Hi Kim, Would you be able to give a determination on whether the below type of work would qualify as prevailing wage? I have accumulated details from Allison and Natalie’s emails below on the scope of work in question.

@Allison Ostrovsky if anything is missing please let us know, thanks.

Hi Steven, Natalie (cc’d) and I are working on an RFP that we will be submitting in July. The final item we are waiting on is an email re: the prevailing wage. We have emailed both Kim and Sylvia multiple times (see correspondence below) and have not heard back. If you are able to help us with this request or have a suggestion, we would appreciate it.

Thank you, Allison

Hi, If you are not getting a response from Kim, loop in Steven Hull, he deals directly with Kim and may have a better response.

Keep in mind that we are not accepting RFP requests until July, so that does give you time to receive a determination.

Hi Allison, I haven’t seen the project, but determination needs to be uploaded before you submit it for review. Is there any part of the scope that would involve installation (hanging art etc)?

The deadline to post solicitations for this fiscal year has expired, please release it into workflow after July 1.

We have an RFP that we need to post ASAP and in order to do so we need an email from you letting us know whether or not prevailing wage will be required. This RFP is for organizations, arts and cultural producers, collectives, groups, and individuals that are interested in collaborating with the City and artists to create and implement art projects or events in the city of Santa Monica as part of its Art of Recovery (AoR) grant initiative.

If you’re able to respond today, that would be very helpful.
