The Local Agency Public Construction Act requires a bridge and highway district to advertise for contracts in specified publications for all vessel repair, maintenance, and alteration work whenever the estimated expenditure exceeds $20,000 and for all other construction, repair, maintenance, and alteration work and for all insurance purchased by the district if the estimated expenditure exceeds $5,000. The act authorizes a bridge and highway district to contract without advertising or competitive bidding in case of emergency. The act requires a bridge and highway district to comply with specified emergency contracting procedures if the notice for bids to let a contract will not be given. This bill would instead require a bridge and highway district to advertise for contracts for all vessel repair, maintenance, and alteration work if the estimated expenditure exceeds $1,000,000, and for all other construction, repair, maintenance, and alteration work, and all similar work, if the estimated expenditure exceeds $5,000, in at least one newspaper and one trade paper of general circulation, as specified. The bill would also authorize the district, at its discretion, to use informal bidding for a contract for construction, repair, maintenance, and alteration work, and all similar work, with an estimated expenditure that does not exceed $50,000, and for a contract for vessel repair, maintenance, and alteration work that does not exceed $1,000,000, if it enacts an ordinance that governs the selection of contractors, as specified. Existing law requires the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District to award all contracts in excess of $20,000 for the hiring or purchase of equipment, supplies, or materials to the lowest responsible bidder, except that, if the required expenditure exceeds $100,000, the contract may be let, in the district's discretion, to the responsible bidder who submitted a proposal that provides the best value, as specified. The bill would also authorize the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District to contract without competitive bidding with suppliers of goods and services by participating in contracts let by one or more specified public entities and any other entity that expends public funds.
