GOVERNMENT
RELATIONS
COMMITTEE
The Government Relations Committee ensures that AGC San Diego keeps
a high-profile position in the “political arena” at the local, regional, state
and national levels. This involves a continual analysis of all political efforts
affecting the industry. The committee annually develops legislative positions
for distribution to the membership. It works closely with our legislative
advocate in Sacramento and with the AGC of California and AGC of America
on all statewide and federal legislative matters. The committee is responsible
for advocacy of adequate infrastructure investment.
During 2015, the Committee worked with AGC staff, state legislative
advocates Dave Ackerman, Jamie Khan, and Paul Gladfelty, and AGC of
America’s team led by Jeff Shoaf on a number of key local, state, and federal
issues.
The Committee also worked with the Engineering and General Contractors’
Council to address a number of legislative issues, including stormwater runoff liability, expansion of prevailing wages on ready-mix concrete drivers,
and transportation funding.
