Texas HB4084 amends the Local Government Code to change the threshold for competitive bidding and requires municipalities to contact historically.

Texas HB4084 modifies the Local Government Code to lower the threshold for competitive bidding from $100,000 to $50,000 for municipal contracts. It also mandates that for expenditures between $3,000 and $100,000, municipalities must contact at least two historically underutilized businesses. This requirement is based on information from the comptroller and exempts municipalities if no such businesses are listed in their county. The changes apply to purchases made after the Act's effective date of September 1, 2025.
