S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 6232 2021-2022 Regular Sessions I N A S S E M B L Y March 10, 2021 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. BICHOTTE HERMELYN -- read once and referred to the Committee on Governmental Operations AN ACT to establish a construction industry advisory council on public contracting reform THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature finds that construction contractors often face significant challenges when bidding and working on public works projects in New York state. Often, the inclusion of onerous or inequitable contract terms and conditions governing issues such as contractor payment, job delays and dispute resolution, which in many cases have been codified into statute or regulation, place an unfair burden on contractors. Furthermore, the legislature finds that many prior, piecemeal attempts to address these inequities through indi- vidual bills have proven unsuccessful, such as S.6906 (2016) and S.5933 (2019), and therefore a more equitable and comprehensive approach is warranted. The legislature also finds that current inefficiencies in the public contracting process are responsible for driving up the cost of construction, making New York a less competitive place to engage in such work in relation to other states, which in turn harms the New York state economy and costs jobs. Therefore, it is the intent of the legislature to establish an inde- pendent advisory council charged with (a) studying the current public contracting process; and (b) adopting recommendations, best practices and legislative proposals in order to reform and improve the current state public contracting process, by making it more fair, predictable and equitable for all parties involved. § 2. There is hereby created a construction industry advisory council on public contracting reform (the "advisory council"), which shall consider and advise on matters concerning the improvement of the current public works contracting process in New York state. EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
