Blanket purchase orders

Official statutory text

A. A municipality, county or school district may issue a

order is specified in the order and approved by the governing board;

or

2. The repair of county equipment, machinery or vehicles when

the estimated cost of repairs is greater than Five Thousand Dollars

($5,000.00). The maximum authorized amount of a blanket purchase

order may be increased to cover unforeseen expenses. A written

purchase order prior to payment.

B. Blanket purchase orders shall be prepared, filed, and

encumbered in the manner provided for purchase orders and as
