Chapter 14.09 — PREVAILING WAGE REQUIREMENTS FOR CITY CONTRACTS INVOLVING PUBLIC

A.

This chapter sets forth the city's prevailing wage policy for contracts entered into by the city for "public works" (as that term is defined herein) that are municipal affairs so as to comply with Labor Code Section 1782. It reflects the city's intent to apply state prevailing wage requirements to contracts entered into by the city involving public works that are municipal affairs.

B.

The city's prevailing wage policy as set forth in Resolution Nos. 61144, 61716, 72518, 71584, and 76242, or any future resolution governing prevailing wages, shall not apply to the extent a contract for a public works is covered by this chapter. The city's prevailing wage policy as set forth in these resolutions or any future resolutions shall continue to apply to all other contracts.

C.

The city's adoption of the prevailing wage requirements in this chapter is done pursuant to the city's home rule authority over such municipal affairs.

(Ord. 29510.)

The definitions set forth in this part shall govern the application and interpretation of this chapter.

(Ord. 29510.)

"City compliance officer" means the city employee, designated by the city manager or the city manager's authorized designee, who has primary responsibility for enforcing the city's prevailing wage ordinance.

"Public works" has the same meaning as is set forth in California Labor Code Sections 1720 through 1720.6, as the state legislature may amend those sections from time to time.
