Common use of COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS Clause in Contracts

COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS. Contractor, to the extent applicable to this Agreement, shall comply with the following Federal laws and regulations as set forth in 24 CFR §§570.600-612: A. Public Law 88-352, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which provides that no person in the United States shall be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance, including community development funds, on the grounds of race, color, or national origin. B. Public Law 90-284, Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. §§3601- 20), which provides that it is the policy of the United States to provide, within constitutional limitations, fair housing throughout the United States and prohibits any person from discriminating in the sale, rental, or financing of housing on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin handicap or familial status. The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988, also establishes requirements for the design and construction of new rental or for sale multifamily housing to ensure a minimum level of accessibility for persons with disabilities. Multifamily dwelling units in buildings containing 4 or more units served by one or more elevators, or ground floor dwellings units with 4 or more units, constructed for first occupancy after March 13, 1991, must be designed and constructed in a manner that the public and common use portions of such dwellings are readily accessible to and usable by disabled persons. All premises within such dwellings must incorporate features of adaptive design regarding accessibility routes into and through the dwelling and design features within the units. (Regarding accessibility design issues, State accessibility requirements will prevail if they are stricter than federal requirements.) C. Age Discrimination Act of 1975, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in the delivery of services, programs or benefits supported by Federal funds. D. Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 504, which prohibits discrimination against otherwise qualified handicapped persons in the provision of programs, facilities and employment supported by Federal funds. In the case of multifamily rental housing, projects of five or more units must be designed and constructed to be readily accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities. For new construction involving five or more units, and substantial rehabilitation projects of 15 or more units (with substantial rehabilitation defined as rehabilitation costs representing 75 percent or more of the replacement costs of the completed facility), the following requirements must be followed - a minimum of 5 percent of the dwelling units must be accessible to individuals with mobility impairments and an additional 2 percent accessible to individuals with sensory impairments. At the minimum, one unit shall be made accessible to mobility-impaired individuals and one unit accessible to sensory impaired individuals. When less than substantial rehabilitation is undertaken in multifamily rental housing projects of any size, these alterations must, to the maximum extent feasible, make the dwelling units accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities, until a minimum of 5 percent of the dwelling units (but not less than one unit) are accessible to persons with mobility impairments; for this category of less than substantial rehabilitation, the additional 2 percent of the units for persons with sensory impairments does not apply. Also for this category of rehabilitation, if undertaking accessibility alterations imposes undue financial and administrative burdens on the operation of the multifamily housing project, the alterations are not required. In the case of non-housing facilities involving new construction, the facilities shall be designed and constructed to be readily accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities. For facilities involving alterations, to the extent possible, the alterations should ensure that such facilities are readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. An element of an existing non-housing facility need not be made accessible, if doing so, would impose undue financial and administrative burdens on the operation of the recipient program or activity. (However, State law will prevail if State accessibility requirements are stricter than federal 504 requirements.) Recipients are still required to take other actions that would ensure that persons with disabilities receive the benefits and services of the program. X. Xxxxx-Xxxxx Act, which requires that all laborers and mechanics employed by contractors or subcontractors on construction work financed in whole or in part with Federal funds shall be paid prevailing wages of the locality as determined by the Secretary of Labor. F. Section 3, Housing & Urban Development Act of 1968. For all programs receiving $100,000 or more, or construction projects receiving $200,000 or more, of HUD financial assistance, to the greatest extent feasible, economic opportunities will be given to Section 3 residents and businesses in the area. Section 3 Residents are defined as: 1) residents of public housing; or 2) low and very-low income persons living in the area. Section 3 Businesses are defined as businesses: 1) that are at least 51% owned by Section 3 Residents; 2) whose permanent, full-time employees include persons, at least 30 percent of whom are currently Section 3 residents, or within three years of the date of first employment with the business concern were section 3 residents; or 3) that provide evidence of a commitment to subcontract in excess of 25 % of the dollar award of all subcontract to be awarded to a section 3 business concern. Contractors must maintain appropriate documentation of their efforts to comply with Section 3 requirements. X. Xxxxx Disaster Protection Act of 1973, which provides that no federal financial assistance for acquisition or construction purposes may be approved for an area having special flood hazards unless the community in which the area is located is participating in the National Flood Insurance Program. H. Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, which provides for relocation assistance for any family, individual, business, non-profit organization or farm displaced as a result of acquisition of property with federal funds. I. Executive Order 11246, amended by Executive Order 12086, Equal Employment and Contracting Opportunities, which provide that no person shall be discriminated against on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin in all phases of employment during the performance of federally assisted construction contracts. J Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, Section 3, which requires that, in the planning and carrying out of any project assisted under the Act, that to the greatest extent feasible, opportunities for training and employment be given to low and moderate income persons residing within the unit of local government in which the project is located, and that contracts for work in connection with the project be awarded to eligible business concerns which are located in, or owned in substantial part by persons residing in the same unit of local government as the project.

Public Law 88-352, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which provides that no person in the United States shall be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance, including community development funds, on the grounds of race, color, or national origin. B. Public Law 90-284, Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. §§3601- 20), which provides that it is the policy of the United States to provide, within constitutional limitations, fair housing throughout the United States and prohibits any person from discriminating in the sale, rental, or financing of housing on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin handicap or familial status. The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988, also establishes requirements for the design and construction of new rental or for sale multifamily housing to ensure a minimum level of accessibility for persons with disabilities. Multifamily dwelling units in buildings containing 4 or more units served by one or more elevators, or ground floor dwellings units with 4 or more units, constructed for first occupancy after March 13, 1991, must be designed and constructed in a manner that the public and common use portions of such dwellings are readily accessible to and usable by disabled persons. All premises within such dwellings must incorporate features of adaptive design regarding accessibility routes into and through the dwelling and design features within the units. (Regarding accessibility design issues, State accessibility requirements will prevail if they are stricter than federal requirements.) C.

Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 504, which prohibits discrimination against otherwise qualified handicapped persons in the provision of programs, facilities and employment supported by Federal funds. In the case of multifamily rental housing, projects of five or more units must be designed and constructed to be readily accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities.

At the minimum, one unit shall be made accessible to mobility-impaired individuals and one unit accessible to sensory impaired individuals. When less than substantial rehabilitation is undertaken in multifamily rental housing projects of any size, these alterations must, to the maximum extent feasible, make the dwelling units accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities, until a minimum of 5 percent of the dwelling units (but not less than one unit) are accessible to persons with mobility impairments; for this category of less than substantial rehabilitation, the additional 2 percent of the units for persons with sensory impairments does not apply. Also for this category of rehabilitation, if undertaking accessibility alterations imposes undue financial and administrative burdens on the operation of the multifamily housing project, the alterations are not required. In the case of non-housing facilities involving new construction, the facilities shall be designed and constructed to be readily accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities. For facilities involving alterations, to the extent possible, the alterations should ensure that such facilities are readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. An element of an existing non-housing facility need not be made accessible, if doing so, would impose undue financial and administrative burdens on the operation of the recipient program or activity. (However, State law will prevail if State accessibility requirements are stricter than federal 504 requirements.) Recipients are still required to take other actions that would ensure that persons with disabilities receive the benefits and services of the program. X.

COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS. Contractor, to the extent applicable to this Agreement, shall comply with the following Federal laws and regulations as set forth in 24 CFR §§570.600-612: A. Public Law 88-352, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which provides that no person in the United States shall be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance, including community development funds, on the grounds of race, color, or national origin. B. Public Law 90-284, Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. §§3601- 20), which provides that it is the policy of the United States to provide, within constitutional limitations, fair housing throughout the United States and prohibits any person from discriminating in the sale, rental, or financing of housing on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin handicap or familial status. The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988, also establishes requirements for the design and construction of new rental or for sale multifamily housing to ensure a minimum level of accessibility for persons with disabilities. Multifamily dwelling units in buildings containing 4 or more units served by one or more elevators, or ground floor dwellings units with 4 or more units, constructed for first occupancy after March 13, 1991, must be designed and constructed in a manner that the public and common use portions of such dwellings are readily accessible to and usable by disabled persons. All premises within such dwellings must incorporate features of adaptive design regarding accessibility routes into and through the dwelling and design features within the units. (Regarding accessibility design issues, State accessibility requirements will prevail if they are stricter than federal requirements.) C. Age Discrimination Act of 1975, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in the delivery of services, programs or benefits supported by Federal funds. D. Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 504, which prohibits discrimination against otherwise qualified handicapped persons in the provision of programs, facilities and employment supported by Federal funds. In the case of multifamily rental housing, projects of five or more units must be designed and constructed to be readily accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities. For new construction involving five or more units, and substantial rehabilitation projects of 15 or more units (with substantial rehabilitation defined as rehabilitation costs representing 75 percent or more of the replacement costs of the completed facility), the following requirements must be followed - a minimum of 5 percent of the dwelling units must be accessible to individuals with mobility impairments and an additional 2 percent accessible to individuals with sensory impairments. At the minimum, one unit shall be made accessible to mobility-impaired individuals and one unit accessible to sensory impaired individuals. When less than substantial rehabilitation is undertaken in multifamily rental housing projects of any size, these alterations must, to the maximum extent feasible, make the dwelling units accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities, until a minimum of 5 percent of the dwelling units (but not less than one unit) are accessible to persons with mobility impairments; for this category of less than substantial rehabilitation, the additional 2 percent of the units for persons with sensory impairments does not apply. Also for this category of rehabilitation, if undertaking accessibility alterations imposes undue financial and administrative burdens on the operation of the multifamily housing project, the alterations are not required. In the case of non-housing facilities involving new construction, the facilities shall be designed and constructed to be readily accessible to and usable by persons with disabilities. For facilities involving alterations, to the extent possible, the alterations should ensure that such facilities are readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. An element of an existing non-housing facility need not be made accessible, if doing so, would impose undue financial and administrative burdens on the operation of the recipient program or activity. (However, State law will prevail if State accessibility requirements are stricter than federal 504 requirements.) Recipients are still required to take other actions that would ensure that persons with disabilities receive the benefits and services of the program. X. Xxxxx-Xxxxx Act, which requires that all laborers and mechanics employed by contractors or subcontractors on construction work financed in whole or in part with Federal funds shall be paid prevailing wages of the locality as determined by the Secretary of Labor. F. Section 3, Housing & Urban Development Act of 1968. For all programs receiving $100,000 or more, or construction projects receiving $200,000 or more, of HUD financial assistance, to the greatest extent feasible, economic opportunities will be given to Section 3 residents and businesses in the area. Section 3 Residents are defined as: 1) residents of public housing; or 2) low and very-low income persons living in the area. Section 3 Businesses are defined as businesses: 1) that are at least 51% owned by Section 3 Residents; 2) whose permanent, full-time employees include persons, at least 30 percent of whom are currently Section 3 residents, or within three years of the date of first employment with the business concern were section 3 residents; or 3) that provide evidence of a commitment to subcontract in excess of 25 % of the dollar award of all subcontract to be awarded to a section 3 business concern. Contractors must maintain appropriate documentation of their efforts to comply with Section 3 requirements. X. Xxxxx Disaster Protection Act of 1973, which provides that no federal financial assistance for acquisition or construction purposes may be approved for an area having special flood hazards unless the community in which the area is located is participating in the National Flood Insurance Program.
