This bill exempts energy savings performance contracts from the requirements of the local government public works construction law.  Counties will still be required to follow the procedures established in the energy savings performance contract statute, but certain provisions that were not intended to apply to county government have been removed (i.e., requiring the use of the State's prequalified list of providers). Counties will be required to issue a request for proposals to at least two qualified energy service providers, as well as advertise the contract opportunity by posting it at the board of commissioners' office and on the county's website, if one exists.
