Exhibit B - 8 <br /> <br />2. Nondiscrimination: The Subrecipient agrees to comply with the non-discrimination in <br />employment and contracting opportunities laws, regulations, and executive orders referenced in <br />24 CFR 570.607, as revised by Executive Order 13279. The applicable non-discrimination <br />provisions in Section 109 of the HCDA are still applicable. <br /> <br />3. Land Covenants: This Agreement is subject to the requirements of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act <br />of 1964 (P.L. 88-352) and 24 CFR 570.601 and 602. In regard to the sale, lease, or other transfer <br />of land acquired, cleared or improved with assistance provided under this Agreement, the <br />Subrecipient shall cause or require a covenant running with the land to be inserted in the deed or <br />lease for such transfer, prohibiting discrimination as herein defined, in the sale, lease or rental, or <br />in the use or occupancy of such land, or in any improvements erected or to be erected thereon, <br />providing that the City and the United States are beneficiaries of and entitled to enforce such <br />covenants. The Subrecipient, in undertaking its obligation to carry out the program assisted <br />hereunder, agrees to take such measures as are necessary to enforce such covenant, and will not <br />itself so discriminate. <br /> <br />4. Section 504: The Subrecipient agrees to comply with any Federal regulations issued pursuant to <br />compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 706), which prohibits <br />discrimination against the handicapped in any Federally assisted program. The City shall provide <br />the Subrecipient with any guidelines necessary for compliance with that portion of the <br />regulations in force during the term of this Agreement <br /> <br />B. Affirmative Action <br /> <br />1. Affirmative Action Plan: The Subrecipient agrees that it shall be committed to carry out an <br />Affirmative Action Program in keeping with the principles as provided in President's Executive <br />Order 11246 of September 24, 1965. <br /> <br />2. Women and Minority Owned Businesses W/MBE: The Subrecipient will use its best efforts to <br />afford minority- and women-owned business enterprises the maximum practicable opportunity <br />to participate in the performance of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the terms “small <br />business” means a business that meets the criteria set forth in section 3(a) of the Small Business <br />Act, as amended (15 U.S.C. 632), and "minority and women’s business enterprise" means a <br />business at least fifty-one (51) percent owned and controlled by minority group members or <br />women. For the purpose of this definition, "minority group members" are Afro-Americans, <br />Spanish-speaking, Spanish surnamed or Spanish-heritage Americans, Asian Americans, and <br />American Indians. The Subrecipient may rely on written representations by businesses regarding <br />their status as minority and female business enterprises in lieu of an independent investigation. <br /> <br />3. Access to Records: The Subrecipient shall furnish and cause each of its own contractors or <br />subcontractors to furnish all information and reports required hereunder and will permit access <br />to its books, records and accounts by the City, HUD or its agent, or other authorized Federal <br />officials for purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with the rules, regulations and <br />provisions stated herein.
