BILL NUMBER:S7549 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the labor law, in relation to applying the prevailing wage laws to certain projects on privately owned property PURPOSE: Applies the prevailing wage laws to certain projects on privately owned property. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section one amends section 220 of the labor law by adding a new subdivision 10. Section two is the effective date. JUSTIFICATION: The New York State Labor Law (Article 8, Section 220) requires that "prevailing wages" and "supplemental benefits" be paid on public works construction projects. This bill would apply the law to certain larger, primarily upper-income residential projects with more than 80 units that receive public funds or financial assistance. This legislation does not apply to primarily affordable housing projects of any size. This legislation also does not apply to residential projects involving 80 or less units.
