Does the law provide for emergency purchases above the bid/quote thresholds?

0

Yes. However, the provision for emergency purchases differs between the Local Public Contracts Law and The Public School Contracts Law. For PSCL agencies, an emergency affects the health and/or safety of occupants of school property, whereas, under the LPCL, an emergency can affect the health, safety and/or welfare of the public. The emergency for both schools and local governments must require the immediate delivery of goods or services in order to resolve the situation. It also requires the governing body to allocate funds for the purchases.
