Kansas lawmakers pass bill to raise public bidding threshold for local construction projects, allowing counties to handpick contractors for jobs up to $100,000 without competitive bids. The change aims to speed up essential repairs and ignore inflation, but national trade groups warn it could weaken taxpayer safeguards and protections for workers and small businesses. The bill now heads to the governor for final approval.
