@swiming_bird @CityGroverBeach TOT goes to the general fund. GB doesn’t have a fund specifically for affordable housing but helped the Cleaver Commons project get 10M in grants. Way more than they could have ever given them in traditional funds.

After some bellyaching from the chair, the bill receives 6 AYE votes and moves on to Assembly Appropriations! bombastic side-eye to the "trickle-down housing" commenters

[SLO County YIMBY @SlocoYimby]

Tuning into the Assembly Natural Resources Committee hearing to see how #SB423 fares 🤞🤞🤞

[SLO County YIMBY @SlocoYimby]

Our rep Addis: supports #SB35, raised two kids in the coastal zone. But wants more time to adjust the amendments, doesn’t want “giveaways to developers.” Deeply disappointing comments from a rep who lives in Morro Bay 😣

[SLO County YIMBY @SlocoYimby]

@Scott_Wiener SLO County relies on the hospitality industry for so much of our economy. Maids, bartenders, tour guides, and receptionists should be able to live in @CityofPismo, @CityOfMorroBay, @CityGroverBeach, Avila and Oceano!

[SLO County YIMBY @SlocoYimby]

Attention SLOcals! 📢 do you think mandating huge parking lots in the coastal zone is dumb af?? Do you think hospitality employees should be able to walk to work? Then tell @addis4cc that you support #SB423 ✊🏽✊✊🏾 and tell @TheCACoast to suck it!

[SLO County YIMBY @SlocoYimby]

#SB423 from @Scott_Wiener extends a law that has enabled 11,000 new homes in just a few years, most of them being low-income! Only it currently doesn’t apply in the coastal zone 😭 which is supremely dumb. SB423 fixes that!

Tuning into @MoveCAFWD webinar on fiscal barriers to housing production and, as usual, the first slides do not bear good news. 🫤

Thanks to all the folks who came out to Housing Happy Hour tonight!

[SLO County YIMBY @SlocoYimby]

Come out to AG tomorrow night and meet new pro-housing friends! Be there or be square. ◼️

A huge shout out and THANK YOU to our Assembly Rep @addis4cc for saying YES to the Social Housing Act! 🥳🥳🥳

Excellent example of the negative impacts of the housing shortage on local communities.

Employees deserve to live close to their jobs. When we say no to housing, we make it harder to keep community resources, local jobs, and new neighbors.

Took a “Jane Jacobs Walk” with the new @CalPoly Urbanists group and @CityBeautifulYT to talk about 👀 on the street, safe sidewalks, and illegal housing. What a great start to the weekend!

[SLO County YIMBY @SlocoYimby]

Props to @rrmdesigngroup who designed the project although literally anything is better than a used car lot and an abandoned liquor store

Freaking sweet pre-app going before @CityGroverBeach plan comm tonight! 🌇

“I don’t like the idea of the building going all the way up to the lot line” says the guy who has been on the Commission longer than any staffer has been employed in this department
