2019 House Bill 4969

Allow some road contracts to not go to lowest bidder

Introduced in the House

Sept. 12, 2019

Introduced by Rep. Tenisha Yancey (D-1)

To no longer require state and local road agencies to award road project contracts to the lowest bidder, and instead allow them to give the work to company that charges more if officials deem it to be “responsive and responsible,” and if in their opinion it provides “the best value”.

Referred to the Committee on Transportation
