Municipal securities can come through the market as a new issue on a competitive or negotiated basis. A competitive underwriting is when broker dealer compete to get bids on a new issue of bonds. The municipal issuer will choose the lowest net total cost to them.

General Obligation bonds are only done on a competitive basis. This is because a G O Bond is backed by tax dollars so the underwriting must be done competitively. Revenue municipal issues can be done negotiated or competitive since their bonds are backed by user revenue and not tax dollars.
