# City Council - 10/6/2026 - Agenda Item N2 - Ratify an Emergency Order for Two Emergency Repairs

The City Council of Oxnard convened on September 25, 2026, to ratify an emergency order and approve a contract with Toro Enterprises for urgent repairs to the city's water system located between 700 and 740 Arcturus Avenue. Due to a water leak and void caused by storm drain infrastructure issues, emergency repairs were necessary to prevent further water loss and infrastructure damage. The council was asked to ratify the Public Works Director's emergency order to dispense with public bidding under Public Contract Code section 22050 and authorize the City Manager to enter into a contract with Toro Enterprises for an amount not to exceed $250,000. The emergency repairs have been completed, and the Public Works Director has declared the emergency terminated. Funding for the repairs will come from the city's fiscal year 2026-2027 water operating fund. The council's approval formalizes the emergency procurement actions taken to restore services and protect public health and safety.
