STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30346 / S1083
Under current Idaho law, when political subdivisions contemplate an expenditure to purchase or lease personal
property or procure services, they must solicit no less than three bids or quotes if a purchase exceeds certain
monetary thresholds. This legislation maintains all protections for Idaho taxpayers in the public bidding process
and makes adjustments for inflation in the personal property procurement process.
FISCAL NOTE
This legislation would have no impact on the general fund because it only changes when political subdivisions
must submit procurement of personal property or services to bid.
