The appropriate local governmental official or agency receiving goods or services must approve or disapprove a bill from a vendor or contractor for goods or services furnished the local governmental agency within 30 days after the receipt of such bill or within 30 days after the date on which the goods or services were received, whichever is later.

Written notice shall be mailed to the vendor or contractor immediately if a bill is disapproved. (Source: P.A. 94-972, eff. 7-1-07.)
