@VeronicaODavis I have been boycotting commenting on this app, but “come close” got me. Your storytelling is first rate.

I'm hearing some wild misinformation being spread by some opponents of SB 213 today. To clear it up - no, nothing in SB 213 requires cities to shut down commercial development along transit corridors. To quote actual bill language (1/2):

@AndyKnny Props for “re-embiggen.”

Senator Kirkmeyer, in particular, is concerned about input from neighbors. But the hyperlocalized process that prioritizes NIMBY voices has proven a huge impediment for creating more housing. #morehousingnow #reducesprawl #preventdisplacement

[Martha Roskowski @martharoskowski]

So far, the main arguments against SB-213 is that local governments can best address the housing crisis. But we have a housing crisis, so it’s clear the current approach is not working. #morehousingnow #reducesprawl #preventdisplacement

[Martha Roskowski @martharoskowski]

@BoulderBedrooms @ericmbudd On my way. Let's create more housing now! #morehousingnow #reducesprawl #preventdisplacement #affordablehousing

@tpap_ @ITDPAfrica @c40cities @WorldResources @StreetsblogUSA @UITPnews Let’s go Kenya.

[Tim Papandreou @tpap_]

Kenya to propose congestion pricing in targeted urban centers of Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret and Nakuru. If enacted would be a game changer for one of world’s most congested and fastest growing regions.

The wife of the Mayor of Boulder was hit by a driver yesterday. Who is next? #visionzero

[Aaron Brockett @AaronBrockett12]

Yesterday was a tough day -- a car hit @cherryboulder while she was walking our dog. Thank goodness, she's not seriously injured (and the car missed our dog), but we were in the ER for 7 hours and she's all bruised and banged up.
