Resolution #2012-4 Competitive Bid Limits

Under current law, which was last amended in 2007, cities and towns must ask for competitive bids on construction contracts and equipment and supply purchases that exceed $50,000.  These limits add costs and complications to projects and make it more difficult to do business with local contractors and suppliers.

RecommendationMLCT will support legislation to increase the competitive bid limit for municipal governments to $100,000.
