Had a great evening discussing housing policy, homelessness and my campaign for mayor of Sacramento with @SacYIMBY at New Helvetia Brewery. We need to build housing at all income levels if we want to build a better future for Sacramento! #McCartyforMayor
This evening, we are super excited to be hosting a housing happy hour with @KevinMcCartyCA.
Come join us at New Helvetia Brewing at 6 pm, grab a beer, and hear from Assemblymember McCarty about his plan to build more housing in our city. https://t.co/Olv9SYkh7g
Super excited to have finished my first project in Chico! 59 units, four stories, 100% affordable - about $440k/unit.
Really happy with how this turned out!
Biking down M street at 7:45 am was super encouraging - I saw over a hundred kids and parents biking to school.
If you create safe routes to school, people use them!
I had two drivers almost hit us on our walk tonight. Both rolled down their windows and said โsorry I didnโt see you.โ The issue isnโt INTENTION - itโs ATTENTION. Please look around & slow down.
@ansellundberg Ugh this means I need to actually do it (even though this was what solved my knee pain 3x before, I always find a reason to be skeptical)
Also, a shout out to Penelope Larry, whose public comment from last night embodies that kind of attitude I would urge us all to have about projects like this!
What's important tho is that these are all small but critical adjustments! Tell the planning commission you'd like them to:
1. Eliminate "bulk control" (that kills *everything*)
2. nudge up or get rid of lot coverage
3. nudge back setbacks.
Again, this is Spokane's code.
In 2021, California made headlines by sending 2x vaccines to the state's disadvantaged areas.
Today, they released their estimate of the impacts of doing so:
-160,892 cases averted
-10,248 hospitalizations prevented
-679 lives saved

Kate Johnston became an angler so she could take her son fishing. She loved to ride her bike because she loved to feel more connected to the world. She was one of the first people to die after being hit by a car on a dangerous Sacramento road this year. https://t.co/6fAqvo16M3
