Building Industry Association - Orange County Chapter

Our BIA Orange County chapter leadership, along with coalition partners from the California Apartment Association, the AGC of California (Associated General Contractors) and the Orange County Business Council, met with the Orange County Supervisor Districts 2, 4, and 5 to discuss a proposed labor ordinance.

With the proposed ordinance potentially impacting development, housing, and construction projects throughout Orange County, this was a vital opportunity to share concerns and provide input regarding elements within the proposed labor ordinance. The discussions also included subcontractor disclosure requirements, enforcement language, and alignment with existing state laws.

BIASC and its regional chapters are playing an active role to remove barriers to homebuilding – working to streamline the home construction process and keep costs down. Our engaged team is working with policymakers and industry partners to shape public policies that build communities, create jobs, and ensure housing opportunities for everyone.

We sincerely thank OC Chapter Board President Joe Oftelie (Warmington Residential), Eric Nelson (Trumark Homes) and BIASC Vice President of Government Affairs for leading the BIASC for this effort on behalf of our members.
