Bill overview
This bill allows local government contracting agencies (like counties and municipalities) to create joint venture and set-aside programs. These programs aim to encourage participation from minority-owned, women-owned, and veteran-owned businesses in public contracts. Specifically, it amends existing law to permit the designation of entire contracts or portions of contracts to these businesses, or to joint ventures comprised of such businesses. The bill also requires agencies to report on their efforts to meet set-aside goals.
