Everett considers ordinance to require more apprentice labor
EVERETT — There could soon be additional requirements to use apprentice labor on city projects in Everett if a proposed ordinance introduced to the City Council on Wednesday is approved.
The ordinance would expand current requirements mandating certain construction or renovation projects in the city to use at least 15% apprentice labor.
Currently, those mandates are in place for all projects on city buildings that cost over $1 million, or any other construction or renovation project the city undertakes with a cost over $5 million.
The new ordinance would expand upon these requirements, eventually requiring apprentice labor on all city construction or renovation work expected to cost more than $1 million.
