Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by This is a declaratory judgment-injunction action originally brought by five construction firms claiming the defendant Kansas Department of Transportation violated K.S.A. 44-201 by specifying, on wholly state-funded highway projects, payment of federal Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates [40 U.S.C. § 276a(a) and (b) (1976)]. Plaintiffs Ritchie Paving, Inc., and Utility Contractors, Inc. appeal from the trial court's adverse decision. Defendant Kansas Department of Transportation (hereinafter referred to as KDOT) gave appropriate notice of its intention to let bids on some 32 highway projects located in various parts of the state. The bid letting was set for December 17, 1981. The bid specifications for each project: (1) required the payment of the applicable Davis-Bacon minimum wage rates; and (2) compliance with K.S.A. 44-201.
