Subject: Inclusion of a Small to Medium Business Category in the GGRF Investment Plan
Comment:
Callander Associates Landscape Architecture Inc. is a California
Certified Green Business, recognized by the County of San Mateo. We
received technical assistance from our local Green Business Program
to become recognized by our local government. As a result, we saved
electricity, increased recycling and composting, and switched to
greener chemistries, all of which provide multiple environmental
and economic benefits.
 
We could still do more with additional assistance and rebates.
Small businesses are a large part of the economy of this State. 
Most of us do not have environmental staff to focus on  greening
our business, but if we are provided technical assistance, we are
eager to save resources, save money and attract customers. The
California Green Business Program is a successful one-stop shop for
small to medium sized businesses like purs to go green.
 
We highly recommend any small business go through the program, and
believe that many small businesses making changes like we did can
have a big impact. We strongly encourage your Board, the Governor’s
office, and the State legislature to consider including a small
business element in your investment plan.
 
Thank you,
A. Mark Slichter
Callander Associates Landscape Architecture Inc.
