From the meeting
The Board reaffirmed that no construction may start without Board approval and that delivery methods must follow Texas law. The policy explicitly allows design-bid-build, competitive sealed request for proposals (RFP), construction manager at risk, design-build, cooperative purchase agreements, job order contracts, interlocal agreements, and public-private partnerships. This is a procurement framework signal for future capital work, with the real buying decisions coming when projects are scoped.
