Committees

Several committees support the City's efforts to promote access to construction careers for women, people of color and others with social and economic disadvantages.

Public Works Joint Administrative Committee

The Public Works Joint Administrative Committee (JAC) discusses issues, impacts and solutions related to the signed community workforce agreement. Specifically, the committee is tasked with addressing safety, targeted hiring, apprenticeship utilization, preferred entry, job progress and other relevant issues that will affect the project. Parties that are not signatory to the agreement are not on the committee but invited to be in the audience.
