纽森签署法案：大型开发项目须遵守地方劳工标准
加州州长加文·纽森10月5日签署了州参议员杰西·阿雷金提出的法案，要求大型开发项目遵守项目所在地的劳工标准。据Berkeleyside 10月5日报道，该法案的直接起因是伯克利市两个住房项目——大学大道2029号23层住宅楼与杜兰特大道2425号20层住宅楼——利用加州“密度奖励”法，豁免了伯克利市要求大型项目提供学徒培训与医保的地方劳工条例。新法实施后，类似项目将不能再通过密度奖励绕开地方劳工规定。阿雷金曾任伯克利市市长，该劳工条例正是他在任内推动通过的。开发商方面曾反对称，劳工强制要求会增加数百万美元成本，可能让项目无利可图。
Newsom Signs Bill Requiring Large Developments to Meet Local Labor Standards
California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill by state Senator Jesse Arreguín on October 5 requiring large developments to comply with local labor standards. According to Berkeleyside on October 5, the bill was prompted by two Berkeley housing projects — a 23-story development at 2029 University Ave. and a 20-story building at 2425 Durant Ave. — that used California's “density bonus” law to exempt themselves from Berkeley's ordinance requiring major projects to provide apprenticeship programs and health coverage. Under the new law, similar projects can no longer use density bonuses to bypass local labor rules. Arreguín, a former Berkeley mayor, championed the labor ordinance while in office. Developers had opposed it, arguing the mandates add millions in costs and can make projects unviable.
