Title
Amending Sections 39.02(9)(e)2. and 39.02(9)(c) of the Madison General Ordinances to amend Article IV of the Affirmative Action Articles of Agreement regarding exempt status, and to require job posting information to be provided in a timely manner.

This ordinance also adds a timeliness requirement to the job posting requirement so that contractors notify the city of job openings with enough time for the city to make referrals.
