Introduced by: John J. Bell | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Virginia Public Procurement Act; private contracts; payment of subcontractors. Clarifies certain definitions throughout the Code for consistency between public and private construction contracts. The bill updates the notice required when a general contractor withholds all or a part of the amount invoiced by a subcontractor in a public construction contract and when an owner withholds payment from a general contractor to include language specifically identifying the contractual noncompliance, the dollar amount being withheld, and the lower-tier subcontractor responsible for the contractual noncompliance. This bill is identical to HB 2500.
