SB1827

FIRE DISTRICTS--DESIGN-BUILD

Complete·8/15/25

SB1827 amends Illinois law to allow fire protection districts to enter into design-build contracts.

SB1827 amends the Fire Protection District Act to clarify that competitive bidding provisions do not prohibit fire protection districts from entering into design-build contracts. The bill also modifies the Counties Code and the Illinois Municipal Code to establish procedures for selecting design-build entities through a two-phase process. Phase I evaluates and shortlists entities based on qualifications, while Phase II evaluates technical and cost proposals. The bill specifies criteria for both phases and allows for modifications to the design-build contract after award.
