Agenda Item No. /{" 'CIT~ OF SAN BERNARDliib - REQUM FOR COUNCIL AC-hbN STAFF REPORT The City adopted a Minority Business Program in 1981, as required by the U.S. Department of Transportation for continued eligibility for Federal-Aid Funds apportioned through the Federal Highway Administration. This program provides that certain per- centages of federally-aided contracts will be awarded to a minority or female business enterprise. Goals for participation have been set each year since the program has been in effect. A notice of the program is published annually in local newspapers. The 1987 Surface Transportation and Uniform Relocation Assistance Act states that, for purposes of the Act, women are presumed to be socially and economically disadvantaged. There- fore, the Federal Highway Administration has eliminated the requirement for separate Disadvantaged Businesses (DB) and Women Business Enterprises'(WBE's) goals. Future projects will contain only DB goals, of which any or all may be made up of WBE's. The minimum goal under this act is still 10%, but includes WBE's. It will be necessary for the City to modify their program to reflect the revisions in the act, by adoption of the attached resolution. We will be required to publish the 90als for the 1987-88 fiscal year in both majority and minority media. Adoption of a Minority Business Program is required, in order to be eligible for Federal-Aid Highway Funds. We recommend that the program be modified. 9-17-87 75-0264 c ,<"".''''. ~ j ........ -..,.)
