CA Pub Res Code § 7059 (2017)  

At the time and place fixed in the resolution for the meeting, all sealed proposals which have been received shall in public session be opened, examined, and recorded by the governing body of the city, and the property shall be leased to, or the agreement shall be made and entered into with, the highest responsible bidder in the judgment of the governing body. The governing body may, however, should it deem such action for the best public interest, at any time reject any and all bids and withdraw the property from lease or contract.

As used in this section, governing body of a city means the city council, or other city board or agency having jurisdiction by charter or law over the property involved.
