Senate Bill 428 proposes amendments to the current law regarding county public works notice and competitive bidding thresholds. The bill raises the notice threshold from $5,000 to $10,000 and the bidding threshold from $25,000 to $50,000, with provisions for these amounts to be adjusted every five years based on inflation. Additionally, the bill introduces exceptions to the bidding requirements for public works aimed at providing housing for individuals on supervised release and for improvements constructed by private individuals and donated to the county.

The bill also renumbers and amends existing statutes to reflect these changes, including the creation of new subsections that clarify the exceptions to the bidding requirements. Specifically, it states that the new thresholds will take effect on a specified date and will be adjusted every five years according to the U.S. consumer price index. This legislation aims to streamline the bidding process for county public works projects while ensuring that certain types of projects remain exempt from the competitive bidding requirements.
