Assembly Bill 152 amends the existing law regarding the bid requirements for the publication and printing of county board proceedings, notices, and advertisements specifically in counties with a population of 250,000 or more. The bill stipulates that only those counties that not only have a population of 250,000 or more but also have at least two English newspapers published daily are required to direct the county clerk to invite proposals for such publications. This change aims to clarify the conditions under which the county board must seek bids for these services.

The specific legal language amended in the bill includes the insertion of the phrase "and that have at least 2 English newspapers published daily" into the statute. This addition ensures that the requirement for inviting proposals is contingent upon both the population size and the availability of multiple daily English newspapers, thereby potentially streamlining the process for counties that do not meet these criteria.
