California: Two new laws, two new business opportunities

The Governator, Governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger introduced a flurry of new laws during the start of 2009, two of which have caught my interest as possible short term business opportunities.

The first law of interest has to do with fire prevention. With the risk of wild fires being so high in California, law makers have decided to introduce a law which requires homeowners to clear bush that is 100 feet outside of their houses. This law opens the door for people who own landscaping businesses to earn extra revenue. Even for people who have no experience in landscaping, this is an opportunity, as landscaping, if you have the right equipment, can be easy. The new law also calls for better pest control in California forests. If Law Makers or the relevant agency allows private entities to help in this renewed effort to control pests that destroy/kills trees in California Forests, then this is another opportunity for Pest Control businesses.

The other law of interest has to do with Mobile homes. New requirements calls for all newly manufactured mobile homes to have smoke detectors in all rooms designed for sleeping. It also calls for Seismic braces (for safety during earthquakes) and water heaters fired by gas. So their is an obvious opportunity for businesses that sell smoke detectors Seismic Braces and Water heaters. I most admit however that most Mobile home manufacturers will stick to the suppliers they already have, but may think of new suppliers given the state of the economy and their aim to reduce the cost of supplies.
