Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Prevailing Wage Act. Provides that the prevailing wage shall not be less than the rate that prevails for similar work performed under collective bargaining agreements in the locality provided that the agreements cover at least 30% of the workers. Provides that, if bargaining agreements do not exist in the locality, the Department of Labor shall ascertain the prevailing wage to be paid under the Act. Applies to public works performed without a written contract. Requires that the Department publish prevailing wages schedules on its website.

 Judicial Note (Admin Office of the Illinois Courts)
 This bill would neither increase nor decrease the number of judges needed in the State.

 Pension Note (Government Forecasting & Accountability)
 SB 2964 would not impact any public pension fund or retirement system in Illinois.

 State Debt Impact Note (Government Forecasting & Accountability)
 SB 2964 would not change the amount of authorization for any type of State-issued or State-supported bond, and, therefore, would not affect the level of State indebtedness.

 Land Conveyance Appraisal Note (Dept. of Transportation)
 No land conveyances are included in this bill, therefore, there are no appraisals to be filed.

 Housing Affordability Impact Note (Housing Development Authority)
 This bill will have no effect on the cost of constructing, purchasing, owning, or selling a single-family residence.

Governor Amendatory Veto Message
Recommends: deleting language providing that if bargaining agreements do not exist in a locality, the Department of Labor shall ascertain the prevailing wage to be paid; deleting language providing that if it is determined that less than 30% of the workers in a particular trade or occupation in the locality where the work is performed receive a collectively bargained wage, then the average wage paid to the worker in the same trade or occupation in the locality for the 12-month period preceding the Department of Labor's annual determination shall be the prevailing wage; adding language providing that in a prevailing wage investigation, a public body or the Department of Labor shall give appropriate consideration to wages required to be paid under collective bargaining agreements for those crafts and types of workers in localities and a public body or the Department of Labor may limit its investigation with respect to a specific craft or type of worker in a specific locality to only wages required to be paid under collective bargaining agreements if the public body or the Department of Labor has first determined with competent evidence that work currently performed in that locality by that craft or type of worker is predominantly performed under a collective bargaining agreement and that consideration of other evidence would not affect the prevailing wage; deleting a repealer of language regarding procedures if a public body or the Department is unable to ascertain the prevailing wage; and making various changes to the bill to conform to the deletions described above. (Deletes reference to: 20 ILCS 130/7; 820 ILCS 130/10; 820 ILCS 130/8 rep.)
