    Greetings and thank you for your commitment to building affordable housing in Oakland. As a member of EBHO and a person of faith, I am in support of building affordable housing in Oakland to meet housing needs. I am concerned that requiring a PLA on projects supported with Measure U funds will increase costs and slow needed construction. Quality jobs are possible without a PLA, and I urge you to vote No on the PLA proposal.
