2012 Alexandria Ordinance 3-3-31.1

This ordinance establishes regulations regarding the required wage rate for public contracts. It stipulates that contractors must pay their employees, assigned to work on city-owned or controlled property, an hourly rate equal to the average poverty threshold for a family of four divided by 2,080, plus the average cost per hour incurred by the employer for health insurance. The wage rate is subject to adjustments based on annual determinations by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
