  5. cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco/news/ “In California we talk a lot about where we don't want to build homes, but rarely about where we do — until now. SB 79 unwinds decades of overly restrictive land use policies that have driven housing costs to astronomical levels, forcing millions of people to move far away from jobs and transit, to face massive commutes, or to leave California entirely” #transit #housing #CA #CALeg #SB79 #YIMBY #jobs

  6. #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.”

  11. Oh wow, didn’t realize how many substantial YIMBY bills were passed this year. #SB79 stole the show for sure, but the other stuff will have their positive impacts as well.

  12. yimbys keep calling it misinformation that #SB79 allows demolition of rent-controlled duplexes and telling others to read the bill. it's right here, plain as day!

  13. laist.com/news/housing-homeles “Raman said she believes lack of housing growth currently is the city’s biggest problem. She noted that L.A.’s approval process for new housing regularly takes years, and the city recently has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees in failed efforts to kill 100% affordable housing projects.” #housing #shortage #SB79 #LosAngeles #zoning #transit #homelessness

  14. SF has so many parking lots and other soft sites especially on the westside, we should be building housing there instead of demolishing rent-controlled homes. But #SB79 offers few protections & none for rent-controlled duplexes. Sign this petition to amend the bill to fix this!

    Amend SB 79 to Protect Tenants...

  16. Build homes and fund transit - #SB79 is just-introduced California state legislation to allow more homes near rail and rapid bus lines, and also help transit agencies earn money by leasing land to build homes, similar to how they do in many places. 🚌🏘️
