PA SB996

Amends the Capital Facilities Debt Enabling Act to require prevailing wage rates for redevelopment assistance capital projects with construction costs exceeding $25,000

Projects under $25,000 in total construction costs remain subject only to the existing three-bid minimum requirement

Designates all redevelopment assistance capital projects as "public work" under the Pennsylvania Prevailing Wage Act, regardless of whether work is divided into separate contracts or phases

Prevents circumvention of prevailing wage requirements when consecutive work or work within the same project site/structure is split into multiple phases

Takes effect 60 days after enactment
