The City of Urbana Human Rights Commission approved EEO workforce certifications for six companies at its Jan. 13 meeting.
A motion to certify Air 1 Equipment (1 year), Busey Bank (2 years), Glasgow Electric (1 year), Lauterbach and Amen (2 years), RingCentral (2 years), and Tom Davis Electric doing business as Davis Electric (2 years) was made and seconded. Commissioners discussed whether Tom Davis Electric should receive a two‑year certification given its reported workforce figures; a commissioner noted the company had previously been given a one‑year certification to allow follow-up on related union issues.
Peter Resnick and others raised concerns about the Davis Electric workforce numbers but commissioners ultimately approved the two‑year certification and indicated they would follow up on union-related documentation. The transcript records voice‑vote responses of "Aye," but it does not record a full roll-call tally in the minutes.
The commission's acceptance of the certifications was procedural: it approves the companies' EEO workforce statistics as submitted and sets any further review (including follow-up on unions) as a separate action.
Next steps: The commission did not amend or withhold certifications at the meeting; members indicated staff follow-up on union documentation and continued monitoring of workforce compliance.
