About this file
This is a policy certification document issued by the Louisville Metro Government in Kentucky that establishes hiring practice requirements for vendors seeking contracts with the city. The document outlines the provisions of Louisville Metro Codified Ordinance (LMCO) Section 112.30, which prohibits vendors from including criminal history inquiries on initial employment applications unless otherwise required by state or federal law. The certification applies to the establishment of a Price Contract for repairs of Ditch Witch and Bandit brand equipment, including mini skid steers, woodchippers, and full-size skid steers with attachments. Bidders responding to this contract opportunity must be certified to perform warranty repairs and general repairs on the equipment they propose to service. All vendors must affirm their compliance with the "ban the box" hiring policy as a condition of contract award.
The certification identifies seven exceptions to the ban the box requirements, including positions involving the transfer and handling of cash exceeding $500, access to confidential personal information, unsupervised access to children or vulnerable populations, unsupervised access to residents' homes, positions required by law to conduct background checks, federal or state law restrictions on hiring individuals with felony convictions, and sole source contracts with Louisville Metro Government. Responding vendors must indicate which, if any, exceptions apply to their organization by checking the corresponding boxes on the certification form. The vendor's authorized official must sign and date the certification, acknowledging understanding of and agreement with LMCO 112.30(D)(2) provisions, which establish that criminal history policies serve as evaluation criteria in the contract award process. The city retains authority to deny, rescind, revoke, terminate, or decline to renew any contract with a vendor failing to comply with these standards.
