MARIN BUILDERS ASSOCIATION AND AGRICULTURAL INSTITUTE OF MARIN CELEBRATE PARTNERSHIPDecember 10th – The Marin Builders

Association (MBA) and Agricultural Institute of

Marin (AIM) finalize a partnership that will seek

to ensure the proposed permanent Farmers

Market will be locally sourced.

The two organizations recently formalized

a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)

that will provide the foundation for the groups

working together on the future permanent home

for the Marin Farmers Market. Details of the

agreement include the MBA leadership working

with members to identify in-kind donations

and services to assist with the construction

of the new permanent farmers market. In turn

AIM plans to formally recognize the efforts

with a permanent inscription on the building

recognizing the organization and its members,

The permanent farmers market and

educational center will make healthy, locally

grown food more accessible to people of

all ages, abilities and economic capacities;

educate eaters and farmers about sustainable

food and farming; and promote healthy eating

and local living economies. The new facilities

will enhance economic opportunities for local

contractors and small local food producers

while promoting public health. Through

increased farmers market activities and

educational programs, AIM will elevate the

visibility of sustainable food and farms, and

increase community engagement around food,

nutrition and sustainability.

Brigitte Moran, CEO of

AIM, stated, “The Market Hall

and Canopy will be a landmark

project celebrating local

agriculture, local economies,

and local communities. Having

MBA’s members help us build

community makes perfect sense”.

Rick Wells, CEO of MBA

stated, “All of us at the MBA are excited about

this partnership. It is such a natural fit for

our organization to partner with AIM on this

amazing community benefit. I thank Brigitte

and her team for their commitment to help build

a locally sourced community asset.”

Agricultural Institute of Marin (AIM) is a

501(c)3 non-profit which runs 7 award-winning

farmers markets in the Bay Area. AIM’s mission

is to educate the public about the nutritional

and economic benefits of buying locally grown

food directly from farmers, and to connect and

support communities and agriculture. AIM is

in the pre-development stage of building a

permanent home for the Marin Farmers Market.

www.Agriculturalinstitute.org

The Marin Builders Association serves

the construction industry by promoting high

ethical and professional standards, providing

quality services to its members, and working

responsibly with the community for the

enhancement of the building industry. The

association recognizes its responsibility to

the well being of the community and the

environment. More info at www.marinba.org .

Also In This Update

• More Information on SB 8 (Hertzberg)

Which Would Replace Proposition 30

Bill Creating Penalty for Not Calling Dig

Alert to Be Re-Introduced

With the effects of the PG&E gas line explosion

still weighing heavy on his mind because the

San Bruno tragedy was in his district, Senator

Jerry Hill plans to re-introduce legislation in

early January that will create penalties in the

law for contractors who are caught excavating

without having contacted Dig Alert to have the

site marked properly. While the legislation is

not in print yet, his chief of staff Tony Marino

has informed me that the language will be

severe enough that “no one will like it!” It

will be the senator’s hope that because it will

be so draconian, the myriad stakeholders will

all ‘come to the table’ to re-write it in a way

that results in fines, penalties and possibly an

‘excavation oversight board’ that would be

charged with hearing each and every case in

which a citation was issued. The board would

then ultimately mete out the penalties and fines.

If this board were created, it would also be

responsible for hearing cases filed against

utilities who failed to come out and mark

despite being called by an excavator, and for

mismarking that resulted in damage costs to

contractors. The bill would also remove the

current exemption that Cal Trans’ ‘enjoys’

which allows them not to have to currently

participate in the marking requirements under

the law. There is also contemplation that

homeowners would be required to call prior to

digging in their own yards.

As more information becomes available, you

will be the first to know!

More Information on SB 8 (Hertzberg)

Which Would Replace Proposition 30

Several weeks ago I wrote about a new bill that

was introduced, SB 8, by newly-elected (and

former Assembly Speaker) Bob Hertzberg that

would replace Proposition 30 of two years’ ago

that increased sales and use taxes. Attached is

a copy of the bill.

Senate Bill 8, the Upward Mobility Act,

would raise $10 billion in sales and use taxes

to replace the $7 billion Proposition 30 raised

largely from taxes on the wealthy. Prop. 30

was passed by voters in 2012 and was heavily

supported by Gov. Jerry Brown. Prop. 30

expires in 2018. SB8 would take effect in 2019.

Oddly, SB8 largely would target such

Democratic Party constituencies as

professionals and service-sector businesses

with more than $100,000 in gross income.

Health care and education services would be

exempted.

The money would be spent this way: $3 billion

would go to K-12 schools and community

colleges, $2 billion to the university systems, $3

billion to local governments and $2 billion to a

new earned-income tax credit for poor families.

The reasoning behind SB8 was spelled out by

columnist George Skelton:

“California is relying less on the sales tax,

which applies only to purchased goods, while

leaning heavily on the richest 1 percent, whose

incomes fluctuate like a roller-coaster.

“In 1950, the sales tax generated 60 percent

of all state revenue, the income tax just 10

percent. Today, the sales tax brings in around

25 percent, the income tax more than 60

percent.”

Under current law, the sales tax is applied to

concrete items, such as a car or computer;

food is exempt. The reasoning behind not

taxing services is that what is offered – such

as business consulting or legal advice – is

intangible. Moreover, many such services

BILL CREATING PENALTY FOR NOT CALLING DIG ALERT TO BE RE-INTRODUCEDpresented by Phil Vermeulen, MBA Legislative Advocate




easily could be outsourced to another state

to avoid taxation – such as hiring computer

programmers in Texas or India.

The services tax also especially would hit

small- and medium-sized businesses, such as

independent real estate brokers, auto repairmen

and handymen.

Tax boost

By costing $10 billion to the $7 billion of Prop.

30, SB8 would be a 43 percent tax boost. And

although the California economy is performing

well now, it’s impossible to say how it will be

doing four years from now.

A services tax also would encourage the

growth of black markets. For example, in

September the Los Angeles Times reported:

“Nine people were arrested in raids targeting

75 locations, and $90 million was seized — $70

million in cash. In one condo, agents found $35

million stuffed in banker boxes. At a mansion

in Bel-Air, they discovered $10 million in duffel

bags.

“Federal officials said they believe that the

drug organizations have used businesses

throughout Los Angeles to convert their vast

earnings into pesos, turning the city into a hub

for ‘trade-based money laundering.”

People in black markets obviously don’t pay

sales, income or other taxes.

GOP minority

Although Republicans remain a minority in

both houses of the California Legislature, on

Nov. 4 they gained enough new seats to prevent

a two-thirds Democratic supermajority.

All Republicans are expected to oppose any tax

increase of any kind.

So it’s the lack of a supermajority that would

prevent SB8 from being passed.

Shift to non-profit economy

Oddly, SB8 is being advanced at a time when

some tax-generating assets are being taken

off the tax rolls, also benefiting the rich at the

expense of everybody else.

One is the current shift of private electric

utilities to non-profit municipal electricity-

buying cooperatives, called Community

Choice Aggregation. Such cooperatives tout

savings to customers for avoiding taxes paid by

such regulated electric utilities as Pacific Gas

& Electric, Southern California Edison and San

Diego Gas & Electric.

Currently, 16 cities in the South Bay area of

Southern California are planning to opt out

of Edison and set up their own cooperatives,

with the wealthy cities of Redondo Beach and

Manhattan Beach leading the way. That will

be lost corporate taxes to the state and property

taxes for local government. Effectively, the

wealthy people in those areas are sloughing off

their tax obligations to those in other areas.

As reported by CalWatchdog.com, electric

buying cooperatives not only avoid paying

corporate taxes but offload expensive green

power costs onto federal taxpayers by buying

heavily subsidized green power and Renewable

Energy Credits.

The long-term experience of the State of

Illinois with electric buying cooperatives is

that they show initial benefits to customers, but

don’t make economic sense in the long term.

Assembly Bill 2145 of 2014 proposed to make it

more difficult for cities to form electric buying

cooperatives. However, it died in the state

Senate in September.

Skelton’s article of this week on SB 8, go to:

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy

New Year to everyone!


New Construction Laws for 2015

Over 4200 bills were introduced by the California Legislature

in the 2013-2014 session. Below are summaries of some of

the more important bills affecting contractors in their roles as

contractors, effective January 1, 2015 unless otherwise noted.

Many other bills will impact them in other roles, such as being

businesses, taxpayers, and employers. For MLC’s Law Note

reporting on changes in the laws affecting employers in 2015,

please visit our website’s Employment Law Notes page. Each

of the summaries are brief, focusing on the gist of the bill, while

most of the bills have additional provisions that are not men-

tioned. Links are provided to the full text of each of the bills

for those wanting to know in detail the provisions of the new

law. Lastly, reference is made to failed bills that are likely to be

revisited next session.

Retention Cap Protection

5% retention cap loophole closed. AB 1705 (Williams D)

SB 293 last year capped, through the end of 2015, public works

retention at 5% with certain exceptions including a finding by

the public entity that the project is “substantially complex”.

Entities started immediately abusing this law by finding es-

sentially every project to be “substantially complex”. This law

extends the operation of these provisions to January 1, 2018

and requires that the bid documents include details explaining

the basis for any “substantially complex” finding. This transpar-

ency will allow contractors to challenge unfounded findings and

enforce the 5% retention cap.

Design-Build

Design-build projects continue to gain ground in California.

New health care district authorized to use design-build. SB 268

(Gaines R)

Each health care district has specific duties and powers re-

specting the creation, administration, and maintenance of the

districts, including to purchase, receive, take, hold, lease, use,

and enjoy property of every kind and description within and

without the limits of the district. This law authorizes the Last

Frontier Health Care District to use this design-build process

when contracting for the construction of a building and im-

provements directly related to a hospital or health facility build-

ing at the Modoc Medical Center.

Transit design-build authority extended. SB 1433 (Hill D)

The Local Agency Public Construction Act until January 1,

2015, authorizes a transit operator, as defined, to enter into a

design-build contract, as specified. Current law requires certain

information submitted in this regard to be provided under pen-

alty of perjury. This law extends the authorization for a transit

operator to enter into a design-build contract until January 1,

2017.

Payment Bonds

Specified deposits allowed lieu of surety payment bond. AB

1856 (Wilk R)

http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201320140SB268&search_keywords=






This law allows all bonds and notes of the United States or the

State of California and cashier’s checks, payable to the officer,

to be deposited with the officer in lieu of a bond, as specified.

Payment bond claimants may have to deal with the entity’s con-

tracting officer instead of a surety in event of nonpayment.

Prevailing Wage Contractor Protection

Contractor protected from late prevailing wage notice. AB 1939

(Daly D)

This law empowers a contractor to sue a private owner for

increased costs, including labor costs, penalties, and legal

fees incurred as a result of any decision by the Department of

Industrial Relations, the Labor and Workforce Development

Agency, or a court that classifies the project or any part thereof

as a public work after bid acceptance, contract signing, or start

of work, except under circumstances specified. This law shifts

from contractor to owner the risk if improperly failing to classify

the project as public work.

Public Works Builder’s Risk Insurance

Notice of deductible on master builder’s risk policy required. AB

2376 (Weber D)

This law requires public entities to outline in requests for bids

or proposals the contractor’s deductible under the Director of

General Services’ master builders’ risk insurance program for

state construction projects during construction.

Licensure Enforcement

CSLB gains site access and citation authority. SB 315 (Lieu D)

This law requires employers to grant free access to all places of

labor to the CSLB’s enforcement division when participating in

the activities of the Joint Enforcement Strike Force on the Under-

ground Economy. Further, the CSLB’s authorized persons are

empowered to issue written notices to appear in court.

Contractor license applicants must provide tax ID numbers. SB

1159 (Lara)

No later than January 1, 2016, this bill requires the State

Contractors Licensing Board to require an applicant to pro-

vide the Board either an individual tax identification number or

social security number if the applicant is an individual. The bill

would require the CSLB to report to the Franchise Tax Board,

and subject a licensee to a penalty, for failure to provide that

information.

Lease-Leaseback

Prequalification process required for school lease-leasebacks.

AB 1581 (Buchanan D)

Requires, until January 1, 2019, the lease instrument and the

agreement with the lowest responsible bidder to include a

requirement for the person, firm, or corporation that constructs

a building to be leased and used by the school district upon a

designated site, including, but not limited to, the prime contrac-

tor and, if used, electrical, mechanical, and plumbing subcon-

tractors, to comply with the above-described prequalification

questionnaire and financial statement requirements when the

agreement is for a public project using moneys received pursu-

ant to the Leroy F. Greene School

Facilities Act of 1998 or moneys from future state school bonds

that involves a projected expenditure of $1,000,000 or more.

Requires a school district using lease-lease back construc-

tion procurement to use the same prequalification process as

required for design-bid-build construction.

Competitive Bidding

Raised threshold for competitive bidding on UC projects. SB

502 (Block D)


1 of 4



















Current law provides that where the Regents of the University

of California are of the view that a project of $100,000 or less

does not require the application of all provisions of law relating

to competitive bidding by the university, the regents shall solicit

bids in writing and award the work to the lowest responsible

bidder or reject all bids. This bill raises this dollar threshold

for the cost of a project to $640,000. This bill contains other

related provisions and other existing laws.

Gas Pipeline Work Notice

Gas pipeline work notice required. AB 1937 (Gordon)

Requires a gas corporation to provide not less than 3 working

days’ notice to a school or hospital prior to undertaking non-

emergency excavation or construction of a gas pipeline when

the work is located within 500 feet of the school or hospital.

Recycled Paving Materials

Recycled paving materials use requirements. AB 2355 (Levine)

Requires, by January 1, 2017, a local agency that has jurisdic-

tion over a street or highway to 1) either adopt the standards

developed by the Department of Transportation for recycled

paving materials and for recycled base, sub-base, and pervi-

ous backfill materials, or 2) discuss at a regularly scheduled

public hearing of the local agency’s legislative or other govern-

ing body why the standards are not being adopted.

OSHA Safety Violations

OSHA violations abatement rules. AB 1634 (Skinner)

Enacts various provisions of law related to an employer’s obli-

gation to abate an alleged workplace safety and health hazard.

Prohibits the Division of Occupational Safety and Health from

granting for serious violations, abatement or credit for abate-

ment unless the employer has abated the violation or has

submitted a statement to the division in accordance with exist-

ing law, and would additionally require supporting evidence

with the statement where necessary. The bill would authorize

the division to grant such a modification only if the violation has

been abated or the signed statement and supporting evidence

is received within 10 working days after the end of the period

fixed for abatement.

Failed Bills Likely to be Revisited

Los Angeles Unified School District: best value procurement:

pilot. AB 1971 (Bocanegra D)

Would establish a pilot program to authorize the Los Angeles

Unified School District to use, before January 1, 2017, a best

value procurement method for bid evaluation and selection for

public projects that exceed $1,000,000. The bill would establish

various requirements applicable to the use of the best value

procurement method under this authorization. These provisions

would be repealed on January 1, 2020. This bill contains other

related provisions.

Public contracts: change orders. AB 2471 (Frazier D)

Would require a public entity, as defined, when authorized

to order changes or additions to the work in a public works

contract awarded to the lowest bidder, to issue a change order

promptly, and no later than 60 days after the extra work is per-

formed and documentation has been submitted, as specified.

The bill would, if this requirement is not met, make the public

entity liable to the original contractor for the completed extra

work.

The Capitol Connection Q&A for Contractors By Shauna Krause, Capitol Services, Inc.

A Sunshine State contractor has a Golden

State dream that is a coast-to-coast wakeup

call on waivers. First, a General contractor

with another dream wants advice on how to

obtain specialty licenses for his children’s

future…

Q: I hold a General Building license. I know

that I can handle most trades with the “B” but

would like to do some specialty work by itself.

What I’m thinking about is getting a license

to install decks and another to do construction

cleanup. In both instances, my goal is help my

kids start up a contracting business and thought

this would be a good place. Will I need to take

a test? What are your thoughts?

A: Thank you for your email. You’re correct

that a “B” can “handle most trades” – as long as

they are a part of an overall General Building

project. If you want to perform only one trade

or craft, a specialty license would generally be

required.

Both Specialties trades you mentioned

fall under the “C-61” (Limited Specialty)

classification. By definition, the CSLB has

divided these into “D” subcategories for

administrative tracking (there are currently 30

such categories). The definitions for the “D”

subcategories were developed by staff and

approved by the Board as a matter of policy.

You could apply for the “D-41” (Siding and

Decking) and “D-63” (Construction cleanup)

license with no further testing. Since the

“C-61” class does not have a trade exam, all

you would need to show is 4 or more years of

full-time experience in each of these trades. If

you’ve been performing or supervising decking

and construction cleanup under your General

license you should have little problem in quickly

securing these additions.

As for the second half of your question, if your

goal is to start a new contracting business,

you’ll need to apply for a new contractor’s

license. This new entity can be a corporation,

LLC or partnership. You could also put your

kids into business as “Sole Owners” but this

would require that you inactivate your existing

license. As for the type of business you decide

on, I would suggest consulting with an attorney

or tax professional. If you have any additional

questions on this or any other licensing matter,

please call me at 866-443-0657. I wish you the

best of luck with this venture.

Q: I am a licensed General Contractor in

Florida and I qualify my own business. I’ve

had the license for 6 months. I have a 4-year BS

degree in Construction Management and over

10 years of construction experience. Would

I qualify for being exempt from the exam in

California?

A: Even with your extensive construction

experience and education you will still be

required to take the law and trade exams in

order to obtain your contractor’s license in

California. There are only a few instances

where an individual can qualify for a waiver

of the exams and if you’d like to discuss those

please feel free to call me.

Winter Preparation

In cold, wet conditions, common dangers include slips and falls, as well as vehicle accidents. Taking simple precautions can prevent accidents and injuries.

Preventing slips:

Areas that may become slick and require extra caution include stairs, ramps, tile floors, parking lots and metal parts of equipment.

• Have an excellent snow and ice removal program in place.

• Place non-skid floor mats and caution signs in slippery, high traffic areas.

• Use traction devices that strap onto shoes when conditions require them.

• Use the right shoes. Anti-slip soles are essential. Shoe soles need to have thin cuts, often called siping, that disperse water and grip the ground.

Driving safety:

• Slips can happen when entering and exiting your vehicle, so be cautious. Use a three-point stance when getting in and out of your vehicle. Use a grab-bar or doorframe for stability.

• Be aware that the vehicle itself can lose traction, causing uncontrolled skids. − When roads are slick, slow down, leave extra following distance between

yourself and other cars and do not make sudden vehicular movements. − If you begin to skid, turn the wheel in the direction you want the vehicle to go.

Ease your foot off the accelerator, and do not hit the brakes.

• Know the weather conditions you will encounter and plan ahead.

• Inspect your vehicle for proper tires and other winter driving gear.

• Be sure that chains and cold weather gear are on board and ready for use.

• Assume that roads, bridges and exits are icy, and be ready for them.

• Keep lights, windows and mirrors clean. This is especially important in low visibility situations such as darkness, ice or fog.

• If pulling over due to an emergency, increase your visibility to passing traffic. Activate the vehicle’s hazard warning lights, wear your safety vest, set up a warning triangle or flares and assume that ongoing traffic does not see you.

Remember, ice is twice as slippery at 30˚F as at 0˚F.

Preparación para el invierno

En condiciones de frío y humedad, peligros comunes incluyen resbalones y caídas, así como accidentes de vehículos. Tomando precauciones sencillas pueden prevenir accidentes y lesiones.

Prevención de resbalones:

Las áreas que puedan ser resbaladizas y requieren mayor precaución incluyen las escaleras, las rampas, los pisos de mosaico, los estacionamientos y las partes metálicas de los equipos.

• Tenga un excelente programa para quitar la nieve y el hielo.

• Coloque señales y alfombras antideslizantes en áreas resbaladizas y de alta concurrencia.

• Utilice dispositivos de tracción ajustables para los zapatos cuando las condiciones así lo requieran.

• Use el calzado adecuado. Suelas antideslizantes son imprescindibles. Las suelas de los zapatos necesitan tener cortes delgados, a menudo llamados laminillas, que dispersan el agua y se adhieren al suelo.

Seguridad al conducir:

• Los resbalones también pueden ocurrir al entrar y salir de su vehículo, así que tenga cuidado. Su propio vehículo puede perder la tracción y provocar un desliz que no pueda maniobrar.

• Utilice una posición de tres puntos al entrar y salir del vehículo. Apóyese en el pasamanos o en el marco de la puerta para mayor estabilidad.

• Tenga en cuenta que el vehículo puede perder tracción, haciendo derrapes incontrolados. − Cuando las carreteras están resbaladizas, disminuya la velocidad, deje distancia de seguimiento

adicional entre usted y otros autos y no haga movimientos vehiculares bruscos. − Si empieza a derrapar, gire el volante en la dirección que desea que el vehículo vaya. Afloje del

acelerador, y no aplique el freno.

• Entérese de las condiciones del tiempo que encontrará y planifíquese con antelación.

• Revise que su vehículo tenga los neumáticos apropiados y demás adecuaciones para invierno.

• Asegúrese que las cadenas y los equipos de invierno estén a mano y listos para usarse.

• Asuma que las calles, puentes y salidas están congeladas, y prepárese para ello antes de salir.

• Mantenga limpias las luces, los cristales y los espejos. Esto es especialmente importante en situaciones de baja visibilidad, tales como oscuridad, hielo o niebla.

• Si usted tiene que parar en el arcén en caso de emergencia, aumente su visibilidad para el tránsito. Encienda las luces de advertencia del vehículo, use su chaleco de seguridad, coloque triángulos de advertencia o bengalas para señalar su área de trabajo, encienda las luces intermitentes de emergencia y asuma que el tránsito que se aproxima no puede verle.

Recuerde, el hielo es dos veces tan escurridizo a 30˚F como a 0˚F.

ReadyMarin.orgTraining and education to keep you and your family safe,

warm, and fed in the event of a disaster

In the event of an emergency, our first responders will be overwhelmed. It is critical for citizens to be prepared to take care of themselves, their neighbors, and their community for at least 3 days, and preferably 5-7.

Your pets depend on you to be prepared to help them in an emergency. Whether you are staying in your home or leaving, a little planning will go a long way.
