The City of Carson understands that construction jobs pay solid wages with benefits that you can raise a family on, which puts dollars back into the local economy, allowing the local economy to grow. Carson has made the decision to require the use of a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) on the CityView 198-unit mixed use project with 20,000 square feet of retail space. The Building Trades News has the complete story.
In November 2009, the Orange County Supervisors, voted to make the use of PLA's illegal on county funded construction projects. Carson understands how construction is an economic way up out of poverty and into the middle class for many people. Carson understands that local middle class jobs let dollars circulate and create other local jobs. What does Carson understand that the Orange County Supervisors don't?
