“This chapter also creates opportunities to employ a substantial number of apprentices, thus ensuring that these projects will expand access to living wage careers in the construction trades for a new generation of workers,” said Mayor Lisa Crate.
She said the ordinance is a bipartisan effort that ensures good paying jobs for people who live in Brick Township.
“This Project Labor Agreement puts Brick residents first,” she said. “That’s something to be proud of, because as I said before, what’s best for Brick Township is not about Republicans or Democrats, it’s about what’s good and right for our entire community.”
