my name is doug parrish, the president and c.e.o. of red dipper. we are an l.b.e.d.b.e.s.b.e. small electrical contracting company. we recently got our contractors' license and we asked the board to vote no on item 28. the motion to advance the citywide p.l.a. ordinance to a full d thshould not be fasttracked under the tenure of an appointmented care taker mayor, mayor ell placed until san franciscans were able to elect a new mayor. rushing through legislation that will touch on billions of contract dollars is undemocratics and violates the due process that ul be granted to the smaller minority and women contractors. it will leapfrog the process of committee hearings, not conducive to i a meaningful process of working with minority contractors to find the right minimum threshold to ensure that we and others have an opportunity to get their foot in the door. we respectfully ask you to take action that will allow them to participate fully in the legislative process. as currently drafted we are highly concerned the proposed ordinance will result in harm to communities of color. w
