AI Summary

  • Constructing a child care facility within a privately-owned affordable housing project does not trigger prevailing wage requirements for the overall housing project, provided the child care facility serves an average of 75% children who reside in the project and are eligible for government-subsidized child care or early learning

  • Prevailing wage requirements still apply specifically to the labor costs of constructing the child care facility itself

  • Project owners must annually provide compliance evidence to the Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor and Industries demonstrating the child care facility meets the 75% residency and subsidy-eligibility requirement

  • Amendments become operative January 1, 2026, and apply to contracts entered into on or after that date for affordable housing construction

  • Takes effect on the 91st day following adjournment of the 2025 regular legislative session
