Existing law, the Local Agency Public Construction Act, sets forth procedures that a local agency is required to follow when procuring certain services or work. The act requires the governing board of any school district and the governing board of any community college district to let contracts for the purchase of, among other things, equipment, materials, or supplies to be furnished, sold, or leased to the district, involving an expenditure of more than $50,000, to the lowest responsible bidder that gives security as the board requires, or else reject all bids. The act also authorizes the governing board of a school district, as described, to use, before December 31, 2030, a best value procurement method for bid evaluation and selection for public projects that exceed $1,000,000.
This bill would additionally authorize the governing board of a community college district to use, before December 31, 2030, a best value procurement method for bid evaluation and selection for public projects that exceed $1,000,000.

The bill would repeal these provisions on January 1, 2031.
