As we have previously reported, ACS A1571 & A-1576 would make any public work done on a property or premises for which a public body provides, approves or authorizes a tax abatement or tax exemption for the property or premises subject to the Prevailing Wage Act. We have prepared a sample letter for you to reach out to your Assembly Representatives and State Senators explaining how this legislation will negatively impact your municipality. It is critical that legislators hear local elected officials’ concerns with the bill advancing and the impact this new requirement will have on your redevelopment and affordable housing projects.
