BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Subchapter D, Chapter 392, Local Government | ||
Code, is amended by adding Section 392.0566 to read as follows: | ||
Sec. 392.0566. PROCUREMENT PROCEDURES FOR CERTAIN | ||
MUNICIPAL HOUSING AUTHORITIES. Notwithstanding any other law, a | ||
municipal housing authority described by Section 392.0162 is | ||
required to comply with competitive procurement procedures | ||
applicable to municipal housing authorities only when making a | ||
purchase requiring the expenditure of an amount that is more than | ||
the simplified acquisition threshold as defined by the Federal | ||
Acquisition Regulation (48 C.F.R. Section 2.101) or a successor | ||
regulation. | ||
SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act applies only | ||
to a purchase made on or after the effective date of this Act. A | ||
purchase made before the effective date of this Act is governed by | ||
the law as it existed immediately before the effective date of this | ||
Act, and that law is continued in effect for that purpose. | ||
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2023. |
