Goods, Materials and Services
It
shall be the policy of the Town to purchase goods, materials and services from
reliable vendors at the lowest cost to the town.
All
Departments, Boards, and Commissions budgeted to purchase goods, materials, and
services will adhere to the following procedures in connection with the
purchase and receipt of goods and services:
1. Major
Purchases and Contracting
Except where waived by the
General Municipal Law, all contracts for the purchase of
materials, supplies and equipment involving
expenditures of $10,000.00 or more; contracts for the accomplishment of public
works for more than $20,000.00 shall be let through advertised sealed bids in
accordance with the General Municipal Law.
2. Purchase
of other Materials, Goods, Equipment and Services
(a)
Purchase
of goods and materials involving expenditures of less than $300.00 which are proper
Town charges and covered by appropriations may be authorized by the heads of
Departments, Boards, and Commissions having budget appropriations assigned to them. Claims will be processed through normal
channels and audited by the Town Board.
When the balances in contractual and/or equipment are reduced to $500.00
or less the effected department will be notified and no purchases can be made
without prior approval of the budget officer.
(b)
Quotations from at least two and preferably three vendors must
be obtained for all Purchases over $300.00 for material, supplies and equipment
not purchased on State, County or Town contracts or bids. Quotations may be obtained
in writing or by telephone. In the
latter case the purchaser will enter the quotations listing: (i) Date of Quote, (ii) Items Quoted, (iii)
Vendor Name, (iv) Address and Phone number, (v) Prices Quoted, and (vi)
Successful vendor. The Purchase Order
will be subject to regular and periodic audit.
Written quotes will be kept on file.
(c) All purchases of greater
than $300.00 in value except, as noted below must be approved in advance by the
Town Board. Exceptions are purchases of
bulk operating material routinely delivered, such as fuel and heating Fuel,
bulk materials for highway projects, or repair parts.
(d) Qualified Town of Charlton vendors or goods, services, or
materials purchased by the Town must be given the opportunity to quote. This is not intended to eliminate vendors
outside Town boundaries.
(e) Except when directed by
the Town Board, no solicitation of written proposals or quotations shall be
required under the following circumstances:
1)
Acquisitions of professional services
2)
Emergencies
3)
Sole source situations
4)
Goods purchased from agencies for the blind or severely handicapped
5)
Goods purchased from correctional facilities
6)
Goods purchased from another governmental agency
7)
Goods purchased at auction
8)
Goods purchased for less than $300.00
9)
Public works contracts for less than $500.00
(f) Price quotations must be
F.O.B. Town Hall, Highway Department or Town job site. In those cases where the
Town must provide pickup services, these costs will be added to the price for
evaluation purposes using the following formula:
Pickup Truck = Total mileage x
$.50/mile plus driver/helper hourly rates x trip time
Large Truck = Total mileage x $1.50/mile plus personnel
time as above
(g)
Selection
of vendor will be made on the basis of lowest delivered price assuming the vendor
meets delivery and specification requirements.
(h) Qualified Town of
Charlton vendors will be awarded the order or contract in those cases where
delivered prices are equal and delivery dates are satisfactory on a competitive
basis.
(i) Spare or renewal parts quotations should be
obtained from the original equipment manufacturer/dealer and from “after
market” vendors of like parts in order to obtain the lowest price.
(j)
Vouchers submitted to the supervisor for payment must be accompanied by the
vendor’s invoice where one
exists. The voucher will list each
detailed item received and will be signed in the “Department Approval” block by
the employee of the Town physically receiving the goods or services to verify
that the goods or services appearing on the invoice were in fact received. Alternately, the person actually receiving
the goods may sign off on the invoice or shipping document furnished by the
vendor. This must be attached to the
voucher. The voucher will further be countersigned by the head of the
responsible Department or Board involved to confirm receipt.
(k) The Supervisor may in
the case of any emergency situation and upon request of the department or
agency head involved waive all or part of Paragraph 2 of this policy to authorize
purchases necessary to protect the safety, health or general welfare of the Town
or residents. Each emergency case must
be documented and reported to the Town Board by the Department at the next
regular meeting of the Board.
