Overview: Because California's prevailing wage law (PWL), Lab. Code, ? 1720 et seq., did not address matters of statewide concern, a charter city's public works contracts financed solely from city revenues did not have to comply with the PWL; such contracts were municipal affairs as to which the city had paramount power under Cal. Const., art. XI, ? 5.
