About this file

This file is a Fines and Penalties Chart approved by the Board of Aldermen for the City of New Haven, Connecticut, for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, established by the Commission on Equal Opportunities (CEO) to enforce compliance with construction contract requirements including certified and living wage ordinances, pre-award conference attendance, workforce reporting, and minority, female, and resident participation goals. The chart details violations and corresponding penalties applicable to general contractors, subcontractors, and all hiring tiers on construction projects within the jurisdiction. Key violations include failure to attend mandatory pre-award conferences ($3,000 or 2% of construction contract amount, whichever is greater), late certified or living wage weekly payroll reports ($1,000 per week or 1% of contract amount per week, whichever is greater), missing or incorrectly completed daily employee reports ($750 per violation), and violations of maximum effort requirements to reach minority, female, and resident participation goals ($2,000 or 1% of contract amount per week, whichever is greater). Multiple violations trigger escalated penalties; for example, when three or more subcontractors fail to attend a pre-award conference, the charge increases to $4,000 per violation per subcontractor against each hiring contractor at all tiers, including the general contractor.

The penalties are assessed against responsible parties at all contractor tiers—subcontractors, hiring contractors, and general contractors—to ensure accountability throughout the supply chain. The chart, adopted by Mayor Justin Elicker and based on City General Statutes 17-201(15), establishes a standardized enforcement mechanism for the city's commitment to equitable workforce participation and wage compliance on publicly funded construction projects. These penalties apply directly to any construction contract subject to the city's ordinances, including the On Call Locksmith Services contract being procured by the New Haven Public School District, which requires bidders to comply with all CEO requirements and attend mandatory pre-award conferences before award.
