This is a policy certification document from Louisville Metro Government establishing compliance requirements for vendors bidding on city contracts in accordance with Louisville Metro Codified Ordinance (LMCO) Section 112.30. The ordinance prohibits the City and its vendors from implementing discriminatory hiring practices against individuals with prior criminal convictions. The certification applies to the Shawnee Park Asphalt Tennis-Pickleball Courts Renovation project in Louisville, Kentucky, which involves renovation of existing hard surface tennis courts at Shawnee Park, including site work, court construction, fencing, concrete bench footers, utilities, site amenities, grading, and drainage per project plans and specifications.

The certification requires vendors to affirm that initial employment applications do not contain inquiries regarding applicants' prior criminal history unless prohibited by state or federal law. Seven specific exceptions are enumerated, including positions involving cash transfers exceeding $500, access to confidential information, unsupervised access to minors or vulnerable adults, unsupervised access to residents' homes, positions required by law to conduct background checks, sole source contracts, and positions otherwise prohibited by federal, state, or local law. Vendors must indicate which exceptions apply and provide authorized signature, printed name, title, and company legal name on the certification form.

(2) The standards established in this chapter and the criminal history policies shall be a part of the evaluation criteria when awarding City contracts.
