or estimated contract amount, or five thousand dollars ($5,000.00), whichever is less. Said

the protest is resolved either informally or by formal City Council action, unless the City

continuance of the bid solicitation process or the contract award process without delay in
order to avoid an immediate and serious danger to the public health, safety, or welfare.
