Policy DJ (Purchasing) Pricetag: anything under $25,000

Scary monsters? The District Administrator or his/her designee is authorized to purchase any single item or a quantity of the same item costing more than $5,000 but less than $25,000 upon the solicitation of at least three written bids. Time to tighten the leash.

Hmmm...if the Capital Projects budget this year was $950,000 and about $240,000 of that was for the ONE-TIME district office remodel, then doesn't a $975K budget represent a 37% increase? How believable is that given what we have learned recently? This one pegs the Funny Money meter.
