You won't want to miss "Davis-Bacon and Related Acts Three-Part Webinar Series:Understanding, Influencing and Complying with FederalPrevailing Wage Requirements" kicking off February 21,at 1PM MST. The application of the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts(DBRA) to federal and federally assisted constructionprojects leaves many contractors uncertain about therequirements of federal prevailing wage laws and theconsequences of non-compliance. Failure to complyputs covered contractors at risk of catastrophicconsequences, from losing money on contracts due tofailure to understand labor costs, to high dollar back payand related penalties, to debarment from future federalwork. Adding further confusion, the U.S. Department ofLabor (DOL) recently enacted a massive overhaul andupdate to the regulations governing the DBRA. Thisthree-part webinar series seeks to help contractorsavoid those risks by educating staff tasked with DBRAcompliance and administration on coverage,requirements, pitfalls, and enforcement of these laws.CONTINUE READING >Copyright: AGC NMAPRIL 2024APRIL 4TH 11:30 AM - 4:30 PMProject Manager Development Program - CLICK HERE APRIL 5TH 8:00 AM - 12:00 PMScaffolding Safety - ENGLISH AND SPANISH - CLICK HERE

that only small firms received SBA assistance, in addition to determining eligibility forfederal contracts.”But in recent years, continued Williams, small businesses have begun to see theirchances for securing federal contracts decline. “Many agencies use a receipt-basedstandard, and if it is too low, it may prevent the business from fully participatingbecause they can lose their size status due to a high revenue-generating contract.”“This,” added Williams, “is nothing more than punishment for a business succeeding,which is antithetical to the American dream.”In a public posting, the SBA has noted that the agency’s size standards are “reviewedevery five years.”The agency added: “SBA takes comments from the public into consideration beforefinalizing proposed rules on size standards."The agency adds that SBA welcomes suggestions on "alternative methodologies,factors, datasets, effects on competition, and approaches that make sense in thecurrent economic environment.”41BUILTENVIRONMENTCopyright: Canva Pro

A bill that will set up a small agencytasked with developing a statewidehousing plan is now working its waythrough the New Mexico StateLegislature as that body nears the end ofits winter session.As proposed by Senator Michael Padilla,Senate Bill 71 would see the creation ofan Office of Housing that would be apart of the Department of Finance andAdministration, taking on a holisticapproach to a myriad of housing issuesacross the state.HOUSING BILL NEARINGFINAL VOTE IN NEWMEXICO LEGISLATUREBy Garry Boulard, Construction Reporter 02/12/2024Copyright: Canva ProAccording to an analysis of the bill puttogether by the Legislative FinanceCommittee, the Office of Housing wouldstudy “housing issues and work withgovernments and private developers toplan projects and acquire funding toaddress housing needs.”The office would also coordinate itsefforts with “regional housing authorities,local governments, tribal governments,and private housing stakeholders,” as wellas any number of state agencies, to makeup an annual state housing plan.While lawmakers have lauded the intentof the bill, some have wondered if in itswork, the proposed Office of Housing willend up duplicating the work of the existingNew Mexico Mortgage Finance Authority.Despite those reservations, the measurehas won the support of Governor MichelleLujan Grisham, along with the NorthernNew Mexico Builders Association, SantaFe Home Builders Association, andGreater Albuquerque Chamber ofCommerce.According to an estimate produced by theOffice of the State Auditor, the proposedOffice of Housing would require around$375,000 annually to support a four-person staff.The measure is currently under review inthe Senate Finance Committee.80REAL ESTATE NEWSNEW MEXICOBUILTENVIRONMENT

By design, the Low Income Housing TaxCredits have the potential of subsidizingup to 70% of the low income unit costs inany given project.Four developers have thus far applied forthe tax credits to be applied to projects invaried sections of the city, with twoplanned for the west side and two moreon the far east side.In response, members of the El Paso CityCouncil have approved Letters of NoObligation, allowing those projects toadvance without any one project havingan advantage over another.84BUILTENVIRONMENTHome insurance rates are continuing toincrease, and in some cases greatly so,according to an industry surveyindicating that some of the mostsubstantial hikes have been seen in theWest.Looking at the overall rate trendlinesfrom 2021 to last year, the Topeka,Kansas-based insurance brokerPolicygenius puts four Western states inthe top five for cost increases, with NewMexico leading the way with a 47% jump.In real dollar terms, that means that thestate's annual costs have risen from anaverage of around $855 to just under$1,300.

The other three states in the top five: Colorado, where rates jumping from just under$1,400 to just over $2,000 are making up a 46% increase; and Idaho, also with a 46%increase, and costs rising from $552 to just over $800.The final Western state at the top of the list: Texas, with costs rising from $1,471 to$2,141, also comprising a 46% increase.Leading the list, and not for the first time, is Florida with a massive 68% increase anddollar cost going from $1,127 to just under $1,900.According to the publication Money, explanation for the rise in Florida is simple: theSunshine State experiences an average of three hurricanes a year. But the risinginsurance costs in the West are due mostly to the advent of wildfires."Wildfire risk isn't just making it more expensive to get insurance in affected states,"notes the publication. "It's also making it harder for some people to find coverage at allas insurers are reportedly reducing exposure in certain areas."Other states in the West were similarly hard hit, but not as much as the top five.Arizona has seen a jump of 26%; Nevada, 16%; and Utah, 29%. Overall, according to the Policygenius Home Insurance Pricing Report, insurance costshave gone up nationally by 21%, with states in the Northeast experiencing the smallestjumps. Vermont, for example, saw a 7% increase.A report released late last year by the Congressional Research Service also notedanother facet of the homeowners’ insurance challenge: areas where insurers may bepulling out altogether, "leaving people unable to find insurance at all except for state-created insurers of last resort."Such entities, the report continued, "may offer coverage that is more expensive or lesscomplete than private coverage."85BUILTENVIRONMENTCopyright: Canva Pro

AGC would like to share an exciting tool to demonstrate the economic impact of infrastructure investment inNew Mexico - ‘AGC Construction Impact Model’.AGC of America partnered with Brian R. Lewandowski, University of Colorado Boulder to produce a flexiblebut simple economic model that calculates the impact on employment and output in each state from varioussizes of investment in different types of construction.The below link provides an explanation and instructions for using the model. The table below shows an example of the results obtainable from the model, in this case, the total instatejobs (construction, supplier and induced jobs throughout the state's economy) and total instate output from a$1 billion investment over one year in three types of construction: highways, nonresidential buildings, orother nonresidential structures (infrastructure).Users can choose from:Seven other types of investment in single- or multifamily construction, repair and maintenance, orarchitectural and engineering services. Any dollar amountAny starting yearAny duration for the investmentIn addition to total instate jobs and output, the model shows separately the impact on construction, supplierand induced jobs, output, and value added (or state gross domestic product, the amount of labor income andprofits added by the investment), and the 10 sectors that receive the most additional spending.To access AGC’s ConstructionImpact Tool click here.
