Official statutory text

Upon determining that immediate remedial measures to avert or alleviate damage to property, or to repair or restore damaged or destroyed property, of the district are necessary in order to insure that the facilities of the district are available to serve the transportation needs of the general public, and upon determining that available remedial measures, including procurement in compliance with Sections 20221, 20222, and 20223, are inadequate, the general manager may authorize the expenditure of money previously appropriated specifically by the board for the direct purchases of goods and services, without observance of the provisions of those sections.

The general manager shall, after any such expenditure, submit to the board a full report explaining the necessity for the action.
