LB797

Nebraska LB797 increases minimum bidding amount requirements for certain cities and villages.

Nebraska LB797 amends sections 16-321 and 17-568.01 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska to increase minimum bidding amount requirements for cities of the first class, cities of the second class, and villages. The bill mandates that contracts for enlargement or general improvements costing over ninety thirty thousand dollars must be approved by the city council or village board of trustees. It also requires estimates of the cost of labor and material for such contracts to be made by the city engineer or village engineer and submitted to the city council or village board of trustees.
