Is this really the town's responsibility?

Town shuts down construction project for violation of labor laws.

On Tuesday, construction came to a halt after the town issued stop work orders to two companies.

The order cited the contractor, Caetano Construction LLC of Danbury with failing to secure payment of worker’s compensation, failing to obtain coverage that meets the requirements, misrepresenting employees as independent contractors and materially understating or concealing payroll.

A second stop work order cited Alvaro Construction,  249 Greenwich Ave in Stamford for misrepresenting employees as independent contractors.
