  2. Shakman Accord Provisions
  1. The City is subject to the May 31, 2007 Order entitled "Agreed Settlement Order and Accord" (the "Shakman Accord") and the June 24, 2011 "City of Chicago Hiring Plan" (the "City Hiring Plan") entered in Shakman v. Democratic Organization of Cook County, Case No 69 C 2145 (United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois). Among other things, the Shakman Accord and the City Hiring Plan prohibit the City from hiring persons as governmental employees in non-exempt positions on the basis of political reasons or factors.
  2. The Chicago Housing Authority is aware that City policy prohibits City employees from directing any individual to apply for a position with the CHA, either as an employee or as a subcontractor, and from directing the CHA to hire an individual as an employee or as a subcontractor. Accordingly, the CHA must follow its own hiring and contracting procedures, without being influenced by City employees. Any and all personnel provided by the CHA under this Agreement are employees or subcontractors of the CHA, not employees of the City of Chicago. This Agreement is not intended to and does not constitute, create, give rise to, or otherwise recognize an employer-employee relationship of any kind between the City and any personnel provided by the CHA.
  3. The CHA will not condition, base, or knowingly prejudice or affect any term or aspect of the employment of any personnel provided under this Agreement,- or offer employment to any individual to provide services under this Agreement, based upon or because of any political reason or factor, including, without limitation, any individual's political affiliation, membership in a political organization or party, political support or activity, political financial contributions, promises of such political support, activity or financial contributions, or such individual's political sponsorship or recommendation. For purposes of this Agreement, a political organization or party is an identifiable group or entity that has as its primary purpose the support of or opposition to candidates for elected public office. Individual political activities are the activities of individual persons in support of or in opposition to political organizations or parties or candidates for elected public office.
 
 
 
12
 
(iv) In the event of any communication to the CHA by a City employee or City official in violation of this Section 7.23(ii), or advocating a violation of Section 7.23(iii), the CHA will, as soon as is reasonably practicable, report such communication to the Hiring Oversight Section of the City's Office of the Inspector General ("IGO Hiring Oversight"), and also to the head of the relevant City Department. CHA will also cooperate with any inquires by IGO Hiring Oversight or the Shakman Monitor's Office related to this Agreement.
 
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the CHA and the City, acting through the CPD have executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.
