Changes provisions governing testing of community water system hydrant inspections

Maddy summaryThis bill requires community water systems to implement a hydrant inspection program that includes annual testing, repairs for broken hydrants, and a plan to flush hydrants and dead-end main lines. The law also mandates that these systems maintain records of their inspections and tests for six years and map the location of every hydrant using a geographic information system within five years of August 28, 2020. However, the requirements do not apply to state parks, large cities, specific charter counties, or large public utility companies.

Establishes rules to govern contracts between contractors, subcontractors, and other parties to construction contracts

Maddy summaryThis bill establishes new rules for construction contracts in Missouri involving owners, contractors, and subcontractors on private projects. It defines specific terms like "construction contract" and "work" to include various services and materials used in building or maintaining properties. The legislation prohibits contract clauses that allow parties to withhold payments beyond disputed amounts, prevents contractors from stopping work due to non-payment, and bans agreements requiring work to continue without payment. Additionally, the law declares any contract terms attempting to waive these rights as unenforceable and against public policy.
