So proud of my pal and City Cast colleague @oyvegas.bsky.social for breaking this one. Nashville, heads up!
Nevada state regulators have accused Elon Musk’s Boring Co. of digging without approval, releasing untreated water onto city streets and spilling muck from its trucks, according to a new document obtained by @citycastvegas.bsky.social and @propublica.org.
Elon Musk’s Boring Co. Accused of Nearly 800 Environmental Violations on Las Vegas Project
Nevada could’ve fined the company more than $3 million, but regulators are seeking a reduced penalty of $242,800, citing an “extraordinary number of violations.”

This morning, officers blocking the Commerce Bike Lane told me they hoped I got hit by a car and threatened to "punch my teeth out" if I didn't move along.

Nashville made the obviously correct choice last night. But we need to stop forcing individual CMs to do good things alone and just reform our zoning code citywide like we’ve said we want to in half a dozen planning documents.
Research by Jaehee Song just published in the Journal of Urban Economics finds that restrictive single-family zoning in the US increases housing costs and "disproportionately attracts high-income white homeowners, reinforcing patterns of residential segregation" doi.org/10.1016/j.ju...

🚨WHOA. According to @haleaziz.bsky.social, the Trump admin was actually going to implement the ICE "bounties" it has repeatedly said were false, offering $200 per arrest leading to a rapid deportation — and only walked the plan back after the New York Times got a copy of the memo.

This is an extremely cool project. Letters of support are always helpful especially if you live in the area! I sent mine last week.
at BZA on Thursday:
Trinity Community Commons, in partnership with Safe Haven Family Shelter, want to build 22 permanent supportive homes for families.
Since the property is outside the UZO, they will either need a variance to provide less parking, or will have to tear down the historic sanctuary:

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

Folks in Southern coastal states had better hope their governor can pick up the slack.
DOGE is straight-up sabotaging Florida. Trump and Musk fired a scientist working on hurricane resilience right before a major storm—to “cut waste.” Now Florida’s left even more exposed.
