ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 09-2015 — A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND
BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS ADOPTING COMMON CONSTRUCTION WAGE RATES
FOR PUBLIC WORKS PROJECTS ESTIMATED TO COST MORE THAN $175 000 IN 2015
Mr. Eric Horvath, Director of Public Works, stated that Mayor Pete Buttigieg requested the
Board of Public Works ratify the resolution regarding the City's support of common construction
wage rates for Public Work's projects in light of the impending State Legislature repealing the
law regarding such. This action is in recognition of the value of a skilled labor force being paid
fair wages and benefits and support of continuing the trade's apprenticeship programs. Mr. Gilot
thanked Mr. Horvath and Mayor Pete for getting right on this issue in view of the pending state
legislation to repeal the "prevailing construction wage" law. He stated the wages and benefits on
public infrastructure projects apply to union and non -union contractors alike and it is important
to provide continuity of good public policy in the City of South Bend that maintains respect for
fair wages for the workers who construct the (Water, Wastewater, Sewers, Curbs, Walks and
Roads) building blocks of civilization in our City. Mr. Gilot stated the Board will honor Mayor
Pete's request today, and noted he fully supports it as the right thing to do. Mr. Gilot noted that
many of the Public Works facilities in South Bend are lasting 20, 50, even 100 years and he can't
see how a race to the bottom on wages and benefits for the skilled trades providing the
workmanship that help produce these impressive service lives builds a better future. He added
that training in the Guild Hall model of novice, apprentice, journeyman and master of trades has
been critical to passing skills to build things from generation to generation, and we are doing the
right thing by upholding wages and benefits that are critical to preserving that institutional
capacity of skilled construction trades education.
Upon a motion made by David Relos, seconded by Patrick Henthorn and carried, the following
Resolution was adopted by the Board of Public Works:

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS

WHEREAS, the State of Indiana House of Representatives recently passed House Bill
1019 which would repeal Indiana Code §5-16-7-1, et seq, which is commonly known as the state's
common construction wage statute; and
WHEREAS, the Saint Joseph Valley Building Trades Council is an independent
organization representing Indiana's construction unions that has conducted surveys of the labor
