Bill Summary

Relative to the public construction security bond threshold. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Section 29 of Chapter 149 of the General Laws by increasing the public construction security bond threshold from $25,000 to $50,000. This means that for public construction projects costing less than $50,000, the requirement for a security bond would be lifted, potentially making it easier for smaller projects to be undertaken.
