AI Summary
- Jointure commissions would be permitted to provide transportation services to local school districts using school buses they own or lease without going through the public bidding process
- Currently, jointure commissions must follow public bidding requirements when providing transportation to school districts that were not members as of January 1, 2004
- The bill amends P.L.2005, c.84 to treat jointure commissions the same as local school districts that use their own buses, which are already exempt from bidding requirements
- Jointure commissions providing transportation with their own buses would still be prohibited from preparing bid specifications and charging fees above bid prices when participating in competitive bidding situations
- The change is intended to allow jointure commissions to provide transportation services in a more cost-effective manner
