CertifySTL M/WBE Certification Program Remains on Pause
As of August 4, 2025, city departments will not issue any new non-emergency contracts for city construction projects covered by M/WBE goals.
Already-executed city construction contracts will continue to operate under original/existing terms.
SLDC is hiring a nationally-recognized consultant to provide, in addition to community stakeholders, evaluation of the City’s current M/WBE ordinance and guidance during this pause.
