(a) Whenever formal bidding is necessary by reason of the fact that the probable amount involved will be the amount set forth in Section 6.14 of the City Charter, or more, the Purchasing Agent shall prepare or cause to be prepared specifications for the articles or services required and shall advertise the requirements of the City in accordance with the City Charter and State law.
(b) The annual appropriation ordinance shall be sufficient authority for the expenditure without the passage of any supplementary or specific ordinance by Council. If, however, the contemplated purchase has not been included in the annual appropriation ordinance, a supplementary appropriation ordinance shall be required.
