What it does

Existing law makes it unlawful for various local entities, including cities, counties, community college districts, reclamation districts, and school districts, to split or separate into smaller work orders or projects any work, project, service, or purchase for the purpose of evading laws requiring public works to be done by contract after competitive bidding. Existing law makes that act a misdemeanor if the work order or project is for a city or county.
