relating to an interlocal contract between a governmental entity | ||
and a purchasing cooperative to purchase roofing materials or | ||
services. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Section 791.011, Government Code, is amended by | ||
adding Subsections (h-1) and (h-2) to read as follows: | ||
(h-1) In this subsection, "roofing materials or services" | ||
includes materials or services for repair or replacement of a roof. | ||
An interlocal contract between a governmental entity and a | ||
purchasing cooperative may not be used to purchase roofing | ||
materials or services from a person who provided consulting | ||
services to the cooperative on the contract, including providing | ||
specifications for bids on the contract. This prohibition also | ||
applies to: | ||
(1) a person that is an agent, subsidiary, or parent | ||
company of the person who consulted with the cooperative; or | ||
(2) a person related in the second degree of | ||
consanguinity or affinity to a person who consulted with the | ||
cooperative. | ||
(h-2) The prohibition under Subsection (h-1) does not apply | ||
to a renewal of a contract based on a request for proposal | ||
submitted, or substantially similar to a request for proposal | ||
submitted, before October 1, 2011, if the contract is renewed | ||
before October 1, 2012. This subsection expires October 1, 2012. | ||
SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act to Section | ||
791.011, Government Code, applies only to an interlocal contract or | ||
an amendment to, supplement to, or waiver of a provision of a | ||
contract made on or after the effective date of this Act. An | ||
interlocal contract or an amendment to, supplement to, or waiver of | ||
a provision of a contract made before the effective date of this Act | ||
is governed by the law in effect when the contract or amendment, | ||
supplement, or waiver was made, and the former law is continued for | ||
that purpose. | ||
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect October 1, 2011. |
