TEXAS HB 1295

House Bill 1295 requires all vendors awarded district solicitations by the Board of Trustees to complete a Certificate of Interested Parties form. Vendors are required to complete an online form through the Texas Ethics Commission in order for the district to process a contract or purchase order for products or services from awarded vendors. The link below provides additional information on how this process will take place. This must be done before doing business with the vendor.

It is recommended that vendors watch the video related to submitting a Form 1295 at this website. After the vendor completes the electronic form, they will be prompted to print the form and return it to the Purchasing Department, by mail or via the electronic method assigned and will be filed with the contract.

The Purchasing Department will complete the required electronic acknowledgement of the vendor’s 1295 form.

It is critical that these steps are followed in a timely manner. The District’s Purchasing Department has only 30 days to complete the process with the Texas Ethics Commission after the approval of the board. It is critical that these steps are followed in a timely manner.

PLEASE NOTE:

The Form 1295 must be completed for every contract entered into with Belton ISD that will be awarded by the board.

Failure to comply with HB 1295 will prevent the District from conducting business with the vendor.

If you have questions, please contact Tammy Shannon, the Director of Purchasing.
