A. When the city has a financial or proprietary interest in a project that includes hospitality operations such as hotels, restaurants, bars, clubs, and food and beverage operations and when the revenues generated by such operations are necessary to defray the public costs incurred in the construction or maintenance of such projects or when such revenues are necessary to fund lease, rental or license payments to the city, it is essential to the public fiscal welfare that the revenue stream to so defray or fund not be interrupted or in any manner be affected by labor disputes.

B. The city has found that the only effective way to avoid such disputes is to require employers and others to be signatory to collective bargaining agreements or other agreements under 29 U.S.C. Section 185(a) with unions representing or seeking to represent employees who will staff the hospitality operations described hereinabove, which agreements prohibit the union and its members, and in the case of collective bargaining agreements all employees covered by such agreements from engaging in picketing, work stoppages, boycotts or other economic interference with the business of said employers, for the duration of the hospitality operation so long as such operation is producing a revenue stream to city, as described above, and to provide instead for alternative dispute resolution for all employment disputes including unresolved negotiations.

C. It is the purpose of this chapter to require collective bargaining or other agreements as described above, to ensure continuous provision of employee services and consequent assurance that the city will continue to receive agreed upon revenue to defray financial obligations and to fund public services.
