The Greater Phoenix Chamber commends the Court of Appeals’ thoughtful decision affirming the Superior Court’s ruling regarding cities implementing prevailing wage ordinances. This ruling reinforces longstanding Arizona law prohibiting the enactment of prevailing wage requirements and provides important certainty for employers and public projects. By preventing the implementation of ordinances that would raise project costs, the decision helps ensure efficiency, keep the tax burden low, and maintain a competitive business environment.
