(A) When the purchasing agent determines that:
(1) It is either not practicable or not advantageous to purchase certain types of supplies by sealed competitive bidding; and
(2) Receiving proposals is the preferred method for purchasing types of supplies, as that is determined from time to time by the Board of Public Works and Safety.
(B) Then in that event the Purchasing Agent may make a request for proposals as provided in the Purchasing Policies of the city as adopted by the Board of Works.
