(1) An employer subject to this Chapter who fails to comply with its provisions may, after notice and hearing before the Finance Director or such other officer or agency designated by the Mayor, be suspended from receiving financial assistance from the City or from bidding on and/or participating in future City contracts for up to three (3) years.
(2) Council may, by resolution adopted after a public hearing, determine that there are reasonable grounds to believe that an employer subject to this Chapter has failed to comply with its provisions, and that if such failure is established, then debarment would be an appropriate remedy for such failure. A copy of any such adopted resolution shall be forwarded to the Finance Director, or such other officer or agency designated by the Mayor, who shall without undue delay provide appropriate notice and opportunity for hearing, and after such hearing, make a final determination as to whether there has been a violation of this Chapter and whether debarment, as provided by subsection 17-1312(1), should be imposed. Such debarment shall be in addition to any of the other sanctions or remedies set forth in this Chapter. The debarment procedure set forth in this subsection (2) shall be in addition to any procedure for debarment established pursuant to subsection 17-1312(1).
