Social services contracts shall be procured in accordance with written regulations promulgated by the Family and Community Services Department, or a successor department, and approved by the Chief Administrative Officer and the Chief Procurement Officer. At a minimum, these department regulations shall require social services contracts to include service performance standards which shall be reviewed and revised on a regular basis. If these performance standards are not met for two consecutive years, a request for proposals pursuant to the department regulations shall be required. Contracts which meet the definition of social services contracts shall not be subject to the provisions in this article applicable to those professional/technical services contracts and intergovernmental agreements, but shall be subject only to the provisions in this article applicable to social services agreements. City Council approval of social services contracts is required as set out in § 5-5-19 of this article.
