HB 2869 Oregon House · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to services provided by school districts.

HB 2869 requires Oregon school districts to withhold a portion of payment (retainage) from contractors until they complete services mandated by state or federal law. This applies to contracts for services like safety programs or educational support that schools are legally required to provide. The bill mandates that school districts include this withhold requirement in all procurement documents for such services and must actually retain the payment until work is finished and accepted. It ensures contractors complete their obligations before receiving full payment, protecting school districts from incomplete service delivery.
