Part 4. NONDISCRIMINATION POLICY |
§ 126.406. Effect of final order finding noncompliance.
(a)
With respect to a person seeking the award of a City contract, a copy of a final order finding noncompliance with the policy of nondiscrimination required by this Part shall be furnished to the committee or the Mayor, whichever requested the investigation. No City contract shall be awarded to a person failing to comply with the policy of nondiscrimination required by this part.
(b)
With respect to the nondiscrimination provisions of a City contract, a copy of a final order finding noncompliance with the provisions shall be furnished to the Mayor and the Chief. Every order shall afford the bidder or contractor affected an opportunity to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the authority issuing the order which becomes final, within the reasonable time as the issuing authority determines, that the breach of the nondiscrimination provisions has been corrected. At the expiration of the reasonable time, the issuing authority shall enter a further order determining whether or not the breach has been corrected, furnishing copies thereof to the affected person, the Mayor and the Chief. A person failing to correct the breach of the nondiscrimination provisions within the time period permitted shall be deemed an irresponsible bidder, and no City contract shall be awarded to this person. An irresponsible bidder under this subsection shall have the opportunity to submit to the Commission at any time a program adopting and maintaining a policy of nondiscrimination and, upon approval thereof by the Commission, the prohibitions of this subsection shall terminate.
