The Local Agency Public Construction Act authorizes job order contracting for school districts until January 1, 2022. The act restricts job order contracting to school districts that have entered into a project labor agreement or agreements, as defined, that will apply to all public works in excess of $25,000 undertaken by the school district through at least December 31, 2021, regardless of what contracting procedure is used to award that work. The act excludes any architect, engineer, or consultant retained by the school district to assist in the development of the job order contract documents from participation in the preparation of a bid with any job order contractor. The act requires job order contractors to submit a questionnaire to the school district containing specified information verified under oath. This bill would revise that restriction to restrict job order contracting under the act to school districts that have entered into a project labor agreement or agreements that will apply to all public works awarded through job order contracting and to all other public works that exceed a monetary threshold set by the school district. The bill would additionally exclude an architect, engineer, or consultant retained to assist the school district in the development of the job order contract documents from bidding. The bill would also exclude contractors retained to assist the school district from bidding or participating in the preparation of a bid with any job order contractor. The bill would authorize job order contracting for community college districts in a manner similar to that authorized by existing law for school districts, with modifications that parallel those proposed above for school districts, until January 1, 2022. The bill would restrict job order contracting pursuant to the bill to community college districts that have entered into a project labor agreement or agreements, as defined, that will apply to all public works awarded through job order contracting and to all other public works of the community college district that exceed a monetary threshold set by the community college district through at least December 31, 2021, regardless of what contracting procedure is used to award that work. The bill would require job order contractors to submit a questionnaire to the community college districts containing specified information verified under oath. By expanding the crime of perjury, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
