Comment
To whom it may concern,

I am a licensed landscape contractor in California.
I have read the bill, which alleges that the alternative technology
is equivalent to gas powered engines.  This is completely false. 
My company uses the battery powered equipment, in addition to gas
powered - and there is a very clear winner here.  Gas powered
equipment is far more powerful, efficient, and cost effective.

1/1/24 does not allow enough time for electric/battery-powered
commercial grade landscape equipment to be able to handle the
demands of professional landscape work.

Please allow gasoline-powered commercial grade landscape equipment
to be sold until at least 2028, so equipment can be further
developed, costs can come down and supply chain issues be solved.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
Robert Olsen
