Government Affairs Committee
The Government Affairs Committee of the Chamber took positions on four proposed pieces of legislation at their April meeting:
The committee opposed AB 67, the mandated double pay for
employees working on specific “family holidays”. The bill was opposed on the basis that it increased costs for California businesses and made them less competitive.
The committee also opposed AB 357 which required additional pay for
employee schedule changes. This bill not only increased the cost of doing business in California, but created a new protected class, persons receiving public assistance, which could add to litigation problems.
The committee supported AB 259 which made government agencies
responsible for britches of individual personal information leading to identity theft, just as private corporations are.
The committee supported AB 323. This bill gives small cities and
counties relief from certain environmental regulations allowing for less costly and more timely repair, maintenance, or minor alterations on existing roadways.
Please join the G.A.C. on the second Friday of each month for conversations with your elected officials and discussions on pending legislation.—Dr. Les Malo Garden Grove Dog & Cat Hospital

Preventing Robberies When Transporting Money Your business is doing well. You are seeing an increase in profits. So now you need to make sure the money makes it to the bank for deposit. That’s when you are the most at risk.
We are creatures of habit. All a robber has to do is watch your business and make some notes. The robber knows when the bank deposits are made, by whom and at what bank. This is how a robber makes a profit: by stealing your hard earned money.
Here are some tips to reduce your risk of loss:
Have safes or lock boxes in the office in case you do accumulate a large amount of cash during the day.
Make cash drops from your registers during the day to avoid large amounts at the cash register.
NEVER leave cash in registers, cars or lying around the office overnight.
Use armored car services if your business does a large volume of cash transactions.
Make sure that your couriers vary their routes to the bank- the shortest route in the transfer process, the more
difficult it is for a robber to plan his act.
Make your deposits irregularly and avoid a regular route to the bank.
Avoid carrying bags or bundles that appear to look like bank deposits. Have several different carrying methods or
bags to transport deposits.
Make your deposits in the bank during the day instead of the night drop box whenever possible. The more people
around you, the less likely you will have problems. Let’s put the robber out of business with the smart and safe transportation of money!

Walmart Supports CHOC Children’s Hospital
On Friday, June 5, 2015, Walmart partnered with both the Garden Grove Police
Department and Fire Department with a fundraiser to help raise money for CHOC
Children’s Hospital. This was a success thanks to the wonderful customers who shop at
the Garden Grove Walmart Supercenter. See Fire Chief, Tom Schultz, and Police Chief,
Todd Elgin, in photo on right.
It was another beautiful day at the 2015 11th Annual Golf Tournament held at the Willowick Golf Course.
We had over 240 players at this event and even had a player, Chris Reidel, hit the Hole-in-One to win a
Hyundai Car or $25,000 provided by Garden Grove Hyundai.
