Senate Bill 229 |
Senate Author: West |
|
Effective: 6-19-09 |
House Sponsor: Callegari |
Previous law restricted the authority for a local government to use the design-build procurement method for civil works projects before September 1, 2009, to a governmental entity with a population of 500,000 or more and would have authorized a local governmental entity with a population of more than 100,000 to use this procurement method only during the period beginning September 1, 2009, and ending August 31, 2011. Senate Bill 229 amends the Local Government Code to remove these restrictions, authorizing any local governmental entity with a population of more than 100,000 to use the design-build procurement method at any time.
