California has a slam dunk housing bill in the works. The assembly is about to ruin it with inclusionary zoning (IZ) mandates - a policy which has been widely discredited for several years now.

I see that the CA Assembly has bagel-topped SB 79, @Scott_Wiener's upzoning-near-transit bill, by borrowing BMR minimums from AB 1893 (builder's remedy) without incorporating AB 1893's check on infeasible local IZ ordinances. Do we want housing near transit or not?

Didn’t we already deal with housing problems last month?

One of the biggest obstacles to building new CA housing has now vanished

After a decade of battling, lawmakers just exempted infill urban development from the California Environmental Quality Act, or CEQA.

CEQA is just one of many problems.

30%?! These people hate the working class and want to keep housing from being built.

And onerous displacement measures…

Ban all zoning

Gotta still mix poor people in somehow - only the very richest deserve to live in peaceful neighborhoods

Honestly the demo provisions are worse than the IZ

The c in causal stands for Cory

@coryfromphilly

California is a failed state

The IZ mandates aren’t great but workable. The anti displacement language is far worse.

Is there anything that can be done to stop it?

@davantagedupain

Basically invalidating the bill.

wouldn’t expect anything less from California politicians.

How is IZ discredited?

More development fees to save the climate and a ban on gas stoves forces residents to pay the most expensive electric rates in the country
