Comments: Opposed by NJSLOM. Contradicts current executive exemptions to OPRA. Under current LPCL this would contribute to violations of law such as "bid rigging". Following is a statement issued by the New Jersey State League of Municipalities ("NJSLOM") on Friday, October 31st: "A-947, which would require municipalities, counties and local authorities to release the names, upon request, of all parties who have received bid documents prior to the bid opening once three or more bid packets have been obtained, was released from the Senate Community and Urban Affairs Committee on Monday, October 27th. The League of Municipalities strongly opposes A-947 for several reasons. First and foremost, we are concerned that the release of the bidders names prior to the receipt of bids could lead to collusion and bid rigging. We are concerned with the benchmark of three or more bids before the release of the bidders list. Finally, we are concerned that the bill will require a municipality to create and maintain a record. We strongly believe that the public bidding process should be open and competitive. The names of bidders are routinely released after a bid opening. We are troubled with releasing the list prior to a bid opening because it has the potential to limit competition which can drive up costs for taxpayers and create an environment that could possibly lead to bid rigging and collusion. A-947 now awaits consideration by the full Senate. We anticipate that the bill will be on the Senate s November 13 agenda. Please contact your State Senator and urge them to vote No on A-947."
