Orlando schedules public meeting to address suspended MWBE program; consultant to evaluate next steps
Summary
Following a suspension of the city's MWBE program, officials scheduled a community meeting and will bring in a consultant to evaluate next steps, Commissioner Rose said.
Commissioner Rose told the City Council on June 23 that the city has suspended its MWBE (minority- and women-owned business enterprise) program and will host a community meeting Thursday at 5:30 p.m. in the City Hall Rotunda to discuss next steps.
Rose said the city has engaged a consultant to evaluate the program and advise on future actions. She invited contractors and community members to attend and participate in the discussion.
No formal council action on the program was recorded in the meeting minutes; Rose said the consultant will evaluate next steps and the public meeting will be an opportunity for community input.
