The City Manager is the chief purchasingagent far the City for purchase up to $5,000. <br />We believe the Manager has authorityto delegatethat authorityto staff inembers. The <br />monetary limits on the use of a card are consistentwith the limit of the Manager's purchasing <br />authority. In addition, the City Council has approvedthe use of purchasing cards by City <br />employees as requiredunder M�nnesota Statute section 471382. It is importantto note that the <br />$S,OOO limit on purchases with a purchasing card corresponds with the limit of the payment <br />authority delegated by the Council under section 412.271, subdivision 8, and that there are <br />internal controls for supervisors, department heads, and the Council to review the use of <br />purchasing cards. <br />C�n�lusi�fl <br />It is our opinion that the City complies with the State statutes relating to the <br />disbursementof funds and the State statute relating to the use of credit cards by City <br />employees. <br />Please contactus if you have any further questions or concerns about this matter, <br />T � J F <br />� <br />��Od'C ; <br />Eric L.
