Santa Clara County lawmakers want to give 1,000 small businesses a break on more fees just a month after nixing health permit fees. The proposal, introduced by Supervisors Cindy Chavez and Susan Ellenberg, would eliminate weights and measures device registration fees for the rest of the calendar year. The plan will be considered at Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting. According to a county report, there are roughly 2,000 retail businesses, including grocers, that operate scanner pricing systems and use various weighing and measuring devices.

Mixed reactions accompany South Bay minimum wage increases

I am all for raising wages, Vartan said. My problem is being told how to do it. The reality is, customers pay for everything. If expenses go up, so do prices. Myers-Lipton said, however, that is what is expected. A 2 percent to 3 percent increase was something both Myers-Lipton and the UC Berkeley study predicted. The numbers are clear about the positive impact of the minimum wage (increase), Myers-Lipton said. The pandemic has crippled much of the service industry, which employs a disproportionate number of low-wage and minimum-wage workers, many of whom are Black and Latino. Some business owners say lost revenue due to the pandemic is an even greater reason they should fear a wage increase.
