CONTRACTS: Provides relative to public contracts and public works. (gov sig) (EN NO IMPACT See Note)
SB 265 is a procedural amendment bill that makes minor wording changes to a larger piece of legislation concerning public contracts and public works. The bill does not introduce new policies or affect anyone directly; instead, it simply replaces the word "said" with "the" and "Such" with "The" in five specific locations within the text. These adjustments are technical corrections intended to improve the clarity and consistency of the language without altering the bill's substantive requirements.
