Doing Business with the District

The District purchases a variety of goods and services, most of which are purchased through a competitive procurement process. As a municipal government it is our responsibility to ensure that tax dollars are spent in a transparent, responsible, and fair manner while ensuring the maximum benefit for each tax dollar spent.

The District's Procurement Policy can assist you in understanding how the District does business.
