San Diego chapter lead @andrewmalick quoted in this KPBS article on updated zoning to boost infill in unincorporated Jacumba in San Diego County: "[P]rivate investors "shouldn't have to fight 1980s zoning rules to save a town core." Full article here: kpbs.org/news/quality-of-lif…

Here's our joint letter w/@HACdotorg asking CA Sup. Ct. to reconsider state agency decision to classify public-private ground lease as public subsidies, which unjustly burdens infill with additional delays and requirements: councilofinfillbuilders.org/…

Big missed opportunity for the California legislature to boost infill home ownership by reforming construction defect liability. We were proud to co-sponsor #AB1903 and thank author @BuffyWicks for her amazing leadership. More to come next year!
I am incredibly disappointed & frustrated that AB 1903, my bill to reform construction defect liability, just died in the Senate. Critical components were amended out Friday & it was ultimately held by the Senate late last night — missing the midnight deadline for concurrence.

I've written a recap on the @InfillCouncil state housing law panel here, with a special emphasis on a new bill that just passed the CA Legislature this week that will make it easier to build starter homes: SB1116 (2/2) openscopestudio.com/notes-fr… #californiainfillsummit

I went to the California Infill Summit last week in Los Angeles, put on by @InfillCouncil. One of the more interesting parts of the talk with the panel on California infill legislation that covered what is working and what isn't in state housing law... 1/2

We support #SB1423 @HenrySternCA to create a voluntary, non-regulatory consolidation of the state's spatial data, which will streamline early-stage planning for both public agencies and housing providers. councilofinfillbuilders.org/…

We need more affordable infill home ownership opportunities in California, and @BuffyWicks #AB1903 will deliver with new amendments on how we handle condo construction defects. Read our updated support letter here 👇 councilofinfillbuilders.org/…

I'm at this event in LA and Nithya Raman knows about the building plan check process and has plans to address the dysfunction. "I want to put permit expeditors out of business."
