My fellow House Sacramento members had a great visit with Senator Angelique Ashby's office last week at YIMBY lobby day. We're excited for SB 79, the big transit-oriented development bill, to get to the Senate floor soon. Let's export Sacramento's housing policy statewide!

We had over 30 people turn out for our event on housing and homelessness in Sacramento County last night. Thanks to Supervisor Rich Desmond, County Planning Director Todd Smith, and Deputy County Executive Dave DeFanti for a great panel discussion. And thanks to 19 Handles for hosting us.

Really awesome @sacyimby.bsky.social discussion tonight with Supervisor Desmond and county leadership on housing policy outside the boundaries of Sac City. Big things cooking!

TOMORROW!
When it comes to building the housing our region needs to address its homelessness crisis, Sacramento County matters. It matters a lot.

Please join us next Tuesday to hear Supervisor Desmond's thoughts on housing in Sacramento County & ask him YOUR questions!

For instance, @sacyimby.bsky.social's biggest win in terms of production has been removing basically all discretionary approvals for multifamily housing — but the yard signs still say "end exclusionary zoning" because no one knows what "ministerial approvals NOW" means

In case you had any doubts about just how deeply pro-housing Sacramento is, it just elected the guy whose top priority is literally:

“Increasing quality housing supply at all income levels while protecting renters”

None of the three story townhomes in this picture would be allowed under Sacramentos bulk control requirements, which are currently the law of the land in all formerly R1 and R2 zones. It’s a problem. We have to fix that before we see meaningful outcome change.
Here's what happened: In 1998 Houston policymakers reduced their minimum lot size requirement from 5,000 square feet down to 1,400 square feet within the I-610 Loop (central Houston.

This policy change has resulted in the transformation of some Inner Loop neighborhoods like Rice Military.

Would love to see Sacramento do this. @sacyimby.bsky.social could be an actionable thing to pursue on the safe streets front.
French law requires “daylighting” all intersections—eliminating street parking within 5 m of crosswalks to improve pedestrian safety—by 2026. Paris will complete all intersections by end of 2025.

SF will begin enforcing a similar law with fines beginning on Jan 1 www.sfmta.com/blog/statewi...
Paris : fin 2025, toutes les places de stationnement devant des passages piétons auront disparu
Pour sécuriser et améliorer la visibilité autour des passages piétons, les collectivités territoriales françaises sont sommées de supprimer
