About this file

This is a Fines and Penalties Chart document from the City of New Haven, Connecticut, approved by the Board of Aldermen (BOA) for fiscal year 2024-2025, outlining enforcement penalties under the Commission on Equal Opportunities for compliance violations on construction contracts. The document establishes monetary penalties for various contractor infractions including failure to attend pre-award conferences ($3,000 or 2% of contract amount), late submission of certified or living wage payroll reports ($1,000 per week or 1% of contract amount weekly, whichever is greater), missing or incorrectly completed daily reports ($750 per violation), and violations of maximum effort requirements for minority, female, and resident participation goals ($2,000 or 1% of contract amount per week of violation). Penalties escalate for repeated violations, such as when three or more subcontractors fail to meet for a pre-award conference ($4,000 per subcontractor) or when payroll reports remain overdue for eight weeks ($1,000 per week for the ninth and subsequent weeks or 1% of contract amount, whichever is greater). Penalties are assessed against responsible contractors at all tiers, from subcontractors through the general contractor.

The fines and penalties structure applies to construction projects in New Haven, including the Environmental Remediation of 198 River Street contract, a multi-phase project involving demolition, environmental remediation, excavation, retaining wall construction, and site improvements. The penalties serve as enforcement mechanisms for compliance with the city's certified and living wage requirements, workforce diversity goals, and administrative reporting obligations. All violations are referenced under ordinance sections 17-201(15) and are charged to the responsible parties' companies or contractors. The document was adopted by Mayor Justin Elicker and establishes clear financial consequences to ensure contractor compliance with city labor standards and equal opportunity employment requirements.
