April showers bring May flowers? What an amazing turn of events
we had in the last week. It would have seemed that Spring was here and flowers were in bloom. Spring is close as for my tomato and pepper plants are growing like weeds. It’s exciting to watch them grow over the last few weeks. It won’t be long and we will be in our gardens cultivating for the summer and fall harvest.
The last snow storm brought an abrupt stop to our Spring Showcase of Homes for the first weekend. What a beautiful second weekend we had to enjoy the homes for the Spring Showcase. Stay tuned for later this year as we announce the participants for the Fall Showcase of Homes. These Builders are very proud of their work and want you to get up close to experience what they have to offer in expertise and knowledge when building or remodeling a home.
Golf is right around the corner and one of the ways we like to get membership out and networking is through our Annual Golf Outing on June 7th. Spots will fill up fast this year as I heard it might be a short summer…. just kidding, let’s enjoy the nice weather before old man winter decides to return. Contact the Rochester Area Builders office for sponsorship opportunities and sign-up.
We are excited to announce that we are working with the Project Build Minnesota group which is a statewide effort to help promote construction careers. Our very own John Eischen will be representing Rochester Area Builders on the Board of Directors.
The link to the website is https://projectbuildmn.org/ and provides resourceful information about how they are trying to lead the efforts of bolstering up the trades. Stay tuned for more exciting information relating to Project Build Minnesota.
Our last job shadow for the year with Kasson-Mantorville school will be April 25th! This is a great opportunity to get local high school kids in front of your business and show them what opportunities are available through our membership. We have had a very strong relationship with Kasson Mantorville over the past couple years and without their partnership, we would not be able to provide these opportunities to you. Please contact the Rochester Area Builders office if you will be interested in volunteering for this event.
Studs, Struts & Stilettos was a fantastic success this year. Thank you to all our sponsors, volunteers, judges, models and designers for this year’s event. Without your generous support, we would not be able to host such a large fundraiser for Rochester Area Habitat for Humanity. Congratulations to all the designers and models for a great show! Make sure to contact the Rochester Area Builders office if you want to be part of this amazing event next year. We also have opportunities available to join the Fashion Show Committee that will start meeting monthly to plan the next big show!
Thank you to Home Depot for hosting Rochester Area Builders Networking Night on March 27th. We had great attendance and plenty of food to go around. We want to also thank our existing members for bringing guests and new members along. It was good to see such great attendance in a wonderful atmosphere. Reminder, that our next Networking Night will be April 24th at Carpet One!
We look forward to seeing you there!

The tax reform bill signed into law in December 2017 changes tax incentives for 2018. Specifically, tax reform expands “bonus depreciation” to allow small businesses and Fleet customers to deduct 100% of the cost of qualifying property placed in service in 2018, including certain vehicles (generally vans and larger trucks and SUVs). The section 179 deduction is still available, but is subject to a $25,000 per-vehicle limitation for many GM SUVs, crossovers and pickup trucks. Also, passenger automobiles (i.e., sedans, coupes, and SUVs/crossovers/trucks weighing 6000lbs or less) are still subject to per-vehicle limitations on total depreciation (section 179 plus bonus depreciation) deductions ($18,000 for both cars and trucks placed in service in 2018). Given the changes in the tax laws, bonus depreciation now provides the greatest benefit to customers purchasing trucks and vans for business use. Although section 179 and its per-vehicle limit still technically apply, they do not affect customers’ ability to immediately deduct 100% of the cost of certain vehicles. In summary: • Car dedications have gone from $11,160 to up to $18,000
• SUVs/Crossovers/Pickups up to 14,000 GVWR went from up to $25,000 with an
aggregate limit of $510,000 to immediate expensing of 100% of purchase price
• Cargo Vans and HD trucks have gone from 100% of purchase price WITH an aggregate limit of $510,000 to 100% of purchase price WITH NO aggregate limit

Jim Gander awarded the North Star Award by the
Gamehaven Boy Scout Council
The Boys Scouts National Court of Honor introduced a new award to join in the prestigious Silver Beaver, Silver Antelope and Silver Buffalo Awards. The award is titled the North Star Award and is presented to non-registered Scouting supporters who have made significant contributions to a council, community, or at the National level. Jim Gander received the award as he is an extremely strong supporter of Gamehaven Boy Scouts. He attends many of their functions and has been a consistent donor and supporter. Jim and his design team at Superior Mechanical have donated all of the design for plumbing and HVAC for the Community Center Building at the Gamehaven Scout Camp. This has been an on going effort and has involved many hours of meetings with the rest of the design team as well as design and redesign efforts by Jim, Eric and many other members of his organization.

During every business cycle, economies experience job
losses followed by subsequent job gains such that, in time, all job losses are made up, and then some. Between January 2008 and February 2010, almost nine million jobs were lost, but by January 2013 the number of employed Americans had almost fully recovered. The typical good news story, right? Not so fast; the educational attainment of the persons employed in the “recovered” jobs were dramatically different than those in the “lost” jobs. This has profound social and economic implications.
While total employment was virtually unchanged on January 2008 and January 2013, millions of workers without college degrees lost jobs and never regained them. For example, the number of employed Americans with less than a high school diploma fell by roughly 1.6 million; the number of high school graduates with jobs fell by about 2.8 million; and the number employed with some college, but no B.A. fell by 225,000. Over that same five years, the number of college-educated Americans with jobs increased by more than 4.3 million!
In the next five years of the expansion, years 2013 through 2017, job growth improved; 10.7 million jobs were created. While every educational group saw gains, the distribution was again severely skewed towards those with more education. Those with less than a high school diploma picked up 744,000 jobs, those with a high school diploma added 720,000 jobs, and employees with some college saw employment
gains of 1.6 million. However, college graduates scooped up 7.6 million jobs, or 71% of all new employment, despite being just 36.5% of the labor force in January 2013.
In short, college graduates gained twice as many jobs as predicted by their share of total jobs in January 2013. And that percentage was already meaningfully higher than the 33.6% that it was on December 2007, the eve of the Great Recession. As a result, the share of jobs held by the other three educational groupings declined. It fell by a whopping 22% for those with less than a high school diploma, 11% for those with a high school diploma, and by just 4% for those with some college (and this includes those with two-year degrees). More education clearly mitigates these negative employment trends.
What is so troubling is that Americans without college degrees, who currently comprise 60% of the labor force, lose employment opportunities regardless of where we are in the business cycle. Worse, many of the less educated men who lose their jobs drop out of the labor force, depriving the economy of millions of workers. At the same time, the national unemployment rate is at a generational low, and employers are desperate for skilled labor. We will soon reach a point where GDP slows simply because of a lack of available workers.
Even though a college education is immensely helpful, pushing all high schoolers to go is a disservice. Worse, telling those that do not
go to college that they are failures just compounds the problem. As a result, more students go to college than ever before, but only 57% of college freshmen complete their degree within six years; many never finish. College should be seen as one option among many.
Another approach is to increase the number of apprenticeship programs. At present, just 0.3% of the total US workforce is in a registered apprentice program, while in Germany it’s almost 4%, 12 times higher! These jobs pay well, and their graduates are far more likely to be fully employed.
The nature of work is changing, and new jobs increasingly demand better skilled workers. Earning nothing more than a high school diploma all but guarantees low wages and long spells of unemployment. While college is an excellent solution, stigmatizing those that do not go is harmful. To that end, giving high school graduates who are not interested in college a wider variety of ways to gain vocational skills and demonstrate employability is critical.

The count of unfilled jobs in the construction sector declined in February, but remains higher than a year ago.
According to the BLS Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) and NAHB analysis, the number of open construction sector jobs came in at 196,000 in February. The post-recession high count of open, unfilled construction jobs was 255,000 in July of last year. The number of open construction sector jobs was 169,000 a year ago.
The open position rate (job openings as a percentage of total employment plus current job openings) for February increased to 2.7%. On a smoothed, twelve-month moving average basis, the open position rate for the construction sector remained at 2.9%, a post-recession high.
The overall trend for open construction jobs has been increasing since the end of the Great Recession. This is consistent with survey data indicating that access to labor remains a top business challenge for builders.
The construction sector hiring rate, as measured on a twelve-month moving average basis, held steady at 5.2% in February. The twelve-month moving average for layoffs is falling again, declining to 2.6%. The quits rate increased to 2.4% in January.
NAHB expects construction sector net hiring to continue in 2018 as the single-family construction market expands. However, as labor remains a top cited challenge to expansion, builders will increasingly explore options to find ways to build more with less.
