Retailers and logistics experts say, like everything else in 2020, this year's holiday shopping season will be like no other. You can expect delays, out of stock items and missed deadlines.David Bolotsky is the founder and CEO of the online retailer Uncommon Goods, which connects independent artists, designers and makers with customers. The Brooklyn-based company was at the epicenter of the pandemic and had to shut down for three months. Then, when everyone started shopping again, they did well.Now, they, and many other businesses, are encouraging people to get started on their shopping. No need to wait for Black Friday. In fact, they're warning people to start before Thanksgiving. Like now.“Demand has been strong and a friend of mine calls it ‘Shipaggedon,' concern about what’s going to happen in the transportation network,” says Bolotsky, who also says the supply chain will be limited. “What I think it means for shoppers is if you see something you want, I would buy it now; stick it under the tree.”Kirsten Newbold-Knipp, chief growth office at Convey, a technology company that helps retailers with on time deliveries said, “All the delivery trucks are out and they are busy, you may not have heard of it but there’s sort of a shortage going on right now. They’re having a capacity crunch, not enough drivers, not enough trucks not enough warehouses right now, because of all the things the pandemic has done. We’ve started shopping online more and more and no one anticipated it.”Logistics and shipping are her expertise.“We help them think about what are the trucks doing what are the packages doing what’s happening with on time delivery what kind of damage is happening so they can give consumers the best delivery experience- holidays or not,” Newbold-Knipp said.This year, holiday gifts will undergo a true supply and demand issue, magnified by a pandemic and already backfilled orders. Add in staffing made difficult by things like social distancing and we've got problems.“The other thing that consumers don’t think about is that the actual warehouse space to be able to fulfill orders is limited. They might not have the inventory so fulfillment times are delaying, the pick and pack piece is taking longer and the trucking piece is taking longer,” said Newbold-Knipp.She said consumers need to think ahead, have a backup plan, look for alternatives, use multiple retailers, shop locally, and sign up for text alerts."Only 5% are signing up for SMS alerts, but by regulation the retailer can’t spam you. They’re only allowed to send you a transactional note via text,” Newbold-Knipp said.She also said things that tend to sell out are the items that don't have much variation, such as televisions, toys and specific electronics.“If we see the kind of growth at Christmas that we’ve seen the last few months, we could be looking at 50% growth over last year in terms of online demand,” BolotskyHe recommends having Santa come early, and hide those items until the big day. 3006

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Faced with a crippling housing shortage that is driving prices up while putting more people on the streets, California's governor and legislative leaders agreed Thursday on a plan to reward local governments that make it easier to build more housing faster and punish those that don't.The proposed law, which still needs approval by both houses of the Legislature, would let state officials reward "pro-housing" jurisdictions with more grant money for housing and transportation.It also calls for the state to sue local governments that do not comply, possibly bringing court-imposed fines of up to 0,000 a month.The agreement removes one of the final barriers to Newsom signing the state's 4.8 billion operating budget. Lawmakers passed the budget earlier this month, and Newsom has until midnight Thursday to sign it. He has delayed his signature while negotiating the housing package with state lawmakers.The housing plan does not define what local governments must do to be declared "pro-housing," other than passing ordinances involving actions to be determined later.In a joint statement, Gov. Gavin Newsom, Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon and Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins — all Democrats — said the agreement "creates strong incentives — both sticks and carrots — to help spur housing production across this state."RELATED: Newsom proposes plan to withhold gas tax funds from cities that don't meet housing requirementsCalifornia's population is closing in on 40 million people and requires about 180,000 new homes each year to meet demand. But the state has averaged just 80,000 new homes in each of the past 10 years, according to a report from the California Department of Housing and Community Development.Home ownership rates are the lowest since the 1940s while an estimate 3 million households pay more than 30% of their annual income toward rent.State officials often blame local zoning laws for slowing the pace of construction.In January, Newsom proposed withholding state transportation dollars from local governments that do not take steps to increase housing. Local governments pushed back hard, resulting in Thursday's compromise.The court fines could be difficult to collect. A court would have to rule local officials are out of compliance. And once that happens, jurisdictions would have a year to comply before they would have to pay a fine.If they refuse, the state controller could intercept state funding to make the payment. In some cases, the court could appoint an agent to make a local government comply. That would include the ability to approve, deny or modify housing permits."This bill puts teeth into existing state laws, to ensure cities and counties actually follow those laws," said state Sen. Scott Wiener, a Democrat from San Francisco who is chairman of the Senate Housing Committee. "At the same time, we need to be clear that California's existing housing laws, even with better and more effective enforcement, are inadequate to solve our state's massive housing shortage."Lawmakers have already agreed on most major items in the state budget. They voted to expand taxpayer-funded health insurance to adults younger than 26 who are living in the country illegally.They also agreed to tax people who refuse to purchase private health insurance and use the money to help families of four who earn as much as 0,000 a year to pay their monthly health insurance premiums.Lawmakers have not yet voted on details of a plan to spend 0 million from the state's cap and trade program to help improve drinking water for about a million people. 3635

Roughly 200 people are being asked to quarantine for 14 days after going to a gym in West Virginia.A member of Planet Fitness tested positive for COVID-19 after going to the gym on June 24, and the Monongalia County Health Department is urging anyone who was at the gym that day to watch for symptoms.The health department estimates about 205 people were at the Planet Fitness during the window of time they are concerned about.“Out of an abundance of caution, the club is temporarily closed for deep cleaning and we are not aware of any additional members or team members reporting symptoms at this time,” Planet Fitness said in a statement.West Virginia, as well as dozens of other states, has seen an increase in COVID-19 cases in the last few weeks. In the past 10 days, the state has seen an increase of about 400 cases; in the 10 days prior to that, cases rose by about 240. As of late Saturday afternoon, the West Virginia case count was 2,782, according to a statement from Monongalia County.Those who are quarantined should not leave their home unless to seek medical care, and should limit contact with others in their household as much as possible. 1167

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California's leaders are getting a raise.A state commission voted Friday to increase Governor Gavin Newsom's salary from 2,000 to around 0,000 in December.The Citizens Compensation Commission also agreed to give a 4% raise to legislators and other state elected officials, such as the lieutenant governor and treasurer.Chairman Tom Dalzell cited the health of the state's economy and California's budget surplus for the move."California remains high," he said of pay for state officials. "So is our cost of living."Newsom will not be the highest-paid governor, however. While America's most populous state currently has the highest-earning chief executive, the New York Legislature voted this year to pay Gov. Andrew Cuomo a salary of 5,000 in 2020 and 0,000 in 2021.But the governor will still earn far more than California's median income, which is around ,000, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.This will mark the seventh year in a row California's governor has gotten a raise and Newsom's pay will near a previous peak for the job of around 2,000.Rank-and-file members of the 120-seat Legislature earn around 0,000, still below a past peak of around 6,000. The lieutenant governor is paid around 1,000, the attorney general around 5,000 and the controller and treasurer around 1,000.Created in 1990 following a statewide vote, the commission is appointed by the governor and usually meets once a year to set the salaries as well as benefits for California's elected officers. The Legislature was previously responsible for setting the salaries of state elected officials. 1644

Ron Bielanski is passionate about working with his hands. But COVID-19 threw a wrench at how he made his living as a construction worker.“My boss, at the time I just got hired, told me I can’t make you come here,” Ron Bielanski recalled. “It’s voluntary at this point.”After leaving his job in construction, Bielanski worked as a handyman. But soon, the opportunities dwindled. Prior to the pandemic, he received three to four job offers a week. Now, maybe four calls a month.“That has gone away completely. There is no one calling me for estimates,” Bielanski said. “The only phone calls I am getting are people in emergency situations.”This jack of all trades says clients are reluctant to hire repair experts because of the current pandemic and social distancing guidelines.Experts recommend the following for those seeking handiwork:Household members and service providers should wear masksLimit interaction with repair workersDisinfect the area that may have been touched during a projectHousehold members with health issues should leave while the project is being completed 1087
