Bad for WeHo businesses:
Labor costs will be 30% higher than Beverly Hills and Los Angeles.
Bad for WeHo residents:
Where will WeHo’s residents on fixed incomes eat or shop in our city?
Bad for employees still recovering from
COVID government-mandated shutdowns and increased costs of goods who may now face unemployment - again.
#WhyNow
What’s the rush?
No analysis, minimal community input. Ramming this harmful measure through will lead to unintended consequences.
The City Council is considering a citywide $17.64 minimum wage covering all employees – the highest in the United States.

This ordinance also requires businesses large and small to provide compensated and uncompensated sick time (over 4.5 weeks) as time off. Who will be left?
WeHo businesses, particularly the small, family-owned businesses, including LGBTQ and minority-owned, already endure high rents and suffered tremendously under COVID-19 shutdowns. We’re facing increased costs because of a global supply crisis. Now this?
WeHo businesses support livable workforce wages. But this unprecedented wage hike will hurt WeHo employees, residents, business owners and consumers. What’s the rush?
Why would anyone want to open a business in our city when they can do so across the street in Beverly Hills or LA for 30% less?
How many of our city’s current businesses will relocate because of unexpected increased labor costs?
And how many jobs will be lost in the process?
