Comment
We have been in the business of landscape and gardening repair
equipment for the last 20 years.  We have been providing service to
small companies and individuals in the gardening industry. They
have been our main business structure and they have been concerned
about this new law and most of them have been commenting about
moving to another states to continue their business or moving to
another country. This law will not only affect our business but our
small community which most of our customers are hispanics and their
main resource for income is their gardening work. They are
concerned about all the money they have to spend in batteries for
their equipment since they sometime spend more than an hour with a
gas powered blower on a single job and the only powered leaf blower
available the battery only lasts 45 min to an hour so they will
have to buy like 6-7 batteries which run over $1000 each and they
will have to make sure they charge them every night and have to buy
a charger for each of them which also run over $150 each.  This is
going to make our customers consider moving to another states where
they can still continue with their work. If our customers start
doing this I will have to let go of my employees and will have to
close down my business after 20 years, please consider all these
concerns from my customers and from my employees. Thank you.
