RESOLUTION NO. 4177
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON, MAKING A
DETERMINATION TO USE A JOB ORDER CONTRACT FOR PUBLIC WORKS
PROJECTS.
WHEREAS, the traditional public works process for contracting for public works projects
is time consuming and costly as it requires separate contracting actions for each small project;
and
WHEREAS, pursuant to RCW 39.10.420(3) (Job order procedure — Which public bodies
may use — Authorized use), public bodies may use a job order contract for public works
projects when a determination is made;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON, DOES
RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION I. The above recitals are found to be true and correct in all respects.
SECTION II. The City Council now makes a determination that, consistent with RCW
39.10.420(3), the City of Renton's use of job order contracts will benefit the public by providing
an effective means of reducing the total lead-time and cost for the construction of public works
projects for repair and renovation required at public facilities through the use of unit price
books and work orders by eliminating time-consuming, costly aspects of the traditional public
works process, which requires separate contracting actions for each small project and
authorizes its use by City staff.
