CALIFORNIANS PASS PROPOSITIONS 64 AND 1A
Two statewide propositions supported by C.A.R. were approved
by voters during yesterday's election. 58.9 percent of voters
said yes to Proposition 64, the measure to stop shakedown
lawsuits and require attorneys to actually have a client who
has been harmed before suing small businesses. Earlier this
month, the State IMPAC Trustees approved $30,000 for this
campaign, bringing the total contributions to Yes on Proposition
64 to more than $230,000. Local associations contributed approximately
$14,000 from local IMPAC funds. This is an important win for
C.A.R. and its allies, who have been working to reform the
Unfair Competition Law for years. Proposition 1A, the historic
bipartisan agreement between local governments and the Governor
to prevent the State Legislature from raiding local government
funds after 2006, also passed on Tuesday, with 83.6 percent
of voters approving the measure. IMPAC contributed $50,000
to the Yes on Proposition 1A campaign.
REAL ESTATE CONSTRUCTION SPENDING TOPS $1 TRILLION
According to a report released by the U.S. Census Bureau on
Monday, the value of total construction put in place during
September was estimated at a seasonally adjusted annual rate
of $1,013.9 billion, nearly unchanged from the revised August
estimate of $1,014.0 billion. This represents an increase
of 8.9 percent compared with the September 2003 estimate of
$930.8 billion. September 2004 was the second straight month
where the projected rate of spending topped $1 trillion. The
report also estimated spending on private construction, including
residential and non-residential construction, at a seasonally
adjusted annual rate of $777.5 billion, 0.1 percent below
the revised August estimate. Total spending on private residential
construction was estimated at $551.6 billion. Spending on
total public construction was estimated at a seasonally adjusted
annual rate of $236.4 billion. Public residential construction
spending was $8.34 billion, roughly even with the August 2004
rate and 18.5 percent above the September 2003 rate.
