Amend HB 628 by adding the following appropriately numbered SECTIONS to the bill and renumbering the remaining SECTIONS of the bill accordingly:
SECTION ____. Section 791.011, Government Code, is amended by adding Subsection (h-1) to read as follows:
(h-1) In this subsection, "roofing materials or services" includes materials or services for repair or replacement of a roof. An interlocal contract between a governmental entity and a purchasing cooperative may not be used to purchase roofing materials or services from a person who provided consulting services to the cooperative on the contract, including providing specifications for bids on the contract. This prohibition also applies to:
(1) a person that is an agent, subsidiary, or parent company of the person who consulted with the cooperative; or
(2) a person related in the second degree of consanguinity or affinity to a person who consulted with the cooperative.
SECTION ____. The change in law made by this Act to Section 791.011, Government Code, applies only to an interlocal contract or an amendment to, supplement to, or waiver of a provision of a contract made on or after the effective date of this Act. An interlocal contract or an amendment to, supplement to, or waiver of a provision of a contract made before the effective date of this Act is governed by the law in effect when the contract or amendment, supplement, or waiver was made, and the former law is continued for that purpose.
