We endorse Senator Catherine Blakespear SB 1077!

It will help CA meet its housing needs while protecting the coast. It requires the Coastal Commission to guide local govts in amending LCPs to simplify ADU/JADU permitting in the coastal zone.

We endorse David Alvarez AB 1886!

This bill is vital to make Builder's Remedy work.

It creates accountability if cities obstruct housing & clarifies they can't claim compliance while blocking homes. California HCD can hold cities to housing laws & prevent moving goalposts.

Affordable housing in wealthy areas is key to reducing inequality.

Del Mar has 0 affordable units despite a mandate for 113. Building mixed-income communities in high-opportunity areas improves life outcomes.

We are proud to endorse Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks bill AB 1657.

This bond will fund the construction of over 15,000 shovel-ready affordable homes, assisting thousands more in the pipeline.

It is critical to addressing our housing crisis.

Research shows that the Coastal Commission's restrictions on housing have raised home prices by at least 20% and reduced population density within the coastal zone, and that prices within the coastal zone have risen faster than prices outside of it. cayimby.org/blog/how-an-oi…

ShoreLINE's 124 affordable homes on MTS land near Grantville trolley will house hundreds of San Diegans at rents ≤30% of income.

We must replicate this model on public land to boost housing supply & reduce car dependence.

One underlying issue that needs to be addressed to get to the root of impact fees is Prop 13.

We need to decide how to properly fund our local governments so that new development isn’t burdened with providing public benefits that should be paid for by a much broader tax base.

SD's housing crisis shows signs of hope: March had the smallest gap between those falling into & escaping homelessness in 2 yrs. Progress, but not enough.

We must redouble efforts on prevention, affordable housing & rapid rehousing to end this crisis.
