§ 3-1. Legislative intent.

The Board finds that apprenticeship training programs provide workers with skills required to assure the safe construction and improvement of facilities throughout the Town. It is the intent of this chapter to require that, with respect to construction contracts in excess of $250,000, contractors and subcontractors shall have in place apprenticeship training agreements appropriate for the type and scope of work to be performed which have been registered with and approved by the New York State Commissioner of Labor in accordance with Article 23 of the New York Labor Law as evidenced by valid certificates of completion demonstrating that apprentices have graduated from such programs.
