WHEREAS, based upon the presentation of staff and the information contained in the

requirements in the event of an emergency, and

circumstance beyond the control of the municipality that either: (a) presents a real immediate
danger to the proper performance of an essential function; or (b) will likely result in material loss
or damage to property, bodily injury or loss of life if immediate action is not taken, and
WHEREAS, the City Council has received the staff report of the Public Works Director
and staff describing the storm sewer emergency brought about by broken 24-inch concrete storm
sewer line; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds and concludes that the immediate restoration of city

The Edmonds City Council hereby authorizes the Mayor and his designees to waive competitive
bidding requirements in order to contract for the restoration/replacement of approximately 65
