About this file

This is a compliance checklist document issued by Louisville Metro Government pursuant to Louisville Metro Codified Ordinance (LMCO) Section 112.30, which implements a "ban the box" hiring policy prohibiting vendors and contractors from inquiring about applicants' prior criminal history on initial employment applications. The ordinance applies to all vendors seeking business with Louisville Metro Government and requires that criminal history policies be incorporated into contract award evaluation criteria. The City retains authority to deny, rescind, revoke, terminate, or decline to renew contracts with vendors failing to comply with these standards. This checklist applies to the Street Sweeper Repair Services contract opportunity, which involves Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government Fleet Services seeking proposals for repairs to 3-wheel sweepers, compact sweepers, and 4-wheel truck-mounted street sweeping equipment in Kentucky.

The checklist identifies seven exceptions to the ban the box requirement where vendors may inquire about criminal history: positions involving transfer and handling of cash exceeding $500 or major fiduciary responsibilities; positions with access to confidential information such as social security numbers, bank account information, or credit card information; positions involving unsupervised access to children under 16, developmentally disabled persons, or vulnerable adults; positions with unsupervised access to residents' homes; positions required by law to conduct criminal history inquiries; positions prohibited by federal, state, or local law from hiring individuals with felony convictions; and sole source contracts. Contractors must certify compliance with LMCO 112.30 by having an authorized official sign the checklist and indicate whether any applicable exceptions apply to their organization.
