About this file

This file contains a policy certification document from the Louisville Metro Government establishing compliance requirements under Louisville Metro Codified Ordinance (LMCO) Section 112.30, which prohibits vendors from engaging in discriminatory hiring practices against persons with prior criminal convictions. The certification applies to the Golf Course Mower procurement opportunity issued by Metro Parks & Recreation in Kentucky, which seeks bids for multiple Trimax Snake S3 320 golf course mowing units or comparable equipment. Vendors responding to this procurement must affirm compliance with the "ban the box" policy, which prohibits asking about criminal history on initial employment applications unless otherwise required by state or federal law.

The LMCO Section 112.30 certification identifies seven specific exceptions where criminal history inquiries are permitted, including positions involving cash handling exceeding $500, access to confidential information, unsupervised contact with minors or vulnerable populations, unsupervised access to residential homes, positions required by law, positions prohibited by federal, state, or local law from hiring individuals with felony convictions, and sole source contracts. The certification requires the contractor's authorized official to sign and date the document, indicating either compliance with the ban the box practice or identification of applicable exceptions. Compliance with these standards is established as part of the evaluation criteria for awarding City contracts, and the City retains authority to deny, rescind, revoke, terminate, or not renew any contract for vendor non-compliance.
