#California Gov #Newsom signs #ScottWiener bill to bulldoze over opposition to expansion of #housing density and residential construction projects along key rail transit corridors.
New #Yimby law "Abundant & Affordable Homes Near Transit Act" (#SB79) creates less restrictive state #zoning codes, limits options for those seeking to stall plans, restrict density or halt new housing near transit stations.
Opposition to legislation included exburb #NIMBY #realestate investors who fear #construction of potential seven story condo bldgs near rail transit corridors that would destroy perception of aesthetic quaintness of #suburbs like Burlingame, or Petaluma etc.
Earlier this summer #GovNewsom signed similarly YIMBY-backed #legislation to exempt most urban apartment projects from #CEQA reviews, the state’s signature environmental protection law. “Go YIMBYs,” Newsom said when signing that bill into law.
The state's "housing crisis" conditions in which distinct lack of rental unit availability, and #Prop13 tax measure after effects etc, have all spiked the price of basic housing options, and put vast swaths of not particularly exceptional suburbs amongst the nation's highest priced #realestate markets.
“In California we talk a lot about where we don’t want to build #homes, but rarely do we talk about where we do—until now,” said law sponsoring state senator Wiener in a statement about his fourth in a decade long attempt to get similar laws passed. “SB 79 unwinds decades of overly restrictive policies that have driven housing costs to astronomical levels, forcing millions of people away from #jobs and #transit and into long commutes from the #suburbs or out of the state entirely. It has been a long road to tackling these decades-old problems, but today’s signing marks a new day for #AffordableHousing in California.”

@ZaphodOfTexas Dunno the details, but on the surface, sounds screwy like successful #Prop13 over here in California. Which caused more/worse problems than it solved.
#SystemicProblems #tax -
Very good article about the large #homeless population in California.
Turns out #housingcosts, not #immigration, is driving it.
What the article misses is the #California #tax structure was gutted in the 80’s by #Prop13.
The public was sold on a greedy theft of generational wealth by not aligning taxes with housing prices.

And I sure don’t see many #churches stepping in to help.

The real cause of the UC strike is Prop. 13, the property tax-payer's revolt of 1978. To support public institutions and services in California, Repeal Prop. 13!

Hey #Prop13 nerds: you should watch the new #JerryBrown doc. You can watch him capitulate on it.

Are there #Prop13 nerds on here? I am trying to figure out if there actually was a debate between #HowardJarvis and #JerryBrown in 1979 or if the metadata on this image is messed up.

"If advocates want to reform #Prop13 ... there are ways to peg assessments to market values without triggering huge tax hikes. The report suggests increasing taxes only on 'extremely high-value properties' or on second homes, or phasing in tax increases over time.
"State and local governments also could defer a tax hike until an owner sells their property." #housing #california
