The Department of Purchasing actively promotes and documents small, minority, handicapped, and women-owned business purchases. The Department of Purchasing is responsible for maintaining and soliciting from a bid list of small, minority, handicapped, and women-owned businesses and should include at least one minority vendor per bid.

Award of contract shall be conditioned upon the bidders satisfaction of these requirements.
