Editor's note— Ord. No. 3610-C.S., § 1, adopted December 9, 2014 and effective January 9, 2015, amended the Code by the addition of §§ 8-3.101—8-3.103; however, said provisions have been redesignated as §§ 8-3.601—8-3.603, at the editor's discretion, for purposes of maintaining Code format and for the purposes of allowing future expansion of the Code.

Except as provided in Sections 8-3.602 and 8-3.603, and notwithstanding any conflicting provision of any City Council resolution adopted prior to the effective date of this Ordinance, the City shall require the payment of prevailing wages for all of its public works projects to the same extent and in the same manner such wages would be required to be paid, if the City was subject to the requirements imposed upon contracts entered into by general law cities pursuant to the provisions of Article 2, Chapter 1, Part 7, Division 2 of the California Labor Code, as those provisions may be amended from time to time. Any notice inviting bids for such public works projects shall include notification of the provisions of this section.
