Subject to the limitations of this section or other applicable law, any type of contract which will promote the best interests of the City may be used, except a cost plus a percentage of cost contract is prohibited. A cost reimbursement contract may be used only when a determination is made in writing by the Mayor, City Administrator, or the department head, that such contract is likely to be less costly to the City than any other type, or that it is impracticable to obtain the supplies, services or construction required except under such a contract.
