We <br />are the joint Labor and Management Cooperation Committee and Trust Fund for the unionized <br />plumbing, piping, and HVACR industries in Southern California. <br />We believe that the Applicant has made a great choice in their commitment to hiring locally. <br />Hiring from the pool of professional, skilled, and responsible contractors of the region will have <br />an appreciable effect on the entire local economy. <br />That decision will help responsible contractors to provide well-paying jobs with benefits to some <br />of the most hardworking people in Santa Ana and ensure positive impacts throughout the <br />region. <br />We stand completely behind this project. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Jarrod Ferruccio <br />Executive Director, P.I.P.E. <br /> <br />
