Prince George's County Minority Construction Contractors Special Virtual Meeting
ATTN: PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY MINORITY CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTORS.
PLEASE JOIN ME ON MONDAY, OCTOBER 9, 2023 AT 6PM-7PM FOR A SPECIAL VIRTUAL MEETING TO UPDATE YOU ON PROPOSED COUNTY POLICIES THAT MAY AFFECT YOUR INDUSTRY.

Monday, Oct. 9, 2023
6:00PM – 7:00 PM
Zoom Meeting

Items for discussion include:

-The Superintendent and Board of Education have proposed the possibility of a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) being included on Phase II of the PGCPS Public-Private-Partnership (P3) to build 8 new schools. A PLA may shut out most County-based Minority Business Enterprises (CMBEs) from the project. See the Black Business Community Letter of Concern submitted last December here: https://tinyurl.com/black-business-p3-letter

-Some of my Council Colleagues have proposed Council Bill 91 2023, which would impose a requirement for a PLA on any county construction project $10 million or greater in value. This could shut out most CMBEs from such projects. The Council will consider this proposal in the next week or two. Here is a copy of the proposed legislation: https://princegeorgescountymd.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=12306903&GUID=4E65BB72-854E-4CA1-8AF6-DF664D7CCA3E 

-A Responsible Contractors Bill is pending before the County Council (Council Bill 1 2023). Draft 1 of the bill would impose onerous new certification requirements on the CMBE community to do business with the County on construction projects. It is my understanding that the bill is being amended. Here is a copy of Draft 1 of the bill: https://princegeorgescountymd.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=11483259&GUID=F91C90C8-2F8A-42FB-987C-3709799E0376
