Small Works Roster

The Small Works Roster may be used, in lieu of advertising, to solicit bids for any public work or improvement estimated to cost less than $200,000.

Effective December 17, 2007, the City of Auburn will be utilizing the Municipal Research and Services Center (MRSC) Small Works Roster. After this date, the City of Auburn will no longer use the City of Lynnwood's Shared Small Works Roster.
