About this file
This is a Permits, License User Fee Update document approved by the Board of Aldermen for the City of New Haven for fiscal year 2024-2025, detailing oversight penalties, fines, and sanctions administered by the Commission on Equal Opportunities for construction contract compliance violations. The document outlines a comprehensive penalty structure applicable to construction projects, including fines for contractors and subcontractors who fail to attend mandatory pre-award conferences ($3,000 or 2% of construction contract amount, whichever is greater), late submission of certified or living wage weekly payroll reports ($1,000 per week or 1% of construction contract amount per week, whichever is greater), and missing or incorrectly completed daily employee reports ($750 per violation). Additional penalties are assessed for repeated violations, with fines escalating to $4,000 per violation when three or more subcontractors fail to attend pre-award conferences, and increasing to $1,000 per week for payroll reports overdue for eight weeks or more. The penalty structure also addresses workforce compliance issues, including violations of minority and resident participation goals, which incur fines of $2,000 or 1% of the respective construction contract amount per week of violation.
The fee structure reflects the City's commitment to enforcing compliance with prevailing wage requirements and equal employment opportunity obligations across all tiers of contractors, from general contractors through subcontractors. Penalties are charged separately against violating entities and all hiring contractors at every tier up to and including the general contractor, creating shared accountability throughout the supply chain. The document specifies that violations related to maximum effort requirements for minority and resident participation goals can extend fines across the entire project work period, with separate charges assessed for each violation occurrence. These administrative penalties serve as enforcement mechanisms to ensure adherence to the City's Living Wage Ordinance and equal opportunities requirements on municipal construction projects.
