Relating to procurement procedures for certain municipal housing authorities.
HB 4913 requires specific municipal housing authorities (as defined in Section 392.0162 of the Local Government Code) to use competitive bidding for purchases exceeding the federal simplified acquisition threshold (defined in 48 C.F.R. §2.101). This applies only to purchases made on or after its effective date, September 1, 2025, and does not affect prior purchases. The bill modifies procurement rules to align with federal standards for larger expenditures by these housing authorities.
