The Town of Petersburg was working with the South Central Tennessee Development District (SCTDD) to apply for and utilize federal grant monies for various public projects. SCTDD requested that the Town of Petersburg adopt a Procurement Policy for receiving and expending federal funds for various projects where federal funding was being utilized. The Town of Petersburg requested assistance from MTAS to prepare an ordinance to adopt the recommended procurement policy provided as template by SCTDD. MTAS consultants’ Chuck Downham, Municipal Management Consultant, and Tonya Travis, Finance and Accounting Consultant, worked collaboratively to prepare a draft ordinance for consideration by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen to adopt a procurement policy that would only be utilized in the case of projects involving federal funding so as not to conflict with the Town’s adopted purchasing policy. The ordinance was approved by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen to establish a procurement policy for the use of federal funds for projects.
