The Mayor, Clerk-Treasurer, Police Chief, Fire Chief, Street Commissioner and Recreation Director are hereby authorized in the interim between Council meetings, to direct the Village Clerk to make purchases for their respective departments in an amount not in excess of two thousand dollars ($2,000). All purchases in excess of two thousand dollars ($2,000) but not over five thousand dollars ($5,000) shall be approved by the Finance Committee. If the Finance Committee disapproves of any such expenditure, said disapproval shall be sent to Council for review and final determination of said purchase. All purchases in excess of five thousand dollars ($5,000) shall be reviewed first by the Finance Committee and sent to Council with a recommendation, whether approved or rejected immediately following the Finance Committee meeting. Final approval for all purchases in excess of five thousand dollars ($5,000) shall be approved by Council. Due to the fact that Council meets once a month, purchase orders may be processed by the Clerk-Treasurer only when a majority of members required for each individual purchase have contacted the Clerk-Treasurer in such a manner that the Clerk-Treasurer can document the contact.
