Local Agency Public Construction Act: internet website posting.
- Requires local agencies to post construction payment details online within 10 days of payment.
- Exempts construction contracts valued below $25,000 from posting requirements.
- Prohibits agencies from withholding payments if they fail to post required payment information.
Assembly Member Chen's proposal to expand construction payment transparency requirements to local agencies mirrors existing state-level practices by requiring local agencies to post detailed payment information on their websites within 10 days of disbursement. The measure applies to construction contracts valued at $25,000 or more.
Under the proposed requirements, local agencies maintaining websites must publish specific details about each construction payment, including the project name, contractor information, payment date, identifying numbers, and payment amount. The bill establishes consequences for non-compliance by preventing agencies that fail to post required information from withholding retention proceeds from remaining payments.
The measure includes provisions for state reimbursement to local agencies for costs associated with implementing these new requirements, subject to review by the Commission on State Mandates. This addresses the bill's classification as a state-mandated local program while maintaining consistency between state and local construction payment disclosure practices.
