Hi folks - we’ve issued the invites to our upcoming “candidate forums” jointly hosted with @caldems and @WalkBikeBerk! The first session is next week (Thursday 9/10). Spread the word!

We can also help shape the design for Ashby BART and Adeline Street. We have specific planning concepts to advocate for including: the 2-lane option, space for Flea Market, ground floor retail, and of course, maximize housing!

The Adeline Plan Subcommittee is wrapping up its final draft, and many of the new recommendations could threaten the likelihood of new housing and slow streets ever being built in our neighborhood. (thread)
Also: Attend the Adeline Plan Subcommittee
WED. AUGUST 19 6:30-10PM

The City Council will vote on a measure Tuesday night that, if approved, would reduce both the feasibility of housing development in South Berkeley AND the amount of funding for the Housing Trust Fund which funds affordable housing for low income residents. (1/5)
Significantly, this measure is also opposed by our non-profit affordable housing allies because reducing fees going to the Housing Trust Fund means less non-profit low-income housing can be built. (4/5)
Please take a moment to send a message to the city council at [email protected]. Let them know you oppose Item 39 linked below. (5/5)
