In lieu of any other procedure provided herein, the City Council in its Ordinance of Intention or in the ordinance directing the work to be done, may direct the Board of Public Works, instead of calling for bids and entering into a contract as above provided, to furnish trees and maintain the same during the period specified in the Ordinance of Intention; and said Board of Public Works may, instead of entering into a contract as above provided, issue an interdepartmental purchase order for the furnishing of said trees and the maintenance thereof in said streets upon such terms as may be agreed upon between said Board and the Board of Recreation and Parks Commissioners; provided, however, that such agreement must be approved by a majority vote of the City Council. A separate interdepartmental purchase order shall be placed for each tree planting or tree maintenance improvement. Each such order shall state the date on which said improvement shall be started and it shall continue in force thereafter for the period specified in the Ordinance of Intention; provided, however, that any such interdepartmental purchase order may run to the end of the next fiscal year and be renewed at that time for the balance of the period upon the same rates, terms and conditions as the original.
