About this file

This is a Budget Fines and Penalties Chart for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 approved by the Board of Aldermen (BOA) for the City of New Haven, Connecticut, under the Commission on Equal Opportunities oversight. The chart establishes financial penalties and fines for compliance violations related to construction contracts, specifically addressing failures in pre-award conference attendance, certified and living wage payroll reporting, daily reporting requirements, and diversity participation goals. The document outlines violation categories including non-attendance at mandatory pre-award conferences ($3,000 or 2% of construction contract amount), late certified or living wage weekly payroll reports ($1,000 per week or 1% of contract amount), missing or incorrectly filled daily 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). Penalties are assessed against subcontractors, hiring contractors, and general contractors across all tiers depending on the violation type and circumstances.

The penalty structure is designed to enforce compliance with municipal construction contract requirements under ordinance C.G.S. 17-201(15). Penalties escalate based on violation severity and repetition; for example, when Certified or Living Wage Weekly Payroll Reports exceed eight weeks overdue, the fine increases to $1,000 per week for the ninth and subsequent weeks. Sixth and subsequent site visit violations at the same project result in increased penalties charged to all tiers of hiring contractors. The chart applies to all construction projects funded by various city sources and represents the City of New Haven's enforcement mechanisms for ensuring contractor compliance with established municipal standards for labor practices, wage reporting, and diversity participation objectives.
