AI Summary

  • Amends section 48-914 to require preliminary plans showing location, type, and character of proposed improvements instead of complete plans and specifications before passing a resolution of intention.

  • Adds section 48-967 allowing county improvement districts to use alternative project delivery methods including design-bid-build, construction-manager-at-risk, design-build, and job-order-contracting instead of traditional competitive bidding.

  • Permits design services to be performed by persons selected under the alternate delivery method with compensation included as a project expense, and allows design services to be procured separately if not included in the construction contract.

  • Eliminates sealed bid requirements and the lowest and best bidder award process for alternate delivery method projects, but requires notice of the intent to use an alternate method in the resolution of intention.

  • Requires the contractor to provide 100 percent payment and performance bonds upon district acceptance of a guaranteed maximum price, with assessment recording deferred until after that acceptance.
