MS&B Attorneys Present on Prevailing Wage Law at NJNAHRO Conference
McManimon, Scotland & Baumann, LLC attorneys Bakari G. Lee and Ted Del Guercio, III recently presented a seminar on prevailing wage law at the 2026 New Jersey National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials (NJNAHRO) conference.
The presentation addressed key considerations in affordable housing development, including the circumstances that trigger application of the New Jersey Prevailing Wage Act, the impact of public ownership structures on housing authority transactions, and the interplay between federal Davis-Bacon requirements and state law obligations.
Prevailing wage compliance remains a critical issue in affordable housing projects, particularly where public funding or public property is involved, with significant implications for project structuring, cost, and execution. The program provided practical guidance to housing authorities and practitioners navigating these complex requirements.
MS&B extends its appreciation to Partner Karl Kemm and Law Clerk Sarah Elgalad for their contributions to the development of the presentation.
