Law

Housing Department would have to require public housing agencies to post contract details on their own websites.
Disclosures would include what goods or services were bought, the vendor, and when the contract was put out for bids.
Agencies would also have to post the bids and quotes they asked for, plus name the official who requested the contract.
The goal is to make public housing spending easier for residents, reporters, and watchdogs to review.
Housing Department would have up to 1 year after the law passes to put this requirement in place.
