Contractors for City projects shall make a good faith effort to comply with the following minimum goals: 1. Ten (10)percent of the total dollar amount of the contract should be performed by Minority Business Enterprises if subcontracting opportunities are available; and, 2. Eighteen (18) percent of the total hours worked should be performed by minority workers. Subcontracting is not required for a City project. SAK will use one subcontractor to perform televising and cleaning of the project sewers. SAK advertised locally, posted the work on SBA- Net website and sent 60 e-mail solicitations to MBE subcontractors. SAK received one response from Mid America Pipe Services based in St Louis, MO. Mid America Pipe services was not the most cost effective option and SAK elected to use Tele-Scan, a local non-MBE contractor to perform the work. This constitutes a good faith effort in meeting the City's minority business goals. POTENTIAL OBJECTION: i w r .
