If Martin Luther King Jr was alive today, he would be a YIMBY. This is a great article from his son about how there needs to be zoning reform and significantly more building to make communities more inclusive and diverse. ajc.com/opinion/opinio…

Another LA Metro Vermont critique: Environmental contract awarded this month is $55m, will use new state law to be CEQA EIR exempt. Cancelled proposed contract (with full CEQA EIR) in 2021 was $33m. Delaying for more community engagement led to $22m increase in contractor costs.

Why state action/oversight of SF on housing? Board of Supervisors agreed to these housing reforms as part of its state housing plan. It’s now balking at actually adopting them. + SF has the longest permit process & most anemic housing production Enough. sfstandard.com/2023/09/19/san…

Santa Monica, South Pasadena, and San Francisco are all trying to go back on the zoning commitments they made in their housing elements. We shall see if @MeganKirkeby and @California_HCD keeps their commitments to enforce these adopted housing elements.

Legislators didn't do it with One Big Bill so it may have gone unnoticed. But a handful of bills and laws may soon “make it possible for affordable housing providers to develop nearly all viable sites in California by-right and exempt from CEQA.” calmatters.org/housing/2023/0…

At special meeting of the @SouthPasadenaCA council on the General Plan, a resident suggested that they “buy their way out”. He was referring to compliance with state law and a lawsuit settlement. I fear our council may take advice. Bonkers.

This meeting is happening right now. From the looks of it, @SouthPasadenaCA is about to fuck around and find out. I’m gonna need another Cameo from @rogerskaer.
