Small airports with lots of non-EU travellers are worst affected by Europe’s border-control system. Yet big airports are worried, too https://t.co/nH89O1EBYc

Housing density is our climate superpower.

Why? Because "apartments are overwhelmingly more electrically powered than standalone houses, they use less land and building materials, and their residents require less transportation energy to go about their daily lives."

If a colleague ever approaches you to talk about how X, Y, Z thing has changed since childhood and is now 1000% worse, more expensive, and socially toxic, 9 times out of 10 it’s because private equity got involved and turned it into an “industry.”

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

HUGE NEWS!! YIMBY’S REJOICE !!

California is making historic strides today as @CAGovernor Gavin Newsom signs #SB79 — streamlining the building of more housing all across the Golden State.

No, it does not supersede local control as some have falsely claimed. No, it is not one-size fits all. And no, this is not some “land-grab” by the state.

This action sets the state up for success in addressing the affordability and building crisis happening right now!

[Paul E Williams @PEWilliams_]

Update: This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-used urbanism is now LEGAL to build in most California cities

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

And we’re not slowing down.

[Senator Scott Wiener @Scott_Wiener]

SB 79 was 8 years in the making, with earlier versions not passing in 2018, 2019, and 2020. Perseverance pays off.

I’m so proud of our coalition, particularly our sponsors @cayimby @InnerCityLaw, @AbundantHousing, @streetsforall, @SPUR_Urbanist, @gbeltalliance, @BayAreaCouncil

[Senator Scott Wiener @Scott_Wiener]

That feeling when the Governor signs your bill allowing more homes near public transit & you then walk from your 39-unit apartment building to get on the subway.

Housing + transit = perfect combo
