THERE'S NO ADDITIONAL SPACE TO

ACTUALLY- THIS BILLIS
PERMISSIVE IT DOES NOT MANDATE
THAT ANYONE NEEDS TO DO ANY

BELOW THE PROJECT IN THE TO
ADDRESS THE HOUSING CRISIS. THE
COMBINATION OF HOUSING SHORTAGE
IN THE RISING RENT BECAUSE
CREATES INEQUALITY IT LIMITS
OPPORTUNITIES FOR MIDDLE AND LOW
INCOME FAMILIES TO FIND A HOME.
AB NINETEEN TEN WOULD TRUST THE
HOUSING SHORTAGE BY SALVAGING A
PROGRAM TO PROVIDE GRANTS TO
LOCAL AGENCIES THAT WANT TO COME
VERY GOLF COURSE ON. BY THE
LOCAL AGENCY INTO HOUSING A
PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE OPEN SPACE.
THIS BILL TAKE A ONE STEP CLOSER
TO ADDRESSING THE HOUSING
SHORTAGE. BY EXPANDING THE
AVENUES FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO
BUILD MORE AFFORDABLE HOMES. I
WOULD HIGHLIGHTED THIS PROGRAM
IS VOLUNTARY AND IS AT THE
DISCRETION OF EACH LOCAL
GOVERNMENT TO DECIDE HOW OR EVEN
IF TO USE THIS NEW TOOL. THIS
BILL WILL NOT MANDATE ANY LOCAL
ENTITIES IT SIMPLY GIVES THEM
ANOTHER TOOL TO BUILD MORE

COURSE AND MAKES IT MORE
ATTRACTIVE FOR THAT
REDEVELOPMENT TO INCLUDE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND PUBLIC
OPEN SPACE THE GRANT FUNDS
PROVIDED BY THE BILL COULD HELP
DEFRAY THE MANY COSTS ASSOCIATED
WITH REDEVELOPMENT SUCH AS
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSES REZONING
AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT THIS
WILL REDUCE THE COST BARRIER FOR
ME PALLIPES WISHING TO EXPLORE
REDEVELOPMENT OPTIONS THAT
INCORPORATE AFFORDABLE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND OPEN

MINISTER REPRESENTING THE
CALIFORNIA ALLIANCE FOR GOLF ON
BEHALF OF THE STATE WIDE
ORGANIZATION THAT SERVES THE
THREE POINT FIVE MILLION GOLFERS
IN CALIFORNIA THE ALLIANCE IS
STRONGLY OPPOSED AB NINETEEN TEN
AS NOTED IN THE DETAILS LETTERS
TO THE COMMITTEE ON MARCH THE
THIRTIETH WE'RE NOT QUITE SURE
WHY THIS BILLS EVEN BACK IS THAT
VIRTUALLY IS IDENTICAL TO ITS
PREDECESSOR AB SIX SEVENTY TWO
WHICH FAILED TO CLEAR
PREPARATIONS COMMITTEE AT THE
END OF JANUARY. BUT IF I MAY
HAVE A FEW POINTS I'D LIKE TO
HIGHLIGHT ONE AB NINETY TEN
CHERRY PICKS GOLF. MUNICIPAL
GOLF COURSES FOR SUBSIDIZED
HOUSING WHAT ABOUT ALL THE OTHER
USES IT PARTICIPATE ARGUES
PUBLIC GOLF COURSES WHERE THEY
NOT INCLUDED WHY IS GOLF SINGLED
OUT. THIS BILL FAILS TO ADDRESS
THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS WHICH
HAVE BEEN EXPRESSED IN DETAIL ON
OUR LETTER TO YOU ON MARCH
THIRTIETH. AND LET'S NOT FORGET
THAT ACCORDING TO CALIFORNIA
COURTS. MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSES
ARE INDEED CONSIDERED A PARK
USE. THIS BILL RAISES CONCERNS
ABOUT THE PUBLIC SURPLUS LAND
ACT THE PUBLIC PARK PRESERVATION
ACT IN MARCH THE TRUST FOR
PUBLIC LAND EXPRESSED ITS
OPPOSITION WE CONCUR. WITH THEIR
PREMISE QUOTE THIS BILL WOULD
JUST EMPOWER MORE CITIES TO
IGNORE THE SURPLUS LAND ACT AND
MONETIZE THE PROPERTIES AS MUCH
AS POSSIBLE EVEN IF IT'S NOT
WHAT THE COMMUNITY WANTS. THE
TPL CONCLUSION GOES TO THE HEART
THE PROBLEM THIS BILL CREATES
FINANCIAL INCENTIVES THAT LEAD
TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW
SMALL GOLF PROPERTIES WERE
RESIDENCES ALREADY MADE IT CLEAR
THAT THEIR PREFERENCES FOR GREEN
SPACE PARKS AND RECREATIONAL
SPACE. IF APPROVED IT WOULD
DRAMATICALLY. DRAMATICALLY
REDUCE GREEN SPACE OF
COMMITTEES- ALREADY IDENTIFIES
PARK PARK LASTLY THIS BILL
PROMISES HOUSING GET IT SEEMS
MENTAL. ON THE SIDE AND THIS IS
UNDER PER. ABOUT GOLFING IN
DECLINE NOT TRUE GOLF UNDER
UTILIZED NOT TRUE HERE THE FACTS
THE CALIFORNIA IS NOT THE OFFICE
NOT DECLINED QUITE THE NATIONAL
GOLF FOUNDATION TWO THOUSAND
TWENTY ONE. MORE PEOPLE PLAY THE
GAME OF GOLF IN CALIFORNIA THAT
EVER BEFORE. GULPING UNDER
UTILIZED NOT TRUE THE NGF ALSO
REMINDS US THAT TODAY WE ARE
SHORT GOLF COURSES WE WOULD BE
FIVE HUNDRED AND THIRTY THREE
MORE GOLF COURSES JUST TO MEET
THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. THIS IS A
FAIR. AND A CLEAR FAR ANOTHER
MISNOMER PUBLIC GOLF COURSES ARE
NOT TYPICALLY SUBSIDIZED. AT IT
THEY'RE NOT EVIDENCED BY FISCAL
REPORTS PROVIDED BY DISABILITIES
WILL CITED IN A REPORT SUBMITTED
TO. PUBLIC GOLF COURSES IN MANY
CASES ACTUALLY HELP SUBSIDIZE
OTHER PARK PROGRAMS AND CLOSING
ONCE YOU CHOOSE DEVELOPMENT OVER
GREEN SPACE AND PARKS AND TAUGHT
START TOSSING DEVELOPER REBATES
IT OPENS THE DOOR TO PIECE
MEALING. IT IS NOT PRUDENT
PLANNING. THIS COMMITTEE SHOULD
NOT BE **** RUSHED INTO PASSING
THIS BELOW PAR LEGISLATION
PLEASE DON'T JEOPARDIZE
CALIFORNIA'S GOLF COURSE ISN'T
GREEN SPACE THEY'RE NEEDED NOW
MORE THAN EVER ONCE GONE ALWAYS
GONNA. FOR THE REASONS I SHARED
ABOVE AND MORE THE CALIFORNIA
ALLIANCE FOR GOLF AND THE THREE
POINT FIVE MILLION PEOPLE IT

STOP SPELL AND IF YOU DON'T MIND
BEFORE GOING TO FOR THE RELATING

THEY YOU MADAM CHAIR AND OF THE
COMMITTEE I'M ALSO SET A MOTHER
NOVEL THE FOUNDER OF THE LATINO
GOLFERS ASSOCIATION AND A MEMBER
OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE
ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY SEVEN
THOUSAND MEMBER SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA GOLF ASSOCIATION. THE
PROPONENTS OF THIS BILL LAW THE
FACT THAT AB NINETEEN TEN ONLY
AFFECTS MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSES
THEY SAY IT LIKE IT'S SUPPOSED
TO BE A GOOD THING. TERRIBLES
AND I THINK COULD BE FURTHER
FROM THE TRUTH THESE ARE
COMMUNITY PARKLAND GOLF COURSES
WERE WORKING CLASS WOMEN AND MEN
AND YOUTH RECREATION TODAY AND
WORSE IT OPENS THE DOOR TO
ELIMINATING ANY ROADING OTHER
PARK AND RECREATION SPACES WERE
WORKING FOLKS PARTICIPATE IN
HEALTHY OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES.
LOCALLY OWNED COMMUNITY GOLF
COURSE WERE CREATED BY FORWARD
THINKING ELECTED OFFICIALS SO
THAT WORKING CLASS PERSONS COULD
THAT HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY ONLY
AVAILABLE TO THOSE WHO COULD
AFFORD PRIVATE CLUBS. I WISH I
COULD SPEND MORE TIME HERE
EXPRESSING WHY THIS BILL HAS HAD
A CHILLING EFFECT ON GROUPS LIKE
OURS WHO WORK AT THE GRASSROOTS
LEVEL TO OPEN THE DOORS FOR
WOMEN VETERANS IN COMMUNITIES OF
COLOR YOUNG AND OLD TO ENJOY THE
BENEFITS OF GOLF. OUR NUMBERS
ARE GROWING EXPECT SURELY WE
HAVE SHARED WITH YOU WERE
THREATENED BECAUSE OUR WORK
TAKES PLACE AT MUNICIPAL GOLF
COURSES OR DEVELOPMENTAL
PROGRAMS ARE WELCOME. I WAS
RAISED IN PUBLIC HOUSING SO I DO
GET IT I UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR
AFFORDABLE HOUSING I HAVE LIVED
IT BUT THIS BILL IS NOT GOING TO
GET US THERE. IT PROMISES SCANT
HOUSING AT A VERY HIGH COST IT
FLIES IN THE FACE OF THE SURPLUS
LAND ACT AND VIOLATES THE SPIRIT
OF THE PUBLIC PARK PRESERVATION
ACT LAWS THAT THE LEGISLATURE
HAS WISELY CREATED TO PROTECT
AGAINST THE ELIMINATION OF GREEN
SPACE IN CALIFORNIA'S URBAN
AREAS. WHAT AB NINETEEN TEN DOES
DO IS OPEN A PANDORA'S BOX OF
POWERFUL FINANCIAL INCENTIVES TO
SMALL CITIES AND DEVELOPERS JUST
SIMPLY DO WHAT THE TRUST FOR
PUBLIC LAND HAS SUGGESTED
COLLUDED TO VIOLATE THE SURPLUS
LAND ACT IN OPPOSITION OF LOCAL
COMMUNITIES WHICH- LEAVE. THEM
HAVING TO FILE EXPENSIVE
LITIGATION TO PROTECT THEIR
INTERESTS LITIGATION. ENERGY OUT
OF. OUR COMMUNITIES ARE BREAKING
GENDER AND CALL BEAR THROUGH
GOLF PLEASE DON'T SHUT THE DOOR
TO US AND NOTE AT THE EIGHTY
FOUR OPPOSITION LETTERS LISTED
IN THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT
COMMITTEE STAFF REPORT MORE THAN
ONE THIRD OR FROM WOMEN'S
SENIORS JUNIORS AND COMMUNITIES
OF COLOR GOLF CLUBS. AND
ORGANIZATIONS I HUMBLY ASK YOU

PRESIDENT CALIFORNIA LINES FOR

NONE- ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS OF
THE COMMITTEE YES SOMEONE WITH
JUST SOME COMMENTS ABOUT TRYING
NOT TO RAMBLE- WHEN I WAS MAYOR
OF MY CITY FOR SIXTEEN YEARS
UNINDICTED I WANT CREDIT FOR
THAT. WE ONCE HAD A COUNCIL
MEMBER THAT WENT TO AGAINST
LITTLE LEAGUE FIELDS. TO BUILD
MORE LITTLE LEAGUE FIELDS HE WAS
NOT REELECTED. SO I CAUTION
EVERYONE WHO WILL HAVE A VOTE
HERE THIS IS KIND OF LIKE COUPLE
OF KIDS LITTLE LEAGUE FIELDS. N.
CALIFORNIA HAS BEEN FAILING FOR
MANY YEARS BUILDING AFFORDABLE
HOUSING. IN MY HUMBLE OPINION
WHICH AIMS SO HUMBLE. I BELIEVE
THAT MAYBE EIGHT MAYBE SEVEN OUT
OF TEN BILLS THAT WE'RE BRINGING
FORWARD A KENNEL LIKE FEEL GOOD
BILLS YEAH WE'RE DOING SOMETHING
FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING HERE'S A
NEW INNOVATIVE WAY TO DO IT. I
BELIEVE THAT THIS PARTICULAR
BILLFALLS INTO THE FEEL GOOD
FIELD AND IT WILL ACCOMPLISH
VERY LITTLE- IT WILL TAKE AWAY
THE OPEN SPACE I MEAN THESE
FOLKS MADE A LOT. POINTS WAY%
BETTER THAN I CAN BUT IN THE BIG
PICTURE THIS PARTICULAR BILL
ISN'T GOING TO DO DIDDLY. NETS
MY FINAL COMMENT MADAM CHAIR
THANK YOU ASSEMBLY MEMBER BLUE.
MADAM CHAIR AND I APOLOGIZE FOR
BEING LATE ANTHOLOGIZED SET FOR
WALKING IN ON THE MIDDLE OF THIS
IMPORTANT DISCUSSION- BUT AS I
THINK- ASSEMBLY MEMBER GARCIA
HAS ALREADY MENTIONED SHE AND I
HAVE- BEEN DISCUSSING THIS BILL
AND- AND I WANT TO THANK HER FOR
WORKING WITH ME AND LISTENING TO
MY CONCERNS- I EXPRESSED
CONCERNS. ABOUT SINGLING OUT
GOLF COURSES IN FACT I THINKI
VOICE THOSE CONCERNS AT THE LAST
HEARING ON THIS ISSUE-
ESPECIALLY MUNICIPAL GOLF
COURSES THAT SERVE AS IMPORTANT
RECREATIONAL AREAS FOR THE
PUBLIC SOMETHING THAT I CAN
UNDERSTAND- BUT AT. THE I HOPE
ALL OF YOU KNOW- ONE OF MY GREAT
PRIORITIES IN A BITING
PRIORITIES- SINCE I WAS ELECTED
IN TWENTY TWELVE AND I THINK ONE
OF THE REASONS I WAS SENT TO
SACRAMENTO WAS TO WORK ON THE
HOUSING CRISIS AND- TRY TO FIND
WAYS- WHICH- BY NECESSITY. HAVE
TO BE CREATIVE WAYS- OF TO
SOLVING THE- OF THE HOUSING
CRISIS. SO I WANT TO AGAIN THANK
THE AUTHOR FOR- HER MR NARROW
THE BILL. OF BASED ON THREE
CRITERIA THAT WE'VE AGREED ON A
ONE OF FIND OUT- GREED ON
OCTOBER SET OF. WE NOW NEED TO
AGREE ON THE METRIC. FOR THOSE
HERE. I'M AND THAT'S LIKE A BE
EASY- COMMITTEE TO A- DOING THAT
IN FAITH AND I KNOW THE AUTHOR
IS. WELL R. THREE CRY TO WITH
UPON OUR ONE LIMIT TO- THE
AREAS- LIMIT LIMIT-
CONSIDERATION OF A GOLF COURSES
TO AREAS THAT EXCEED A CERTAIN
POPULATION DENSITY. WE HAVE TO
DETERMINE WHAT THAT DENSITY WILL
BE. WE WOULD ALSO LIMIT THIS TO
GOLF COURSES THAT ARE UNDER
UTILIZED OR UNDER USED AND AGAIN
THAT'S A TERM OF ART WE WILL
HAVE TO DETERMINE. WHAT THAT
MEANS- AND FINALLY- WE WOULD
LIMIT IT TO AREAS THAT ARE
CONSIDERED- A PARK POOR- AND
EXACTLY WHAT THAT MEANS AGAIN IS
SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO WORK
OUT. I DO HOPE THAT WE'LL BE
ABLE TO- A WORK THESE CRITERIA
OUT AND THE METRICS ALONG WITH
THEM AND- I- EXPECTED TO. WE
WILL HOPEFULLY BE ABLE TO DO
THAT BEFORE THE SUSPENSE HEARING
AND I APPRECIATE YOUR COMMITMENT
THAT IF WE'RE NOT ABLE TO WORK
OUT- THOSE CRITERIA THAT YOU
WILL PARK THE BILL- IF AND WHEN
WE DO WORK OUT THE CRITERIA THE
AMENDMENTS WOULD BE TAKEN IN THE
NEXT COMMITTEE THE AMENDMENTS IT
AGREED TO AN- THE AUTHOR IS
WRITING. A I WANT TO SAY THAT.
HOUSING IS A- A CRITICAL NEED IN
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND- MY
THINKING ON THIS IS THAT IF WE
HAVE GOLF COURSES THERE MAY BE
NONE. IF WE HAVE GOLF COURSES
THAT ARE BEING UNDER UTILIZED-
HOWEVER WE END UP THE FINDING
THAT- THEN PERHAPS THERE IS A
BETTER AND GREATER PURPOSE THAT
WE CAN PUT THAT LAND- I. IT'S
NOT THAT I WANT GOLF COURSES TO
BE UNDER UTILIZED BUT IF THEY
ARE THEN I THINK WE SHOULD
CONSIDER THEM- AFTER THIS YEAR'S
THE L. A. TIMES RAN AN EDITORIAL
AS YOU THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE
INTERESTED IN THIS ISSUE
PROBABLY NO. URGING US TO THINK
CREATIVELY ABOUT A CREATIVE
BILL- THIS IS- THE AUTHORS AT
ATTEMPT TO FIND A WAY TO.
PROVIDE FOR MORE HOUSING AND TO
THE EXTENT THAT WE CAN HONOR-
THAT DIRECTION I THINK WE SHOULD
AND- AND NOT HAVE A SIGNIFICANT
IMPACT ON THE GOLFING PUBLIC.
THAT'S SOMETHING I THINK WE
SHOULD DO. ANY OTHER COMMENTS
FROM THE COMMITTEE I'M SURE YES
THIS IS MARIE MESSAGES FROM-
VERY BRIEFLY I CONCUR- WAS
SOMEONE NUMBER BLOOM AND I JUST
YOU THIS IS A TOOLS AN
OPPORTUNITY- TO. TO REPURPOSE
YOU KNOW DRAMATICALLY
UNDERUTILIZED GOLF COURSES YOU
KNOW I WANTED MY COMMUNITY THAT
IS SITTING THERE AND HAS BECOME-
NOT ONLY AN EYESORE BUT HAS
BECOME A SOURCE OF WEEDS AND- IT
HAS NOT BEEN REPURPOSED AND SO
THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY. TO
CREATE. A VACANT IT'S JUST IT'S
A VACANT GOLF COURSE. TO RE THAT
CREATE A PUBLIC USE- THAT WOULD
BE A VERY ATTRACTIVE OPTION IT
DISTRICTS SUCH AS MINE THAT%
LACKS THESE RECREATIONAL
OPPORTUNITIES AND- THESE- OPEN
SPACES FOR OUR FAMILIES AND SO I
REALLY APPRECIATE. AT THE ALL
THE WORK THOSE INTO THIS I DID
THIS AGAIN IS JUST A TOOL- AND-
YOU KNOW HOPE THAT- WE CAN COME
TO TERMS- AS- BLOOM- MENTIONS.
AND I HAVE BEEN MOVED WITHOUT.
THANK WE HAVE A OF FROM THE
SUMMER MEMBER RIVAS TO SAY VICE
IN BLOOM- I WILL DELIVER WOULD
YOU LIKE TO. THOMAS YEAH I WILL
BE A BRIEF IN MY CLOSING- NOT
ALL GOLF COURSES SHOULD BE
ELIGIBLE FOR REDEVELOPMENT AT IT
THERE'S A SPACE FOR LIKE ALL OF
OUR OTHER SPORTS OUT THERE AND I
THINK AS WE TALK ABOUT REFINING
IT AND LIMITING WHICH IS YOUR
READ DAILY TRANSFER BETTER. TO
BE BUT IT'S- SURE IN THE TIVITY
AND I THAT THAT WHERE WE'RE TO
GET TO BEFORE WE GET TO THE
SUSPENSE FILE I AND THAT'S MY
COMMITMENT TO WORK ON THE THREE
ITEMS REALLY NARROW THE SCOPE OF
THIS BILL- AND COMMITMENT HONOR
MY WORD BEFORE THAT SUSPENSE
FILE IS THERE ON THE THREE
PIECES THAT WERE OUTLINED I
THINK WE COULD HAVE A SPACE
WHERE GOLF. COULD LIVE AND IT'S
DRIVING IN SOME OF THE OFFICES
OF MY COMMUNITY AND ONE OF
KNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS DRIVING AND
SOME OF THE SPACES IN MY
COMMUNITY AND THERE'S A SPACE
WHERE IT'S NOT HAPPENING IN
THOSE LIMITS THIS IS WHAT I'M
HOME WE COULD BE CREATED TO PULL
UP OF ALL THE- BILL BE. WITHOUT
AND YOU SAID PLAY BASED A SOCCER
THAT MIGHT BE I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR ABLE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH US
MEMBER AND THANK YOU FOR WORKING
WITH THE CAN STAFF AND I REALLY
APPRECIATE US MEMBER. COMMENTS
AND IDEAS AND I KNOW YOU CAR TO.

MEMBER GRAYSON. TAKE NEXT MONTH-
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR AND-
COMMITTEE MEMBERS. BUT AGAIN
YEAH GOOD THANK YOU TO THE
COMMITTEE FOR WORKING WITH MY
OFFICE ON AMENDMENTS AND I AM
ACCEPTING THOSE AMENDMENTS I AM
PLEASED TO PRESENT AB TWENTY ONE
EIGHTY SIX WHICH WILL ESTABLISH
THE HOUSING COST REDUCTION
INCENTIVE PROGRAM TO INCENTIVIZE
LOCAL JURISDICTIONS TO REDUCE OR
DEFER LOCAL IMPACT FEES FOR
QUALIFIED HOUSING PROJECTS
DESPITE MONUMENTAL EFFORTS FROM
THE LEGISLATURE HOUSING
PRODUCTION CONTINUES TO STAGNATE
IN LARGE PART DUE TO THE HIGH
COST OF BUILDING HOUSING
DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEES CAN
REPRESENT UP TO EIGHTEEN
PERCENT. OF THE COST ASSOCIATED
WITH BUILDING NEW HOUSING THE
COST OR THIS COST IS ADDED
DIRECTLY ON TO THE COST OF THE
UNIT AND THE SHOULDERS OF THE
RENTER OR THE HOME OWNER AB
TWENTY ONE EIGHTY SIX PROVIDES
TO VOLUNTARY OPTIONS. LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS FIRST AB TWENTY
ONE EIGHTY SIX WILL PROVIDE
LOCAL JURISDICTIONS WITH 50% OF
THE VALUE OF FEE REDUCTION
GRANTED TO AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PROJECT AB TWENTY ONE EIGHTY SIX
ALSO ALLOWS JURISDICTIONS TO
DEFERRED FEES UNTIL A HOUSING
PROJECT IS CONVERTED TO
PERMANENT FINANCING WHILE CHART
. STE THE STATE. WILL THE-
ACTIVELY PER DEVELOPERS WITH A
ZERO INTEREST LOAN AND ENSURING
JURISDICTIONS ARE MADE WHOLE
THIS INCENTIVE PROGRAM WILL
SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE COST OF
BUILDING HOUSING WHILE
SUPPORTING BOTH LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS AND AFFORDABLE
HOUSING DEVELOPERS. MY WITNESS
TODAY IS MEGAN- TOKUNAGA WITH
THE CALIFORNIA HOUSING
PARTNERSHIP. THANK YOU ASSEMBLY
MEMBER COMMITTEE MEMBERS AND-
MADAM CHAIR MY NAME IS MEGAN
TOKUNAGA I MAY HOUSING FINANCE
SPECIALIST WITH THE CALIFORNIA
HOUSING PARTNERSHIP. IN OUR
THIRTY YEAR HISTORY THE
PARTNERSHIP HAS PROVIDED MORE
THAN ONE HUNDRED NONPROFIT AND
LOCAL GOVERNMENT PARTNERS OF AND
HELPS TO CREATE THEM HELP THEM
CREATE OR PRESERVE OVER SEVENTY
THOUSAND HOMES FOR LOW INCOME
CALIFORNIA. ACCORDING TO THE
ROADMAP THE CALIFORNIA NEEDS TO
PRODUCE ONE POINT TWO MILLION
NEW AFFORDABLE HOMES OVER THE
NEXT TEN YEARS TO MEET THE NEEDS
OF ITS LOWER INCOME FAMILIES AN
IMPORTANT FACTOR INHIBITING
INCREASE PRODUCTION IS THE HIGH
IMPACT FEES THAT LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS CHARGE ALL NEW
DEVELOPMENT TO ADDRESS
INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS. A MARCH
TWENTY EIGHTEEN REPORT FROM THE
UC BERKELEY TURNER CENTER FOUND
THAT DEVELOPMENT FEES FOR MULTI
FAMILY HOUSING IN CALIFORNIA
COULD BE AS HIGH AS SEVENTY FIVE
THOUSAND DOLLARS PER UNIT. THESE
IMPACT FEES ARE CLEARLY
PROBLEMATIC FOR THE BUILDERS OF
AFFORDABLE HOMES AS THEY
SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE NEED
FOR SCARCE PUBLIC FUNDS MONEY
THAT COULD OTHERWISE FUND THE
DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL
AFFORDABLE HOMES. AB TWENTY ONE
EIGHTY SIX ENCOURAGES CITIES AND
COUNTIES TO WAIVE OR REDUCE
IMPACT FEES FOR AFFORDABLE
RENTAL HOUSING BY CREATING THE
HOUSING COSTS REDUCTION
INCENTIVE PROGRAM. TO REIMBURSE
THEM 50% OF THE VALUE OF FEE
WAIVERS OR REDUCTIONS GRANTED.
THE LEVERAGED LOCAL FEE WAIVERS
WILL RESULT IN COST SAVINGS TO
AFFORDABLE HOUSING PRODUCTION.
IN ADDITION THIS PROGRAM WILL
ACTUALLY REDUCE STATE COSTS AT
STATE HOUSING PROGRAMS NOW AND
IT PAYING A 100% OF THE CITY'S
MOST OF THE TIME. WITH THE
SAVINGS THE STATE CAN INCREASE
PRODUCTION OF AFFORDABLE RENTAL
HOMES AND WITH THAT I
RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR AYE VOTE.

MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS SENT TO
THANK YOUR STAFF FOR HELP WITH
THE BILL. I WILL BE ACCEPTING
ALL OF THE COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS
TODAY THIS IS- AB TWENTY TWO
NINETY FIVE AND- I THINK
MENTIONED EARLIER CALIFORNIA'S
AFFORDABLE HOUSING CRISIS IS
EXACERBATING ANOTHER URGENT
CRISIS. OF MANY OF THESE ISSUES
THAT WE SEE INTERSECT WITH ONE
ANOTHER BUT IN THIS CASE WERE.
ARE GOING TO TRY AND HELP WITH
TEACHER SHORTAGES OF AT THE SAME
TIME. RECENT DATA SHOWS THAT ONE
IN TEN SCHOOL DISTRICTS ARE
LOSING A FOURTH OF THEIR
TEACHERS SKYROCKETING HOUSING
PRICES AND STAGNANT SALARIES
HAVE MADE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR
TEACHERS TO LIVE IN THE
COMMUNITIES WHERE THEY TEACH.
pOFTEN HOVER OF THE REQUIREMENTS
FOR LOW INCOME HOUSING MAKING
THEM- MAKING TEACHERS ON QUALIFY
FOR SUBSIDIZED HOUSING BUT
UNABLE TO COMPETE FOR MARKET
RATE APARTMENTS IT'S A DOUBLE
WHAMMY. FORTY SIX OF THE LARGEST
SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN CALIFORNIA
HAVE EXPRESSED INTEREST IN
BUILDING EDUCATIONAL WORKFORCE
HOUSING TO ADDRESS TEACHER
SHORTAGES AND RETAIN STAFF.
UNFORTUNATELY LOCAL RESISTANCE
COMPLICATED BUREAUCRATIC
PROCESSES AND RESTRICTIVE ZONING
HAVE ADDED CHALLENGES TO HOUSING
CONSTRUCTION ON DISTRICT OWNED
PROPERTIES. TODAY ONLY TO SCHOOL
DISTRICTS SANTA CLARA UNIFIED
AND LA UNIFIED HAVE SUCCESSFULLY
BUILT HOUSING PROJECTS ON
PROPERTIES THAT THEY OWN. BOTH
DISTRICTS REPORTED STRONG
INTEREST IN THESE UNITS BY BOTH
TEACHERS AND STAFF BUT ALSO
REPORTED CHALLENGES AND DELAYS
IN GETTING THE PROJECT OFF THE
GROUND. TWENTY NINETY FIVE WILL
REMOVE BARRIERS THAT HAVE
HINDERED HOUSING PRODUCTION FOR
TEACHERS. THE MEASURE WOULD MAKE
HOUSING AN ALLOWABLE USE ON
PROPERTIES SCHOOL DISTRICTS OWN
IF THE PROJECTS MEET CERTAIN
OBJECTIVE STANDARDS AB TWENTY
TWO NINETY FIVE REQUIRE SCHOOL
DISTRICTS TO PRIORITIZE TEACHERS
AND THEIR STAFF FOR THESE UNITS.
AND ENSURES THAT THE SCHOOL
DISTRICTS RETAIN THE PROPERTY.
BY EASING THE ADMINISTRATIVE AND
BUREAUCRATIC HURDLES AB TWENTY
TWO NINETY FIVE WILL HELP SCHOOL
DISTRICTS CONSTRUCTION AFTER
HOUSING TO MEET THE CURRENT
DEMAND ADDRESS TEACHING
SHORTAGES. AND HELP KEEP QUALITY
TEACHERS AND STAFF IN THE
CLASSROOM IT'S A WIN WIN WIN.
TESTIFYING IN SUPPORT TODAY IS
JEFF BENSON WHO IS THE DIRECTOR
OF PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE
INITIATIVES AT THE CENTER FOR
CITIES AND SCHOOLS AT UC
BERKELEY GO BEARS. THANK YOU AND
GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE- AS THE
SEVEN MEMBER SAID I'M-
DIFFERENCE IN WITH THE CENTER
FOR CITIES AND SCHOOLS AT UC
BERKELEY AND WE ARE A POLICY
RESEARCH CENTER AT BERKELEY MADE
UP OF URBAN PLANNING RESEARCHERS
AND EDUCATION POLICY RESEARCHERS
I MYSELF HAVE A PHD IN URBAN
PLANNING AND WE STARTED THE
CENTER ABOUT ALMOST TWENTY YEARS
AGO AS A PLACE FOR THESE KINDS
OF CONVERSATIONS HAPPEN THOSE
INTERSECT WITH PARTICULAR LAND
USE AND BUILT ENVIRONMENT ISSUES
THAT AFFECT. FAMILIES AND
CHILDREN HOW THEY YOU KNOW
CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR
CHILDREN PLEASE OR STRUCTURE
OBSTACLE FOR THEM SO WE DO
RESEARCH ON WHAT OUR MUTUALLY
BENEFICIAL POLICIES AND
PRACTICES FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO
COLLABORATE ON- WE'VE GOT A LOT
OF WORK WITH LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
AND SCHOOL DISTRICTS ACROSS
CALIFORNIA. AND ANOTHER HAPPEN I
HAPPEN TO WEAR IS THAT I SAID ON
THE CITY OF BERKELEY'S PLANNING
COMMISSION SO I'M WELL AWARE OF
LOCAL GOVERNMENT ISSUES
PARTICULARLY RELATED TO LAND USE
AND HOUSING. THIS SIMILAR ASKED
ME TO SPEAK BRIEFLY- IN OUR ON
OUR RECENT RESEARCH WHICH IS.
THIS BIG REPORT WE DID WITH THE
TURNER CENTER FOR HOUSING
INNOVATION AT BERKELEY THAT WAS
MENTIONED. RESEARCHERS AT UCLA
AT CITY LAB- ARCHITECTURE DESIGN
RESEARCHERS AND PROFESSIONALS.
AND THE CALIFORNIA SCHOOL BOARDS
ASSOCIATION- EDUCATION WORKFORCE
HOUSING CALIFORNIA DEVELOPING
THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY CAMPUS-
WHAT WE DID WAS WE EXAMINE THE
NEED ACROSS THE STATE WE LOOKED
AT HOUSING COSTS IN EACH COUNTY
AND WE LOOKED AT SALARIES AND
STAFFING ISSUES AND ALL NINE
HUNDRED AND FORTY SCHOOL
DISTRICTS- WE DID CASE STUDIES
ON THE FOR EXISTING PROJECTS
THAT THAT ARE ON THE GROUND- WE
SCANNED THE STATE FOR SCHOOL
DISTRICT INTEREST ON THIS ISSUE.
WE MAP ALL OF THE LAND THAT
PUBLIC CAPABLE SCHOOL DISTRICTS
OWN IN CALIFORNIA WHICH HAD
NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE AND WE-
LOOKED AT SO DEVELOP ABILITY
ISSUES ON THOSE LAND AND THEN ON
THIS PLANS AND THEN WE LOOK AT
POLICY FINANCE AND OTHER
CHALLENGES FOR BUILDING
WORKFORCE HOUSING AND SCHOOL
PLANTS. I FOUND WHAT THE
ASSEMBLY MEMBER SAID AS YOU ALL
PROBABLY ARE WELL AWARE THERE'S
A REAL BIG CRISIS OF TEACHER
SHORTAGES ACROSS THE STATE- BUT
NOT ONLY THAT YOU KNOW THE OTHER
STAFF. AT PUBLIC SCHOOL
DISTRICTS ARE REALLY HOUSING
BURDEN- YOU KNOW A THIRD OF
PUBLIC SCHOOL EMPLOYEES IN
CALIFORNIA WHO RENT. ARE
CONSIDERED RENT BURDENED THAT IS
THEY'RE PAYING 30% OR MORE OF
THEIR INCOME ON RENT- AND
IMPORTANTLY. THESE HOUSING
AFFORDABILITY AND TEACHER
SHORTAGE CHALLENGES ARE
DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTING
ALREADY DISADVANTAGED STUDENTS.
IN OUR STATE. SO OUR REPORT. HAS
VERY DETAILED ANALYSIS ON THIS
WE ALSO BUILT AN INTERACTIVE
WEBSITE IF YOU WANT TO GO LOOK
AT. HOUSING PRICES HOUSING
AFFORDABILITY TEACHER SALARIES
AND STAFFING ISSUES ON THE
COUNTY LEVEL AND DISTRICT LEVEL
YOU CAN DO THAT ON OUR WEBSITE-
BUT WHAT WE FOUND IS THAT A LOT
OF SCHOOL DISTRICTS REALLY NEED
THIS AND THEY WANT THIS- AS HE
SAID THERE ARE FOUR
DEVELOPMENTS. ON THE GROUND- ONE
MORE OPEN UP THIS YEAR IN DALY
CITY AT JEFFERSON ELEMENTARY
SCHOOL. THERE AT LEAST TWO MORE
SOLID UNDER WAY AND SKATE A
STATE WE IDENTIFIED FORTY SIX
SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN CALIFORNIA.
THAT WE'RE EXPLORING VARIOUS
STAGES OF FEASIBILITY- WE
RECENTLY PUT OUT A CALL FOR
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ON THIS
ISSUE TO ALL OF CALIFORNIA
SCHOOL DISTRICTS WE THOUGHT WE
MIGHT GET. EIGHT OR TEN OR
TWELVE RESPONSES WE GOT FIFTY-
WE MAP THE LAND WELL WHAT'S
INTERESTING WITH CALIFORNIA
SCHOOL DISTRICTS IS THAT THEY
ALREADY OWNED LAND. RIGHT A LOT
OF IT'S BEING USED BUT SOME OF
IT COULD BE THE REPURPOSE FOR
SHIFTED AROUND. OR IT'S ARGUABLY
UNDER UTILIZED. THERE ARE ELEVEN
THOUSAND PROPERTIES ACROSS STATE
ABOUT A HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND
ACRES. SO THERE'S LOTS OF
INTEREST AND LOTS OF OPPORTUNITY
ON THIS LAND IN EVERY COUNTY AND
IT'S NOT JUST A COASTAL ISSUE.
WE FOUND IT IN THE RURAL AREAS
AS WELL WHICH WAS ACTUALLY
SURPRISING TO MYSELF AS A
RESEARCHER I'M MORE SO THAN I
THOUGHT IT WAS BUT THE ISSUE IS
A AS A FAMILY MEMBER SAID IT'S
REALLY COMPLICATED. AND AB TWO
TWO NINE FIVE HELPS TO LEAVE
SOME OF THIS COMPLEXITY- WE CAN
GET INTO SOME OF THOSE DETAILS-
BUT IT PROVIDES ASSURANCES TO
THE DISTRICTS ABOUT WHAT THEY
CAN'T BUILD BUT ALSO. ENSURES
YOU KNOW APPROPRIATE LOCAL
GOVERNMENT REVIEW AND THAT THE
PROJECTS IT HERE TO LOCAL
OBJECTIVE DESIGN AND DENSITY
STANDARDS WHICH REALLY COMES
RIGHT OUT OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS
THAT WE PUT FORTH SO. I SEE A
LOT OF WIN WINS HERE AS YOU
SAID- THE HOUSING GOES FIRST TO
THE EDUCATION WORKFORCE AND
INSECT LEETO PUBLIC EMPLOYEES.
POSSIBLY BENEFIT TO LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS- AND ALSO THAT THESE
HOUSING UNITS THAT MIGHT BE
PRODUCED WOULD COUNT TOWARDS A
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARENA NUMBERS
WHICH EVERYONE'S LOOKING TO
THOSE RENUMBER CERTAIN. BERKELEY
IS- SO I THINK THE BILL STRIKES
A REALLY INTERESTING BALANCE IS
REALLY AN ALLIANCE WITH THE
FINDINGS OF THE RESEARCH THAT WE
DID THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH IS THERE ANYONE ELSE IN THE
ROOM FOR SUPPORT. ON AB TWENTY
TWO NINETY FIVE SO. YOUR NAME
YOUR FILIATION. FURTHERMORE WITH
LOS ANGELES UNIFIED SCHOOL
DISTRICT IN SUPPORT. ADRIN
MOHAMMED WITH LIGHT HOUSE PUBLIC
AFFAIRS ON BEHALF OF BILLS THAT
AND SPARE IN SUPPORT. THANK YOU
FOR ANYONE ELSE THIRTY ONE HERE
IN OPPOSITION TO THE BILL. THANK
YOU MADAM CHAIR MEMBERS
COMMITTEE JEREMY SMITH YOUR
BEHALF OF THE STATE BUILDING
CONSTRUCTION TRADES COUNCIL- WE
DID SIGNAL TO THE ASSEMBLY
MEMBER WHEN THIS BILL CAME OUT
OF HOUSING BASED ON THE- HOUSING
COMMITTEE ANALYSIS. DESCRIPTION
OF THE AMENDMENTS. THAT MAYBE WE
WOULD BE ABLE TO GET A NEUTRAL
UNFORTUNATELY AFTER LOOKING AT
THOSE AMENDMENTS AND PREVENT. WE
ARE NOT ABLE TO REMOVE
OPPOSITION WAS AMENDED- WE-
THINK THAT THE HOUSING MINISTER
VERY GOOD THINGS AS DESCRIBED
HERE- TODAY- BUT WE STILL DON'T
SEE A PLACE FOR OUR LOCAL
BUILDING AND CONSTRUCT. IS
LEADERS TO MAKE ACE. OF FOR
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS. LET ME
STEP BACK ON THAT FOR A SECOND.
THE REASON WE'RE HERE TODAY ON
THIS BILL AND OTHER BILLS AND WE
ARE HOUSING COMMITTEE THIS
MORNING ON THIS WEEK'S BILL. IS
THAT WHEN YOU. STREAMLINED THE
ENTITLEMENT PROCESS AND THE
PERMITTING PROCESS STATEWIDE.
THAT WELL SOMEONE ARGUE OF
SMOOTH THE PROCESS OUT FOR
DEVELOPERS TO BUILD- AND I THINK
WE ALL WANT THERE TO BE MORE
BUILDING BUT ARE ALSO TAKES AWAY
WAY POINTS FOR OUR LOCAL LEADERS
TO WAY AND ON BEHALF OF THE
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS WHO ARE
GONNA BE DOING THE HOUSING
CONTEMPLATED BY THE BILLS SO
WHEN STATEWIDE LEGISLATION SUCH
AS THIS ONE OTHERS WE ASK FOR
THE USE OF A SKILLED AND TRAINED
WORKFORCE SOMETIMES WE ASK TO
MAKE SURE CLEAR. THE PREVAILING
HE PAID. BACK TO THE BILL FOR A
SECOND IT PLAINLY STATES THAT A
HOUSING DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
SHALL BE DEEMED AN ALLOWABLE USE
. WE BELIEVE THIS MEANS THAT
THEY'LL BE NO REZONING- WHICH
DOES TRIGGER SEQUEL. WHICH SOME
PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM MIGHT BE
HAPPY ABOUT BUT AGAIN THAT'S
TAKES AWAY A SPACE FOR OUR LOCAL
LEADERS TO MAKE THEIR CASE FOR
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS. OTHER
PROBABLY BE NO DISCRETIONARY
PERMIT PROCESS- AND THERE'S
NOTHING IN IT WILL BE NOTHING IN
THE ZONING AND A LOCAL ZONING
ORDINANCE THAT REQUIRES A
PARTICULAR PERMIT FOR. SUCH
RESIDENTIAL USE ON THE OWNED BY
A LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCY- AND
WE ALSO JUST BELIEVE THERE'S AN
INCONSISTENCY IN THE CURRENT
LANGUAGE- SIX FIVE NINE ONE FOUR
POINT SEVEN- TALKS ABOUT. SAYS
SOMETHING SHALL BE DEEMED AN
ALLOWABLE USE BUT THEN RIGHT
BELOW THAT. IT SAYS IF YOU
HOUSING DEVELOPMENT MEETS THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THIS SECTION IT
SHALL BE DEEMED CONSISTENT. IS
IT DEEP IN ALLOWABLE USE OR
DEEMED CONSISTENT THERE'S SOME
INCONSISTENCY IN THAT LANGUAGE
THAT WE SAW COMING OUT OF
HOUSING COMMITTEE. SO AGAIN I
JUST WANTED TO STEP BACK AND
JUST REITERATE. WITH THIS IS A
GOOD IDEA WE HAVE OUR OWN
STUDENT HOUSING BILL IN THE
SENATE. TO PROVIDE STUDENT
HOUSING AT UC AND CSU CAMPUSES
WE UNDERSTAND THIS IS AN ISSUE.
WHEN YOU DO THIS TYPE OF
STREAMLINING- IT TAKES AWAY THE
OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO MAKE OUR
CASE TO THE LOCAL LEVEL AND
THAT'S WHAT WE ASK FOR THE
LANGUAGE WE ASK FOR THIS BILL-
IN OTHER BILLS. SO FOR THOSE
REASONS WERE DOING OPPOSE UNLESS
AMENDED POSITION THANK YOU FOR
THE TIME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH IS
THERE ANYONE ELSE IN OPPOSITION
TO THE BILL. SEEING NONE- ARE
THERE ANY QUESTIONS OF THE

BLEW UP THIS AGAIN. THANK YOU
CURRENTLY LAW REQUIRES
JURISDICTIONS TO IDENTIFY AT
LEAST ONE ZONE WITHIN THEIR
HOUSING ELEMENT WHERE EMERGENCY
SHELTERS ARE PERMITTED BY RIGHT.
THE LAW HOWEVER DOES NOT REQUIRE
THE JURISDICTION TO DEMONSTRATE
SITES WITHIN THAT ZONE ARE
SUITABLE AND AVAILABLE FOR
SHELTER DEVELOPMENT OR HAVE THE
CAPACITY TO MEET THE NEED. THE
RESULT IS THAT MANY
JURISDICTIONS ARE NOT ADEQUATELY
PLANNING FOR SHELTERS OR OTHER
INTERIM HOUSING AND CREATING
BARRIERS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF
EMERGENCY SHELTERS FOR THOSE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. IN
ADDITION CURRENT LAW REQUIRES
THAT IF A JURISDICTION FAILED TO
REZONE ENOUGH LAND TO MEET ITS
RAINY AT ALL INCOME LEVELS
DURING THE PRIOR HOUSING ELEMENT
PERIOD. IT MUST MAKE UP THE
ZONING SHORTFALL IF I IN ITS
SUBSEQUENT HOUSING ELEMENT. THE
SITES RESULT TO MAKE UP THE
SHORTFALL FROM THE PRIOR HOUSING
ELEMENT ARE KNOWN AS CARRYOVER
SITES. THERE IS SOME AMBIGUITY
IN THE LAW AS TO WHETHER THE
STATE'S NO NET LOSS OWNING LAW
APPLIES TO BOTH CARRY OVER
SITES. AND SITES TO MEET THE
CURRENT RENO OBLIGATION AS A
RESULT SOME LOCALITIES MAY NOT
COMPLY WITH THE OBLIGATIONS TO
REPLACE CARRYOVER SITES THAT ARE
DEVELOPED WITHOUT HOUSING FOR
LOWER INCOME. HOUSEHOLDS FURTHER
CONSTRAINING. BADLY AT SITES FOR
AFFORDABLE HOUSING. EIGHT TWENTY
THREE THIRTY NINE WOULD
STRENGTHEN HOUSING ELEMENT LAW
TO ENSURE THAT ZONES IDENTIFIED
AS LOCATIONS WHERE SHELTERS AND
OTHER INTERIM HEALTHY SOLUTIONS
CAN BE BUILT BY RIGHT OR
SUITABLE. AVAILABLE AND
SUFFICIENT TO ADDRESS THE NEED
FOR THOSE EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS FINALLY THE BILL
WOULD CLARIFY THE NOTE THAT NO
NET LOSS LAW APPLIES TO BOTH
CARRY OVER SITES AND SITES
IDENTIFIED TO MEET THE CURRENT
REINA. THE BILL HAS NO
OPPOSITION AND WITH A TESTIFYING
IN SUPPORT TODAY IS ON THE
LAWLER REPRESENTING THE
CALIFORNIA RURAL LEGAL
ASSISTANCE FOUNDATION AND THE
PUBLIC INTEREST LAW PROJECT.
WELCOME GOOD AFTERNOON I'M TURN
MEMBERS OF ANOTHER AGAIN ON
BEHALF OF THE COMPANY WERE LEGAL
ASSISTANCE FOUNDATION IN THE
PUBLIC INTEREST LAW PROJECT I
THINK MISTER BLOOM LATER LAID
THE ISSUE OUT WELL LAW THE LAW
HAS LONG REQUIRED THAT
JURISDICTION'S CREATE BY RIGHT
OPPORTUNITIES FOR SHELTER
DEVELOPMENT- BUT WHAT WE HAVE
FOUND OVER THE YEARS IS THAT AP
A SMALL SEGMENT OF
JURISDICTIONS. HAVE PUT THOSE-
IT SITES SERVERS OWNED. ZONES
THAT HAVE EITHER NO AVAILABLE
SITES FOR DEVELOPMENT AT ALL- OR
THAT ARE IN HEAVY INDUSTRIAL
AREAS OR OTHERPLACES THAT WOULD
BE REALLY INAPPROPRIATE FOR AT
THE LOCATION OF A SHELTER OR IN
FAR FLUNG AREAS THAT ARE NOT
SERVED BY TRANSIT ARE. CONNECTED
TO SERVICES BUT WHICH IS REALLY
NOT MEANINGFUL COMPLIANCE WITH
THE LAW SO WHAT WE'RE REALLY
TRYING TO DO HERE IS JUST PUT US
MORE PARAMETERS AROUND THIS TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE ACTUALLY GET
REAL SITES THATTHAN A SHELTER
COULD LOCATE ON BY RIGHT BE
BUILT QUICKLY. TO HELP SERVE THE
INTRAMUSCULAR SPRINTING
HOMELESSNESS APPRECIATE ALL THE
CONVERSATION IN THE WORK WE WERE
ABLE TO DO ON THIS BILL WITH THE

PRETTY FAR DOWN IN THE WEIGHTS-
BUT LAST WEEK WE LEARNED IN LOS
ANGELES COUNTY THAT ALMOST TWO
THOUSAND PEOPLE HAVE DIED ON THE
STREETS OF LA WHO ARE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS- THAT
IS UP I THINK BY 56% FROM THE
YEAR BEFORE THIS IS A PUBLIC
HEALTH AND HUMANITARIAN
EMERGENCY AND EVERYTHING WE CAN
DO TO- HELP RESOLVE HOMELESSNESS
WE MUST DO AND THIS IS ONE OF
THE STEPS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH I
APPRECIATE YOUR YOUR DESIRE TO

IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT BOARD KEEP
IT ASSESSMENTS. AB TWENTY EIGHT
NINE SIMPLY CLEARS UP AMBIGUITY
IN EXISTING LAW WITH RESPECT TO
THE BENEFIT IDENTIFICATION
REQUIREMENTS IN NINETEEN NINETY
SIX VOTERS PASSED PROPOSITION
TWO EIGHTEEN WHICH IMPLEMENTED A
NUMBER OF NEW REQUIREMENTS ON
PEOPLE'S INCLUDING
IDENTIFICATION OF SPECIAL AND
GENERAL BENEFIT. THE INITIATIVE
INCLUDED ONLY BRIEF DEFINITIONS
OF SPECIAL AND GENERAL AND HAD
NO IMPLEMENTATION GUIDANCE FOR
HOW ENGINEERS ARE TO IDENTIFY
AND SEPARATE THE TWO BENEFITS.
THIS AMBIGUITY HAS MADE IT
DIFFICULT FOR PEOPLE TO
DETERMINE WHAT ASSESSMENTS CAN
BE CHARGED AND IT INCREASED THE
NUMBER OF LAWSUITS AGAINST THE
DISTRICTS. A NARROW ADDITION TO
THE STREETS AND HIGHWAYS CODE IS
NEEDED TO GIVE DIRECTION TO
ENGINEERS AS TO HOW TO CALCULATE
THE ASSESSMENT BENEFITS AB
TWENTY EIGHT NINETY CLARIFIES
THE PROPERTY AND BUSINESS

MADAM CHAIR COLLEAGUES FOR I
WOULD LIKE WITH COMMITTEES FOR
THEIR WORK ON BILL I WILL BE
ACCEPTING THE COMMITTEE
SUGGESTED AMENDMENTS DESCRIBING
THE ANALYSIS AB TWENTY ONE
EIGHTY ONE WOULD REFORM THE
GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE OF THE
SANTA CLARA VALLEY
TRANSPORTATION. VTA GOVERNMENTS
HAVE BEEN THE SUBJECT OF THREE
CIVIL GRAND JURY REPORTS OVER
THE LAST EIGHTEEN YEARS THE TWO
THOUSAND NINETEEN GRAND JURY
REACHED A SIMILAR CONCLUSION TO
THE ONE REACHED IN TWO THOUSAND
FOUR WHICH WAS THAT BT IS
GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE IS A ROOT
CAUSE OF THE AGENCY'S POOR
PERFORMANCE. THE GRAND JURY PTA
TO PROPOSE LEGISLATION TO
RESTRUCTURE THE BOARD ISN'T
INSTEAD STATUE. WHAT AB TWENTY
ONE EIGHT. IS BY ON TWO YEARS OF
STAY. IN BALL DO. I WORK CLOSELY
WITH CURRENT AND FORMER VTA
BOARD MEMBERS AND CONDUCTED
EXTENSIVE COMMUNITY OUTREACH.
INCLUDING HOSTING A PUBLIC VTA
GOVERNANCE REFORM TOWN HALL
EARLIER THIS YEAR. WE ANALYZED
DOZENS OF SIMILAR TRANSIT AGENCY
BOARDS THE TWENTY TWENTY ONE VTA
BOARD SELF ASSESSMENT. THE GRAND
JURY FINDINGS THAT WE PRIORITIZE
ADDRESSING THE CONCERNS RAISED
BY THE OPPOSITION TO THIS EFFORT
LAST YEAR. OPERATING ALL THIS
FEEDBACK AB TWENTY ONE EIGHTY
ONE FOCUSES ON FOUR KEY AREAS
FOR. STABILITY TRANSPARENCY
REGIONALISM AND EXPERTISE AB
TWENTY ONE EIGHTY ONE REPLACES
THE CURRENT BOARD WHICH IS A
ROTATING GROUP OF TWELVE ELECTED
OFFICIALS AND SIX ALTERNATES IN
SANTA CLARA COUNTY WITH A TWELVE
MEMBER HYBRID BOARD COMPOSED OF
BOTH LOCAL ELECTED OFFICIALS AND
QUALIFIED MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC
. THIS BILL EMPOWERS LOCAL TO
SELECT BOARD. WHAT PRIORITIZE
BOTH REGIONAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND
EQUITY IN USING A REGIONAL
RANKED CHOICE VOTING PROCESS FOR
THE SMALL CITIES. THE NEW VTA
BOARD MEMBERS WILL BE SELECTED
BY CITY AND COUNTY OFFICIALS IN
A TRANSPARENT PUBLIC PROCESS
ENSURING THAT EXPERTISE RELATED
TO TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE
PROJECT MANAGEMENT. FINANCE IN
TRANSIT RIDERSHIP ARE
REPRESENTED ON THE BOARD. IN
ADDITION AB TWENTY ONE EIGHTY
ONE LAN THINS TERMS FROM TWO TO
FOUR YEARS TO PROVIDE FOR
GREATER STABILITY. THERE ARE
MANY EXAMPLES OF SUCCESSFUL
HYBRID TRANSIT AGENCY GOVERNING
BOARDS WITH BOTH ELECTED
OFFICIALS AND APPOINTED
COMMUNITY MEMBERS INCLUDING IN
PITTSBURGH BOSTON AND TORONTO. I
WANT TO WRITE. LAST FEW YEARS
VTA HAS MADE MEANINGFUL. SUCH AS
THE NEW CATTLE PENS PORTER. BUT
THE NEED FOR STROLLER FOR ME
IT'S INDUSTRY WHAT JUST IN. AB
TWENTY ONE EIGHTY ONE IS THE
LACK OF CON. BLACK OF. AND LACK
OF EXPERIENCE AFFECTED THE VTA
BOARD FOR MANY YEARS WILL BE
BUILDING A SYSTEM OF REGIONAL
ACCOUNTABILITY. I DEFINITELY
WANNA AND SIZE THAT I'M OPEN TO
SUGGESTED IMPROVEMENTS TO THIS
PROPOSAL. AND I'M COMMITTED TO
CONTINUING TO WORK WITH
STAKEHOLDERS TO ENSURE HIGH
QUALITY REPRESENTATION FOR ALL
SANTA CLARA COUNTY RESIDENTS. I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A VOTE
MAYBE ONE EIGHTY ONE AND- AND WE

HONOR OF SERVING AS CHAIR AND
VICE CHAIR OF THE BOARD. AT THE

THE CHALLENGES THE BIGGEST ONE
WAS A GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE OF
THE BOARD I ASKED THE BOARD TO
WORK WITH ME TO DESIGN A
STRONGER BOARD ONE THAT CAN
FOCUS ON THE TREMENDOUS
TRANSPORTATION ISSUES IN SENECA
COUNTY AND ARE READ. I CONVENE
AN AD HOC BOARD COMMITTEE M. AND
THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEMS. AND
FIND A BETTER WAY FORWARD WE
DEVELOPED A ROBUST LIST OF BOARD
ISSUES AND ENGAGED OUR OUTSIDE
AUDITOR CHEN TO HELP ANALYZE
THEM. WE EXAMINE BOARD
STRUCTURES A TRANSPORTATION
AGENCIES AROUND THE UNITED
STATES. IN MY ATTEMPT AT
TRANSPORTATION CONFERENCE I
FOUND VERY FEW SUCCESSFUL
AGENCIES HAD PTA SUPPORT
STRUCTURE. THE RESULTING REPORT
DIDN'T MAKE A RECOMMENDATION ON
CHANGING THE BOARD STRUCTURE AS
THE AUDITOR GENERAL FELT THE VTA
HAD SO MANY ISSUES THEY WEREN'T
PUTTING A NEW BOARD STRUCTURE IN
PLACE WHAT. YEAH COMMITTEE. ON
CENSUS OF OR HONORING. TO THE
BOARD OR ON AN ALTERNATIVE
STRUCTURE. BELIEVE THE AD HOC
COMMITTEE MEMBERS WERE CONCERNED
ABOUT A POLITICAL PATH FORWARD.
I STILL WANT CAN VTA AND MORE
IMPORTANTLY THE PEOPLE OF SANTA
CLARA COUNTY WOULD BENEFIT FROM
A BOARD STRUCTURE SUCH AS
DESCRIBED IN AB TWENTY EIGHTY.

GOOD AFTERNOON- MADAM CHAIR AND
MEMBERS- I AM PRESENTING EIGHT
THREE POP STREAMS L. NOW WE GET
ALL THE OF A LOT OF OTHER NAMES
TO CALL THIS BILL BUT I'M NOT.
ALL THOSE ALL THOSE. BUT THE IS
USING THE RESTROOM FOR MOST OF
US WE USE IT AT OUR LEISURE AND
ANY PLACE THAT WE ARE FOUR TO
TEN TIMES A DAY DEPENDING ON THE
INDIVIDUAL. MOST OF US DON'T
HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT. WHERE WE'RE
GOING TO FIND A RESTROOM TO USE
. BUT THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE IT
NOT ONLY INCLUDING PARENTS OF
YOUNG CHILDREN SENIORS AND OF
COURSE MANY MANY HOMELESS THAT
DON'T HAVE THAT LUXURY WHEN THEY
HAVE. WHETHER IT'S A CHILD OR
THEMSELVES NEED TO FIND A
RESTROOM. BECAUSE OF THE
PANDEMIC WE UNDERSTAND AND KNOW
THAT MANY RESTROOMS WERE CLOSED
WHETHER IT WAS- RESTAURANTS
RETAIL BUSINESSES WE'VE ALL BEEN
TO A PLACE OF BUSINESS IT SAYS
ONLY INCOME EARNERS. AND YET
THIS IS A BASIC BOTTLE FUNCTION
. NOW TO MAKE IT EVEN A LITTLE
BIT MORE EXTREME THINK OF OR
IMAGINE A HUNDRED AND SIXTY
THOUSAND HOMELESS PEOPLE LIVING
IN ENCAMPMENTS FIVE THIS IS A
GOOD QUESTION IS WHERE DO THEY
GO. SO THIS IS NOW BECAUSE I
COME A SANITARY AND HEALTH
CONDITION AN ISSUE THAT WE
SHOULD TAKE SERIOUSLY SO WHAT MY
BILL WOULD DO IS SAY THAT WE
WOULD LIKE AND WE- ARE HOPING
THAT THIS YEAR WE CAN GET
APPROVED- A PUBLIC WEBSITE THAT
WOULD AT. LET DIVISION NO WHERE
A PUBLIC BATHROOM IS AVAILABLE
IT BY THE ZIP CODE- THIS BILL
WILL BENEFIT ALL PEOPLE
INCLUDING VULNERABLE COMMUNITY
SENIOR WOMEN GET WORK. OUR USER
THROUGH. AND OF COURSE ALMOST-
AND IN ADDITION TO THAT PEOPLE
WITH DISABILITIES- A FAILURE TO
PUBLICIZE AN OPEN THESE PUBLIC
RESTROOMS HARMS OUR LOCAL
ECONOMY AND ECONOMIES WITHOUT
THIS INFORMATION SHOPPERS
TOURISTS AND OTHERS ARE MORE
LIKELY TO RETURN HOME OR TO
THEIR HOTELS AND BEST AND LESS
TIME IN OUR COMMERCIAL. QUARTERS

TWENTY AYE PUSHIN. ENTITLED BY.
AS RIGHT TO ISSUE. CONCLUDING
THAT THE BILL TO USE THE
BATHROOM AND PRIVATE. IS CENTRAL
TO OUR CONCEPTION OF HUMAN
DIGNITY AND THAT'S PRECISELY WHY
BATHROOM ACCESS HAS BEEN PART
EVERY CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AND
A LOT. IN THE MEDICAL
DISTINCTION. AND ACCESSIBLE OF
PUBLIC BACK BIG AVAILABLE
BATHROOMS IT ONES THAT ARE
PHYSICALLY PRESENT ARE OF
LIMITED UTILITY IF THEY ARE NOT
ACCESSIBLE ONE BARRIER TO PUBLIC
BATHROOM ACCESS IS THAT THEIR
LOCATIONS ARE POORLY PUP I JUST
GOT. PUBLISHED CENTRAL. CAN MAPS
PARKS. PUBLIC TRANSIT LINES
POLLING PLACES IN LIBRARIES BUT
BATHROOMS ARE NOTICEABLY ABSENT.
THIS IS PARTIALLY BECAUSE CITY
THEMSELVES ALMOST INVARIABLY DO
NOT MAINTAIN THE STATE OF. EIGHT
TEAMS EIGHTY THREE WOULD RATHER
BY THAT. PROMOTE BATH. FOR COME
THAT BY THE STORE AND- ARE
DENIED BATHROOM ACCESS SUCH AS

THAT AB. TWO TWO TWO ONE. GOOD
AFTERNOON MADAM CHAIR MEMBERS
I'M HERE TO PRESENT AB. TWO TWO
TWO ONE. A. D. U. ACCESSORY
DWELLING UNIT BILL. AB TWO TWO
TWO ONE WILL CLARIFY EXISTING
LAW TO HELP EXPEDITE THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A D. YOU. ONE OF
THE SPOTS IN. HOUSING IN
CALIFORNIA AND THERE HAVE BEEN
VERY FEW BRIGHT SPOTS HAS BEEN
THE BUILDING OF A D. USE BECAUSE
SOME OF THE WORK DONE AT THE
STATE LEVEL WE HAVE NOW SEE MORE
PROTESTS ACROSS THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. A TWO BUILDING
EIGHTY USE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD
ALONE WE HAVE SEEN A GOOD
HANDFUL OF PEOPLE- BILL DATE D.
WITH THAT WE'VE ALSO SEEN. PUSH
WITH MY SOME LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
TO MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT EVEN
THOUGH WE HAVE TRIED TO WORK
THROUGH THAT- WE KNOW THAT
BEFORE THE PANDEMIC WE HAD
ISSUES WITH HOUSING AND NOW WE
HAVE EVEN MORE. THIS BILL WILL
CLARIFY THAT LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
MUST RETURN A FULL SET OF
COMMENTS TO A PROJECT TO MOAN IT
WITHIN SIXTY DAYS OF A
SUBMISSION OF AN EIGHT YEAR. NOW
EVERY MONTH IN FORMULA E'S
PROJECTS ARE EITHER DELAYED OR
PLANNING DEPARTMENTS TAKE
SOMETIMES THREE MONTHS NINETY
DAYS MORE THE PRICES GO UP TO
CONSTRUCT AN EIGHTY YOU- IT ALSO
SPECIFIES THAT LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
CANNOT EXCEED THE LIMITS ON
PLANNING STANDARDS FOR. OF
EIGHTY. OUR THE DEADLY NAY DID
IN STATE LAW I WILL JUST SAY ONE
OF THE CITIES THAT I WORK
CLOSELY WITH THE STATE SAYS THAT
YOU CAN BUILD AN A. D. U. N. IT
PATCHED GARAGE. WE'VE SEEN THAT
HAPPEN BUT IN A DETACHED GARAGE-
THE IN THIS PARTICULAR CITY THEY
HAVE SAID YOU CANNOT BUILD A NAY
D. U. AND A DETACHED GARAGE AND
THAT TO THE HOMEOWNER WOULD HAVE
TO BUILD ANOTHER GARAGE AND THEN
THEY COULD BUILD THE EIGHTY YOU
. SO THIS DOES NOT MAKE ANY
SENSE IN ACTUALLY THEN-
ENCOURAGES PEOPLE NOT TO BUILD
THE AD YOU SO THESE ARE SOME OF
THE- OOPS WE'RE SEEING LOCAL
GOVERNMENT PUT IN. AND BUT WE'VE
ALSO SEEN THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT
WHERE THERE ARE SOME CITIES THAT
HAVE THE RIGHT RECIPE MEANING
PLANS THAT THEY CAN CHOOSE THAT
ARE ALREADY PRE APPROVED- FEES
THAT ARE SOMETIMES- HOW ON- IT
MEANING THAT THEY HOLD THEM SO
THAT YOU'RE NOT SEEN. AS FEES
PUT ON EIGHTY USE SO I THINK
THIS IS CLEAN UP BILL TO SOME OF
THE WORK WE'RE DOING AND- WE THE
TWO. SUPPORT OF THE NO WE HAVE-
LOUIS MOREAU TABLE KELLER. YOU
THANK YOU WELCOME. GOOD
AFTERNOON MADAM CHAIR MEMBERS MY
NAME'S LOUIS MONTANA LEGISLATIVE
DIRECTOR FOR CALIFORNIA BE ONE
OF THE SPONSORS AB TWENTY TWO
TWENTY ONE. IF YOU DON'T KNOW
CALIFORNIA IS AN ORGANIZATION
THAT WORKS TO END CALIFORNIA'S
IMMENSE THREE POINT FIVE MILLION
HOME SHORTAGE- WERE A PROUD TO
PARTNER WITH ORGANIZATIONS UP
AND DOWN AT THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA THAT ARE DOING THAT
WORK OUT IN THE FIELD TODAY THIS
BILL IS THE PRODUCT ONE OF THOSE
PARTNERSHIPS. SINCE THE PASSAGE
EIGHTY WHAT HAS SPURRED THE
CREATION OF TENS OF THOUSANDS OF
HOMES ACROSS CALIFORNIA. MULTI
BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY THESE
SPECIALISTS AND HOMEBUILDERS
THESE HOMES HELP STABILIZE
HOMEOWNERSHIP CREATE
HOMEOWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES AND
ACCORDING TO THE UC BERKELEY-
TURNER CENTER A RESEARCH
INSTITUTE PRODUCE HOMES THAT
RENT FOR UP WHAT WOULD BE
TYPICALLY AFFORDABLE TO LOW
INCOME PEOPLE IN- THE MSAS IN
WHICH THEY'RE LOCATED THAT'S A
WIN WIN SITUATION FOR EVERYONE
ACROSS CALIFORNIA. I THINK THE
ANALYSIS DOES A GREAT JOB
LISTING THAT CHANGES THAT THIS
BILL MAKES WANTED TO THINK THAT
COMMITTEE STAFFER WORKING WITH
US TO MAKE SURE THESE ARE ALL
RIGHT. THE BILL CLARIFIES THAT
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS MUST RETURN A
COMPLETE SET OF COMMENTS ON THE
EIGHTY PROPOSAL WITHIN THE
TIMELINES DELINEATED UNDER STATE
LAW. THAT ALL RELEVANT PERMITS
AGENCIES MUST RETURN THOSE
COMMENTS. AND MORE CLEARLY
ENUMERATE THE ITEMS THAT A LOCAL
AGENCY CAN AND CANNOT REQUIRE OF
A PROJECT APPROVED UNDER SUB
DIVISION II OF EIGHTY LAKH WHICH
ESTABLISHES. THAT THAT THAT THE
SUBDIVISION THAT ESTABLISHES THE
RIGHT OF A HOMEOWNER TO BUILD.
HUNDREDS BUT DID YOU. THANK YOU
FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION OF THIS
IMPORTANT MEASURE TO ACCELERATE
THE SUCCESS OF EIGHTY LAKH I
URGE YOUR SUPPORT FOR AB TWENTY
TWO TWENTY ONE. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH PLEASE BEGIN I THINK YOU
TURN MEMBERS AND ASSEMBLY MEMBER
QUIRK-SILVA FOR HAVING ME TODAY
TO PROVIDE EXPERT TESTIMONY ON
THIS BILL- MY NAME IS ANY FRYMAN
AND I'M IN. A COMPANY CALLED
ABODE YOU. BILL SAYS RICK UNITS
CALIFORNIA INDEED IN SERVING
HOMEOWNERS IN MANY OF YOUR
DISTRICTS- WE- HANDLE ALL THE
PERMITTING FOR HOMEOWNERS. AND
ADDITIONALLY DO A LOT OF CITY
EDUCATION AS WELL WHICH ACTUALLY
GIVES MY TEAM A REALLY UNIQUE
PERSPECTIVE ON THESE RECURRING
TECHNICAL AMBIGUITIES. THAT
EXIST IN CURRENT EIGHTY YOU LAW
AND ACTUALLY WASTE A LOT OF
EXCESSIVE PUBLIC SECTOR AND
PRIVATE SECTOR RESOURCES. TO
INTERPRET- THE CHANGES IN THIS
BILL AB TWENTY TWO TWENTY ONE.
ARE IMPORTANT CLEAN UP AND
TIGHTENING TEARS YOU ARE ALREADY
DID A LOT. THEY DO NOT
SUBSTANTIVELY X. EIGHTY LAW. ROB
YOU CAN CLEAR FOR CITIES
IMPLEMENTED NORMAL HOMEOWNERS TO
UNDERSTAND IF THERE PER THING
EIGHT ZERO. THIS SPEEDS UP
PERMITTED. IT REDUCES THE AMOUNT
CITY RESOURCES THAT NEED TO
SPENT ON CITY. I DINNER IS TO
ACTUALLY RIGHT NOW. OUR TRIBE
AND- THESE ABOARD PERMIT ISSUES.
EACH PROVISION OF THIS BILL AND
I THINK THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT
TO NOTE IS ALIGNED WITH H. C.
D.'S CURRENT ADOPTED GUIDANCE OF
CURRENT LAW. IT ADDRESSES THE
CONFUSION AND HOW THE LAW IS
WRITTEN THAT CITIES IN
APPLICANTS HAVE REPEATEDLY
STRUGGLED TO INTERPRET ON REAL
PROJECTS IN CALIFORNIA OVER THE
LAST FEW YEARS- IT'S ALSO THE
FINAL OUTCOME THAT I'VE SEEN IN
CITIES AND APPLICANTS TO
MUTUALLY AGREE UPON AT THE END
OF THESE CONFLICTS. HIS IS THE
PROPER INTERPRETATION OF. AFTER
DIGGING IN FURTHER WITH THEIR
ATTORNEY H. C. D. AND SARAH AND
IT'S ALSO IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
ORIGINAL SPIRIT OF EIGHTY LAWS
AT THIS EXACT LEGISLATURE HAS
PASSED IN RECENT YEARS- I DON'T
NEED TO GO OVER EACH. ONE IT'S
OF THE BELL. ALLUDES IN HIS
BIRTHDAY. BUT I DO WANT TO
MENTION THAT MY TEAM HAS
PERMITTED OVER ONE HUNDRED
EIGHTY USE THROUGHOUT CALIFORNIA
COMMUNITIES AND HAS COLLABORATED
EXTENSIVELY WITH LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS AND WITH EACH CD. TO
ENSURE THE CALIFORNIA STATE LINE
GUIDELINES. HOPEFULLY WITH
CLARITY. AND CALIFORNIA CITIES
HAVE THE RESOURCES AND TRAINING
TO PROCESS THE IS EIGHTY YEARS
ACCORDINGLY- IN CONCLUSION I
WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU. A GREAT
REAL LIFE EXAMPLE OF THE
BENEFITS OF THIS BILL- IN THE
LAST TWELVE MONTHS MY TEAM IS
HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT THE EXACT
SAME ISSUE. REGARDING WHICH
DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS CAN APPLY
TO SMALL EXEMPTION EIGHTY USE
UNDER TODAY'S CURRENT LAW. THE
GUIDELINES IN EACH CD AND THE
STATUTE PASSED BY THIS
LEGISLATURE HAVE DIFFERENT
LEVELS OF DETAIL ABOUT WHAT IS
X. CERTAIN DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
THEY'RE NOT CONFLICTING BUT THEY
HAVE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DETAIL.
AND SO THIS CREATES A LOT OF
CONFUSION AMONG PLANNERS WERE
READING ONE DOCUMENT AMONG
ATTORNEYS WERE READING FIRST
ANOTHER DOCUMENT AND THEN
APPLICANTS ARE TRYING TO
NAVIGATE THE GUIDANCE THAT EXIST
OUT IN THE WORLD. IN EVERY
SINGLE ONE OF THESE DOZEN
SITUATIONS WHEN WE ESCALATED THE
ISSUE TO H. CITY'S TECHNICAL.
UNIT TO PROVIDE NEUTRAL PARTY
PLEASE GIVE US THE RIGHT
INTERPRETATION WE CAN ALL BE ON
THE SAME PAGE. THREE SINGLE TIME
THEY LANDED AT THE SAME
CONCLUSION ON THESE ISSUES AND I
THINK AND- THING TO BE. THE.
BUT IT DOES LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF
SCARCE LOCAL AND STATE RESOURCES
THAT ARE BEING SPENT GETTING TO
THE BOTTOM OF WHAT EXACTLY
EIGHTY AWESOME TENDING SO IN
CONCLUSION CHURN MEMBERS THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR CONSIDERING THIS
BILL TODAY AND FOR SUPPORTING
ABUNDANT AFFORDABLE HOUSING
OPPORTUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE
STATE. I BELIEVE THIS BILL WILL
INCREASE CERTAINTY ON TIMELINES
FOR HOMEOWNERS WHICH WE KNOW IS
IMPORTANT IMPROVE THE CLARITY OF
EXISTING LAW AS IT APPLIES TO
THESE COMMON IN BIG. IT TIONS.
SURE THAT CITY TO. RESTRICT WORD
AT SITTING GUIDANCE FROM THE
STATE ON HOW TO PROCESS THESE
PERMITS THANK YOU. THANK YOU

AS AMENDED AB TWENTY FIVE SIXTY
ESTABLISHES A PILOT PROGRAM FOR
ALAMEDA AND CONTRA COSTA COUNTY
AND THE CITIES WITH THOSE WITHIN
THESE. I PROPERTIES INTO
OPPORTUNITIES FOR FIRST TIME
HOME BUYERS AB TWENTY FIVE SIXTY
ACCOMPLISHES THIS BY DIRECTING
THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO
IDENTIFY THEIR BLIGHTED
PROPERTIES AND DEVELOP A PLAN IN
CONJUNCTION WITH NONPROFIT
DEVELOPERS. LOCAL COMMUNITY
FOUNDATIONS AND LOCAL FINANCIAL
INSTITUTIONS TO REVITALIZE THOSE
PROPERTIES AND RETURN THEM TO
COMMUNITY HANDS. ADDITIONALLY
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE ASKED TO
IDENTIFY BARRIERS TO
IMPLEMENTING THIS PROGRAM AND
WORK TO REMOVING TO REMOVE THM.
THIS PROGRAM SPRINGS FROM A VERY
SUCCESSFUL PILOT IN THE CITY OF
RICHMOND WHICH I'M VERY FAMILIAR
WITH WHERE THE SPONSORS
TRANSFORM TO BLIGHTED PROPERTIES
INTO NEW HOMES FOR THE FIRST
TIME HOME BUYERS AND IN THE
PROCESS REDUCED CRIME AND THE
COSTS TO THE CITY FOR AFFECTED
NEIGHBORHOODS. MEMBERS
HOMEOWNERSHIP REMAINS A VERY
DISTANT DREAM FOR FAR TOO MANY
AS THE RACIAL WEALTH GAP
CONTINUES TO WIDEN WITH EACH
GENERATION. AN UNPRECEDENTED
NUMBER OF HOMES ARE BOUGHT UP BY
INVESTORS WITH NO CONNECTION TO
THE COMMUNITY WITH THIS BILL WE
ARE RECLAIMING ABANDONED
NEGLECTED HOMES AND RENTAL IN
REDLINED NEIGHBORHOODS. FOR THE
BENEFITS OF THE COMMUNITY TO
KEEP OUR STREETS SAFE AND TO
START BUILDING AND REBUILDING
BLACK AND BROWN WELL FOR
OURSELVES AND OUR CHILDREN.

HOUSING SERVICES ARE ARE CAST IS
A HOT APPROVED COUNSELLING
AGENCY AN INFILL COMMUNITY
DEVELOPER. OUR NHS HAS LEARNED
FIRSTHAND THE DIFFICULTY OF
BUILDING AFFORDABLE FORCE
HOUSING WITH PRIMARILY DUE TO
LACK OF SUBSIDY IN FINANCING FOR
THIS TYPE OF. FIVE THE REMEDY
ISSUE AND OUR MEETING COST COSTA
THROUGH. PROGRAM WHERE FIRST
BLIGHTED VACANT PROPERTY WILL BE
IDENTIFIED BY LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
AND THAT WAS TO PROPERTY SHARE.
THE DEVELOPER'S. SECOND LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS WERE GIVEN THE
OPPORTUNITY TO COLLABORATE WITH
REGIONAL CHARITABLE FOUNDATIONS
AND FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS TO
CREATE NEW FUNDING MODELS TO
SUPPORT AFFORDABLE
HOMEOWNERSHIP. THE OUTCOME OF
THESE TWO MEASURES WILL BE
FORMALLY APPLY BLIGHTED VACANT
HOMES IT RE HAPPENED SOUL TO
WORKING CLASS FAMILIES. ALONG
WITH INCREASED REVENUES FOR
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. AB TWENTY
FIVE SIXTY IS BASED ON A PROVEN
MODEL FIRST DEMONSTRATED IN THE

PRESIDENT CEO OF THE RICHMOND
COMMUNITY FOUNDATION AND RCF
CONNECTS. WHICH IS THE REGIONAL
FOUNDATION FOR A CONTRA COSTA
COUNTY. AND I'M HERE TO SPEAK AS
A SPONSOR AND IN SUPPORT OF AB
TWENTY FIVE SIXTY. NOW IN
RICHMOND WILL LAUNCH THE PILOT
WE HAD OVER TWO HUNDRED BOARDED
UP SINGLE FAMILY HOMES IN THE
CITY AND THESE WERE COSTING OUR
CITY. ABOUT POINT FOUR MILLION
DOLLARS PER YEAR JUST TO KEEP
THE BOARDED UP. AND THAT MEANS
THEY CONTINUE TO DECLINE. THERE
WAS NO FINANCING TO RECLAIM THE
SMALL LOT INFILL SITE SO WE IN
THE CITY CREATED OUR OWN. WE
LOOKED AT A MODEL WHERE THE CITY
WAS A CONDUIT ISSUER OF THE
INVESTMENT. WE IS THE COMMUNITY
FOUNDATION WHERE THE BAR WERE
AND WE BROUGHT INVESTORS TO THE
TABLE WHO. FOR THE RETURN OF
THEIR PRINCIPAL AND A SMALL RATE
OF RETURN WE'RE HAPPY TO INVEST
IN THESE PROJECTS. SO MANY
CITIES DEAL WITH WITH PLOY AND
BLIGHTED PROPERTIES IN AB TWENTY
FIVE SIXTY WILL HELP OTHER
JURISDICTIONS THAT WE SERVE
BRING THESE PROPERTIES BACK. AND
OPEN UP THE OPPORTUNITIES THEY
HAVE FOR HOMEOWNERSHIP
PARTICULARLY IN COMMUNITIES OF
COLOR. AB TWENTY FIVE SIXTY
HIGHLIGHTS THE IMPORTANCE OF
CITY CODE ENFORCEMENT TEAMS AS
CRITICAL PARTNERS PROVIDING THE
INFORMATION ON AND ACCESS TO THE
BLIGHTED ABANDONED HOMES SO THAT
PROGRAMS LIKE THE ONE DEVELOPED
IN RICHMOND. CAN EVALUATE
REQUIRE REHAB AND THEN SELL THEM
TO GRADUATES OF THE LOCAL HAD
CERTIFIED FIRST TIME HOME BUYER
GRANTS. AND SAYS SURE THE IMPACT
TO THE CITY OF RICHMOND ON THE
PILOT. SO OVER THE FIVE YEAR
PERIOD OF THE PILOT. WE WERE
THESE CODE FORSMAN COSTS BY OVER
THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS PER YEAR. WE PAID IN THE
RECLAMATION OF THESE PROPERTIES
OVER EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND AND
UNPAID PROPERTY TAXES AND COULD
FORCE MILLIONS. WE PROVIDED SIX
AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS IN
LOCAL SPENDING. WE INCREASED
ANNUAL PROPERTY TAX REVENUE BY A
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS PER
YEAR. AND ACCORDING TO THE NBA
THE HOMEOWNERS NATIONAL BUILDING
ASSOCIATIONS IS MADE THE
HOMEOWNERS THAT WE BROUGHT INTO
THE COMMUNITY. PROVIDE OVER
SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND A YEAR
AND IMPACT IN THE LOCAL ECONOMY
AND WE HAD A FIFTY PERCENT. AND
SOMETIMES GREATER REDUCTION IN
CRIME IN THESE NEIGHBORHOODS. AB
TWENTY FIVE SIXTY WILL ALLOW
OTHER COMMUNITIES IN THIS PILOT
TO RECLAIM THIS DILAPIDATED
HOUSING STOCK AND RECAP SIMILAR
BENEFITS. WE HAVE INTEREST FROM
K INVESTORS WITH ABOUT TEN
MILLION CAPITAL SITTING IN THE
WINGS FOR THIS PILOT HAS
DESCRIBED IN THE BILL THAT
INCLUDES CONTRA COSTA COUNTY AND
OTHER CITIES IN THE COUNTY. THE
CITY OF ALEJO'S WHICH I REALIZE
IS NOT PART OF THIS BILL BUT IS
INTERESTED CITY OF HAYWARD THE
CITY OF OAKLAND AND ALAMEDA
COUNTY. AB TWENTY FIVE SIXTY
