Contracts
BAM and Armory projects are public works, prevailing wage rates apply.
Comptroller brought proceeding against a contractor and its president (respondents), alleging that they failed to pay prevailing wages and benefits to two employees who performed electrical work at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) and the Fort Washington Armory (Armory). Respondents moved to dismiss on the ground that neither the BAM nor the Armory project is a public work for which the payment of prevailing wages is required.
