CBIA calls builders to act

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

I received a release this morning from the California Building Industry Association calling for members to voice their concern of a new proposed law by the California Resources Air Board. This new law would put a new cap on emission gasses which the CBIA says would put a greater burden on the housing industry. The CBIA expresses urgency and emotion in the release. 

California does have a reputation of having strict building/housing codes. But does this new law go too far? Will it really affect the housing market as harshly as the release implies?

For California builders, what is your opinion of this new change happening in your state?

Check out the release here. The release also includes a link to a page for voicing your concern of the new law.
