confirmation by the City Council, by a four-fifths (
4/5
) vote, at its next meeting. The City Council shall review the emergency action every
fourteen (14) days thereafter until the action is terminated, to determine, by a four-fifths
(
4/5
) vote, that there is a need to continue the action. When the City Council reviews
the emergency action, it shall terminate the action at the earliest possible date
that conditions warrant so that the remainder of the emergency action may be completed
by giving notice for bids to let contracts.
