SECTION I - GENERAL POLICY STATEMENT
It is the policy of the City of Iowa City to require equal employment opportunity in all City contract work. This
policy prohibits discrimination by the City's contractors, consultants and vendors and requires them to ensure
that applicants seeking employment with them and their employees are treated equally without regard to
race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, marital status,
and age.
It is the City's intention to assist employers, who are City contractors, vendors or consultants, in designing
and implementing equal employment opportunity so that all citizens will be afforded equal accessibility and
opportunity to gain and maintain employment.
PROVISIONS:
All contractors, vendors, and consultants requesting to do business with the City must submit an
Equal Opportunity Policy Statement before the execution of the contract.
2. All City contractors, vendors, and consultants with contracts of $25,000 or more (or less if required by
another governmental agency) must abide by the requirements of the City's Contract Compliance
Program. Emergency contracts may be exempt from this provision at the discretion of the City.
Regardless of the value of the contract, all contractors, vendors, and consultants are subject to the
City's Human Rights Ordinance, which is codified at Article 2 of the City Code.
Contracting departments are responsible for assuring that City contractors, vendors, and consultants
are made aware of the City's Contract Compliance Program reporting responsibilities and receive the
appropriate reporting forms. A notification of requirements will be included in any request for proposal
and notice of bids.
4. Prior to execution of the contract, the completed and signed Assurance of Compliance (located on
pages CC -2 and CC -3) or other required material must be received and approved by the City.
5. Contracting departments are responsible for answering questions about contractor, consultant
and vendor compliance during the course of the contract with the City.
6. All contractors, vendors, and consultants must refrain from the use of any signs or designations
which are sexist in nature, such as those which state "Men Working" or "Flagman Ahead," and
instead use gender neutral signs.
7. All contractors, vendors, and consultants must assure that their subcontractors abide by the
City's Human Rights Ordinance. The City's protected classes are listed at Iowa City City Code
section 2 -3 -1.

SECTION II - ASSURANCE OF COMPLIANCE

With respect to the performance of this contract, the contractor, consultant or vendor agrees as follows:
(For the purposes of these minimum requirements, "contractor" shall include consultants and vendors.)

affirmative efforts to ensure applicants and employees are treated during employment without regard
to their race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability,
marital status, and age. Such efforts shall include, but not be limited to the following: employment,
promotion, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of
pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship.
b. The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the
contractor, state that it is an equal opportunity employer.
Note: Contracts that are federally funded are subject to Executive Order No. 11246, as amended, and the
regulations (see generally 29 U.S.C. § 1608 et se q.) and relevant orders of the U.S. Secretary of
Labor. The Secretary of Labor, and not the City, enforces said regulations and orders.

SECTION III - SUGGESTED STEPS TO ASSURE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
COMPANY POLICY
Determine your company's policy regarding equal employment opportunities. Document the policy and post
it in a conspicuous place so that it is known to all your employees. Furthermore, disseminate the policy to all
potential sources of employees and to your subcontractors asking their cooperation. The policy statement
should recognize and accept your responsibility to provide equal employment opportunity in all your
employment practices. In regard to dissemination of this policy, this can be done, for example, through the
use of letters to all recruitment sources and subcontractors, personal contacts, employee meetings, web
page postings, employee handbooks, and advertising.
2. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY OFFICER
Designate an equal employment opportunity officer or, at minimum, assign someone the responsibility of
administering and promoting your company's Equal Employment Opportunity program. This person should
have a position in your organization which emphasizes the importance of the program.
INSTRUCT STAFF
Your staff should be aware of and be required to abide by your Equal Employment Opportunity program. All
employees authorized to hire, supervise, promote, or discharge employees or are involved in such actions
should be trained and required to comply with your policy and the current equal employment opportunity
laws.
4. RECRUITMENT
(a) Let potential employees know you are an equal opportunity employer. This-.6�6 be.jone�
identifying yourself on all recruitment advertising as "an equal opportunity employea«'j.:.,
(b) Use recruitment sources that are likely to yield diverse applicant pools. Word- of466th r@kruitment
will only perpetuate the current composition of your workforce. Send recruitment sourdes a letter
annually which reaffirms your commitment to equal employment opportunity and requists their
assistance in helping you reach diverse applicant pools.
(c) Analyze and review your company's recruitment procedures to identify and eliminate discriminatory
barriers.
(d) Select and train persons involved in the employment process to use objective standards and to
support equal employment opportunity goals.
(e) Review periodically job descriptions to make sure they accurately reflect major job functions. Review
education and experience requirements to make sure they accurately reflect the requirements for
successful job performance.
(f) Review the job application to insure that only job related questions are asked. Ask yourself "Is this
information necessary to judge an applicant's ability to perform the job applied for ?" Only use
job - related tests which do not adversely affect any particular group of people.
(g) Monitor interviews carefully. Prepare interview questions in advance to assure that they are only job
related. Train your interviewers on discrimination laws. Biased and subjective judgments in personal
interviews can be a major source of discrimination.
(h) Improve hiring and selection procedures and use non - biased promotion, transfer and training
policies to increase and /or improve the diversity of your workforce representation. Companies
must make sure procedures for selecting candidates for promotion, transfer and training are
based upon a fair assessment of an employee's ability and work record. Furthermore, all
companies should post and otherwise publicize all job promotional opportunities and encourage
all qualified employees to bid on them.

A. Silt fence shall be installed at locations indicated on the plans immediately iron
completion of grading. Wood excelsior mat shall be placed and stak66 in sealed
areas of swales immediately following seeding.
3.03 GEOTEXTILE:
A. Surface Preparation
The surface on which the geotextile is to be placed will be graded to the
neat lines and grades as shown on the plans. The surface will be
reasonably smooth and free of loose rock and clods, holes, depressions,
projections, muddy conditions and standing or flowing water.
B. Placement
Prior to placement of the geotextile, the soil surface will be inspected for
quality of design and construction. The geotextile will be placed on the
approved surface at the locations and in accordance with the details shown
on the plans. The geotextile will be unrolled along the placement area and
loosely laid (not stretched) in such a manner that it will conform to the
surface irregularities when material is placed on or against it. The
geotextile may be folded and overlapped to permit proper placement in the
designated area.
2. The geotextile will be joined by overlapping a minimum of 18 inches (unless
otherwise specified on the plans or by the manufacturer), and secured
against the underlying foundation material. Securing pins, approved and
provided by the geotextile manufacturer, shall be placed along the edge of
the panel or roll material to adequately hold it in place during installation.
Pins will be steel or fiberglass formed as a "U ", "L ", or "T shape or contain
"ears" to prevent total penetration. Steel washers will be provided on all but
the "U" shaped pins. The upstream or up -slope line will be inserted
through both layers along a line through approximately the midpoint of the
overlap. At horizontal laps and across slope laps, securing pins will be
inserted through the bottom layer only. Securing pins will be placed along
02270 -2
a line approximately 2 inches in from the edge of the placed geotextile at
intervals not to exceed 12 feet unless otherwise specified. Additional pins
will be installed as necessary and where appropriate, to prevent slippage or
movement of the geotextile. The use of securing pins will be held to the
minimum necessary. Pins are to be left in place unless otherwise
specified.
3. Should the geotextile be torn or punctured, or the overlaps disturbed, as
evidenced by visible damage, subgrade pumping, intrusion, or grade
distortion, the backfill around the damaged or displaced area will be
removed and restored to the original approved condition. The repair will
consist of a patch of the same type of geotextile being used, overlapping
the existing geotextile. Geotextile panels joined by overlap will have th-
patch extend a minimum of 2 feet from the edge of any damaged area.
4. The geotextile will not be placed until it can be anchored and protected with
the specified covering within 48 hours or protected from exposure to
ultraviolet light. In no case will material be dropped on uncovered
geotextile from a height greater than 3 feet.
