Substitute resolution directing the appropriate City departments to submit to the Common Council annual reports on exemptions from the Small Business Enterprise, Local Business Enterprise and Residents Preference Program participation requirements for City contracts.

Analysis

This resolution directs the Department of Public Works, the Department of Administration, the Department of City Development and any other appropriate City departments, to submit to the Common Council annual reports on exemptions from the Small Business Enterprise, Local Business Enterprise and Residents Preference Program, participation requirements for City contracts.

Body

Whereas, The City, through its contracting function, has a significant impact on local economic activity; and

 

Whereas, It is in the best interests of the city of Milwaukee, its labor force and business community that action be taken to create jobs and to alleviate unemployment in Milwaukee; and

 

Whereas, The Common Council has developed appropriate rules, procedures and regulations for assuring participation of small businesses, local businesses and unemployed or under-employed Milwaukee residents in City contracts through the Small Business Enterprise, Local Business Enterprise  and Residents Preference Programs; and

 

Whereas, Certain exceptions to the requirements of the Small Business, Local Business Enterprise and Residents Preference Programs may occasionally be made by City departments, including the Department of Public Works, the Department of City Development and the Department of Administration; and

 

Whereas, The Common Council desires to remain apprised of the number and dollar value of contracts being exempted from the City’s contract participation requirements; now, therefore, be it

 

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Department of Public Works, the Department of Administration, the Department of City Development and any other appropriate City departments are directed to submit to the Common Council annual reports on exemptions from the Small Business Enterprise, Local Business Enterprise and Residents Preference Program participation requirements for City contracts.
