           São Bernardo do Campo

 

On March 12, 2019, the Executive Body (Poder Executivo Municipal) of São Bernardo do Campo submitted the Proposed Bill to the Municipal Chamber (Câmara Municipal) with the purpose of signing the Contract for the Provision of Public Services between the Municipality, the State of São Paulo, and Sabesp, in order to adjust the current contract to the current legislation. 

 

The contract that enables the Company to provide services to the municipality of São Bernardo was celebrated in December 2003, i.e., prior to the Federal Law No. 11,445 of 2007. Considering that this Law establishes specific rules and conditions to contract basic sanitation services, there is a need to adjust the contract to comply with this legislation.
