The Board of Trustees may on recommendation of the Village Coordinator of ESDA, authorize any purchase or contracts necessary to place the Village in a position to combat effectively any disaster resulting from the explosion of any nuclear or other bomb or missile, and to protect the public health and safety, protect property, and provide emergency assistance to victims in the case of such disaster, or from man-made or natural disaster.
In the event of enemy caused or other disaster, the Village Coordinator of ESDA is authorized, on behalf of the Village, to procure such services, supplies, equipment or material as may be necessary for such purposes, in view of the emergency without regard to the statutory procedures or formalities normally prescribed by law pertaining to Village contracts or obligations, as authorized by “The Illinois Emergency Services and Disaster Agency Act of 1975", as amended; provided, that if the Village President is available at such time, the Coordinator shall act subject to the direction and restrictions imposed by said Village President.
