SAN DIEGO – Mayor Todd Gloria issued the following statement after the City Council approved his proposal to establish an overarching project labor agreement that establishes the terms and conditions of employment on most City-funded construction projects: 

“The Citywide project labor agreement approved by the City Council today ensures that critically needed City infrastructure projects get done safely and efficiently, providing us with a reliable source of skilled and trained workers and prioritizing the employment of local residents for good-paying jobs. I am grateful to the San Diego County Building and Construction Trades Council for their partnership on this agreement and the voters of San Diego, whose wisdom in approving Measure D in 2022 made it possible. I would also like to thank Councilmember Raul Campillo for his leadership in getting this agreement passed.”
