SB 1020 (Perry), SB 976 (Perry) and HB 635 (Maggard) prohibit local building code administrators, inspectors and fire safety marshals from making changes to certain building plans under specified circumstances once the local building department has approved and sealed the plans. 

In SB 976 only, the bill prohibits any governmental entity from requiring participation in a paid subscription service to access solicitations of competitive bids or proposals which must be publicly advertised. The bill requires that such solicitations be available on the publicly accessible website of the applicable governmental entity after the solicitation has been advertised. (Branch)
