VERY MUCH THAT'S BUSY OUT THERE
MADAM CHAIR. GOOD MORNING
EVERYBODY- TODAY I'D LIKE TO
START OFF BY ACCEPTING THE
COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS FOR AND
HELP THANK THEM FOR THEIR WORK
ON S. B. TWO SIXTY SEVEN ARMS A
SIMPLE BILL I'VE WORKED ON LAST
YEAR BASICALLY WHEN WE GIVE OUT
HOUSING VOUCHERS WE EXPECT THE
PEOPLE GET THEM ARE GOING TO
HAVE TROUBLE. THEY'VE HAD
THEY'VE HAD TROUBLE EITHER IT'S-
YOU KNOW COULD BE VETERANS COULD
BE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES COULD BE
ALL KINDS OF ISSUES BUT THAT
BOUT YOU ONCE YOU GET IT IS
GOLDEN EXCEPT WHEN YOU GO TO USE
IT SOMETIMES AND THEY ASK FOR A
CREDIT CHECK. WE MIGHT BE
SURPRISED AT PEOPLE HAVE BAD
CREDIT WHEN THEY'RE NEEDING A
HOUSING VOUCHER THAT SHOULDN'T
SURPRISE ANY OF US AND IT SEEMS
RIDICULOUS THAT WE HAVE THAT AS
A CRITERIA. SO WHAT WE'RE SAYING
IS WHEN I AND WE KNOW THAT WITH
HOUSING ABOUT YOUR MOSTLY 70% OF
YOUR RENT WILL ALREADY BE PAID
THIS IS JUST THAT 30% PROVING
THAT SOMEBODY CAN PAY IT SO THIS
JUST SAYS. THAT INSTEAD OF JUST
GETTING A CREDIT CHECK. SOMEBODY
CAN ALSO THEY CAN BE ASK FOR
CREDIT CHECK BUT THEY CAN ALSO
GIVE OTHER FORMS OF VERIFIABLE
ID ERA INFORMATION. THAT SAYS
THAT WHEN THEY ARE THEY CAN MAKE
THAT 30% AND BE ABLE TO USE YOUR
VOUCHER AND RENT A PLACE AND
WITH ME HERE TO TESTIFY. IS JUST
QUAN. FROM THE SAN JOAQUIN
COUNTY HOUSING AUTHORITY. GOOD
MORNING THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING
ME TO STOP. TO SUPPORT SB TWO
SIXTY SEVEN. ALSO THANK YOU TO
SENATOR EGGMAN- I DO APPRECIATE
YOU SPEAR HEADING THIS BILL. MY
NAME IS JESSICA QUAN AND I AM
THE DIRECTOR OF OCCUPANCY IN
HOUSING COMPLIANCE AT THE
HOUSING AUTHORITY THE COUNTY OF
SAM OKEY. IN MY FIFTEEN YEARS OF
EXPERIENCE THE BEST TOOL THAT WE
HAVE IN OUR TOOLBOX TO SUPPORT
AFFORDABLE HOUSING. IS USING THE
VOUCHER PROGRAM. THE HOUSING
AUTHORITY THE COUNTY SAN JOAQUIN
HAS FIVE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED.
AND FORTY SIX VOUCHERS AND THAT
INCLUDES OUR SPECIALIZED
PROGRAMS. UNFORTUNATELY THERE'S
A PORTION OF THOSE DOCTORS LIKE
THE ONE USED. AND THAT IS DUE TO
CREDIT. DR HOLDERS ARE OFTEN
UNABLE TO FIND A UNIT. AS A
CREDIT CHECK COMES BACK WITH
LITTLE TO NO CREDIT. RENTAL
SUBSIDY PROVIDED BY. THE
EMPHASIS OF THE VOUCHER PROGRAM.
WILL VALUE THE CREDIT SCORE. THE
VOUCHER PROVIDES INCOME SUPPORT.
TO THE ACTUAL HOUSEHOLD AS IT
OVERALL INCOME. SO THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INCOME AND
CREDIT ARE TETHERED THIS ALLOWS
THE VOUCHER TO BE AN INTERVENING
MECHANISM. AND MAKING A
RETROSPECTIVE CREDIT SCORE LESS
VALUABLE. BY CONSIDERING THE
BENEFITS OF THE VOUCHER IN LIEU
OF CREDIT. MORE AFFORDABLE
HOUSING CAN BE PROVIDED TO
FAMILIES. FOR THE RENTAL
ASSISTANCE PROGRAM TO GO WHEN
USED. IS A TRAGEDY. WE WILL
CONTINUE TO WORK SENATOR
EGGMAN'S OFFICE. TO USE FEDERAL
FUNDING IN SUPPORT OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING INITIATIVES. AND I
APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. THANK YOU.

APPRECIATE WHAT APPRECIATE THIS
I REFER BRING THIS FOR I KNOW
THERE WAS A SOMEWHAT SIMILAR
BILL THAT- WE WAS NOT ABLE TO
MOVE FOR IS I'M REALLY GRATEFUL
THAT YOU CONTINUED ON THIS
JOURNEY. AND I REMEMBER- OF THE
PREVIOUS BILL- THAT SUMMER
THREE OF US HAD- AUTHORED AT THE
TIME I HAD MY FATHER NOT OR THE
PROVERBIAL MOM AND POP LANDLORDS
AND- FIVE OUR FIRST FAMILY HOME
MY FATHER STARTED RENTING OUT
SECTION IN OVER THREE DECADES
AGO BEFORE CREDIT HISTORIES
EXISTED. AND TO THIS DAY STILL
THAT RENTS ABOUT SECTION EIGHT
AND I ASKED HIM BECAUSE I HAVE
MY OPINIONS BUT I'M PRETTY FAR
LEFT ON THE PROGRESSES
SECTOR-LIMÓN ASK MY DAD LIKE YOU
KNOW HE'S BEEN DOING THIS FOR A
WHILE MY DAD YOU WANT. WOULD YOU
NEED TO HAVE A CREDIT HISTORY-
YOU KNOW IF YOU'RE IF YOU'RE-
MOVING OUT SO SHE'S LIKE THERE'S
NO NEED FOR IT. BECAUSE THE
GOVERNMENT'S ALREADY DONE. ALL
THAT JACKSON SO AS LONG AS
THEY'RE WORKING OR HAVE SOME
OTHER FORM INCOME THAT'S ALL
THAT MATTERS AND SO- I JUST
MENTION THAT BECAUSE SOMETIMES
WE BE. IN THIS COMMITTEE IN
PARTICULAR WE HEAR. RHETORIC
ABOUT. WHAT A MOM AND POP
LANDLORDS ARE GOING THROUGH AND
WHAT HAVE YOU AND I THINK IN IN
REAL LIFE. AT THE END OF THE
DAY- THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT
WAYS. TO ENSURE THAT ALL PARTIES
ARE ARE TAKEN CARE OF AND ARE
HELD RESPONSIBLE- AND SO I
THINK- THIS BILL I THINK GOES A
LONG WAY. IN ENSURING THAT
FAMILIES THAT NEED HOUSING. HAD
OPPORTUNITY TO SECURE IT AND-
HOW CAN ARTIFICIAL BARRIERS.
THAT WE PUT AS GOVERNMENT IN THE
WAY- CAN BE REMOVED AND SO I
REALLY APPRECIATED THAT WOULD
REALLY. APPRECIATE BEING OUT AS
A CO AUTHOR THAT'S OKAY WITH YOU
THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO IN
MEMBER. MISS QUIRK-SILVA. GOOD
MORNING AND THANK YOU WANNA
THING THE AUTHOR AS WELL- WE'VE
BEEN HEARING FOR QUITE. OF YEARS
. THIS HAS COME. BUT I THINK WE
NEED TO NORMALIZE THE
CONVERSATION ABOUT- A SECTION
EIGHT. VOUCHER HOLDER IS I MEAN
THERE HAS BEEN SUCH A NARRATIVE
FOR REALLY DECADES. AND IT HAS
REALLY BEEN INGRAINED INTO THE
FABRIC. OF MANY TIMES LANDLORDS
AND WE HAVE DONE WORK ON THIS
BUT IT'S BECOME INTO UPON NOW
THE INSTITUTIONS TO START TO.
REALLY LOOK CLOSER AT WHO THIS
PERSON IS WHO. NOT ONLY HAS
QUALIFIED FOR A VOUCHER BUT ALL
THE VETTING. HIND ATTAINING THE
VOUCHER BECAUSE IT IS NOT AN
EASY THING TO DO FOR SOME PEOPLE
THERE ON A LIST FOR. WELL OVER A
DECADE- NOT ONLY ATTAINING THE
VOUCHER IS ONE THING BUT ALSO
THERE'S FOLLOW UPS- THERE'S A
LOT OF TRANSPARENCY AND THE
SADDEST THING THAT WE'VE SEEN
OVER THESE YEARS. IS THAT SOME
OF THOSE VOUCHERS GO UNUSED
BECAUSE THE- INDIVIDUALS CANNOT
ATTAIN AN APARTMENT WITH THOSE
VOUCHERS THAT ARE SAYING WE WILL
PROVIDE 70% SUBSIDY SO. MY AND
MY HOPE IS WITH THIS PIECE OF
LEGISLATION- THOSE WHO REPRESENT
INSTITUTIONS WILL START TO
REALLY LOOK CLOSER AT DEFINING
THAT BECAUSE I KNOW IN ORANGE
COUNTY. IT'S LIKE- FINDING A
GOLD PIECE OF SUCH GOLD PIECE IN
THE IN THE SIDEWALK BECAUSE IT'S
SO DIFFICULT TO FIND SOMEBODY
WHO EXCEPT ONE EVEN ONCE THEY
HAVE ONE SO THANK YOU FOR
BRINGING THIS FORWARD THANK YOU
. GREAT ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM
COMMITTEE MEMBERS. AND I THINK
WE A SECOND ON THE MOTION DOES.
A SECOND BY MISS KOREA WITH THAT
WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE THANK
YOU VERY MUCH I THINK YOU'VE-
ILLUSTRATED THAT THE REASON FOR
THIS BILL HOUSING IS PEOPLE.
HUMANITY DIGNITY IT'S THE RIGHT
THING TO DO I ASK FOR YOUR I.
THANK YOU I'M HAPPY TO SUPPORT
THE BILL TODAY I THINK VOUCHERS
ARE OBVIOUSLY AN IMPORTANT PART
OF OUR SOLUTION HERE I KNOW WE-
WILL LEAVE A LOT OF FEDERAL
MONEY ON THE TABLE BECAUSE
THEY'RE NOT USED IN. THE WAY
THAT THEY NEED TO BE- SO
APPRECIATE THIS AND ESPECIALLY
WHEN VOUCHERS PROVIDE A
GUARANTEED PAYMENTS THAT SHOULD
OFFSET THE NEED FOR THE CREDIT
CHECK SO. THANK YOU- COULD AS
THE AUTHOR HAPPY TO MOVE THE
BILL THE MOTION IS OUT OF MY
COMMITTEES TO PASS TO AS AMENDED

YOUR FIRST. GOOD MORNING ARCHER
WICKS AND COMMITTEE MEMBERS-
IT'S AN HONOR TO BE HERE TODAY
IN SUPPORT OF SB FIVE FIVE FIVE
WHICH IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF
SOLVING CALIFORNIA'S HOUSING
CRISIS. LAST MONTH I MET HOUSING
LEADERS FROM AROUND THE WORLD AT
THE GLOBAL AFFORDABLE HOUSING
CONFERENCE TO LEARN ABOUT THE
INNOVATIVE AND VISIONARY
PROJECTS CURRENTLY UNDER WAY TO
ADDRESS THE HOUSING AND CLIMATE
CRISIS ONE OF THE SPOTLIGHTS WAS
SOCIAL HOUSING. AND RECENTLY I
TRAVELED TO VIENNA AUSTRIA ALONG
WITH A FEW OF YOUR COLLEAGUES
AND LEADERS FROM ACROSS
CALIFORNIA TO LEARN ABOUT THE
END OF SOCIAL HOUSING SYSTEM Y.
VIENNA AND WHY SOCIAL HOUSING.
BECAUSE TODAY BEYOND THAT IS
CONSIDERED THE MOST LIVABLE CITY
IN THE ENTIRE WORLD BUT A
HUNDRED YEARS AGO. THEY HAD THE
WORST HOUSING IN ALL OF EUROPE.
AND IN SOME WAYS VIENNA WAS
SIMILAR TO CALIFORNIA THE
POPULATION AT THE TIME WAS TWO
MILLION WITH AN ESTIMATED THIRTY
THOUSAND VISIBLE HOMELESS.
RESIDENTS AND THOUSANDS MORE AT
LIVING IN HORRENDOUS SLUM
CONDITIONS TODAY THE END OF
POPULATION IS STILL JUST AROUND
TWO MILLION BUT THEY HAVE BIRCH
BELIEVE NO LAW HOMELESSNESS. HE
SAID ESTAMOS RECENT OF. PEOPLE
IS ONLY IN THE HUNDREDS CAN'T
EXPRESS TO YOU WHAT IT WAS LIKE
TO GO IN TRAVEL AND GET OFF OF
THE PLANE AND WALK AROUND AND BE
IN A CITY WHERE VIRTUALLY NOBODY
WAS WORRIED ABOUT THEIR HOUSING
AT ALL. A HUNDRED YEARS AGO
VIENNA HAD AN EMPTY. I PROBLEM
FOOD SHORTAGE SEVERE HOUSING
PROBLEMS AND A MAJOR HOUSING
CRISIS AND EVEN STILL NOT
EVERYONE SUPPORTED SOCIAL
HOUSING IT WAS POLITICALLY AND
SOCIALLY CONTENTIOUS BUT
COURAGEOUS RESIDENTS. AND
LEADERS WITH A BOLDER VISION PUT
BE ON ON A PATHWAY TO SOLVE
THEIR HOUSING CRISIS TODAY THEY
ARE A BEACON OF HOPE WITH A
PROVEN TRACK RECORD OF
OVERCOMING WHAT MUST HAVE SEEMED
LIKE AN UNSOLVABLE CRISIS.
THERE'S MANY IMPORTANT THINGS TO
KNOW ABOUT THE ON HIS JOURNEY
ONE OF THAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT
IS THE SETTLEMENT MOVEMENT THAT
WAS SUPPORTED IT INVESTED IN AN
INSTITUTIONALIZED THOUSANDS OF
ON HOUSE RESIDENTS FORM
SETTLEMENTS ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF
THE CITY THEY ORGANIZE
THEMSELVES INTO COOPERATIVES
ASSOCIATIONS. PULLED THEIR
RESOURCES TOGETHER SECURED BANK
LOANS RECEIVED FINANCIAL SUPPORT
FROM THE GOVERNMENT FORMED
NONPROFIT CORPORATIONS AND THEY
ARE STILL THRIVING TODAY THE
GOVERNMENT'S INCORPORATED THE
SETTLEMENTS INTO THE PLANNED
URBAN DEVELOPMENT AND
ESTABLISHED A MUNICIPAL
SETTLEMENT OFFICE. THEY
DESIGNATED PUBLIC LAND IN
VARIOUS AREAS OF THE CITY AND
CREATED A PUBLIC UTILITY AND
BUILDING MATERIAL CORPORATION.
THE LIST IS ENDLESS IN TERMS OF
WHAT VIENNA HAS DONE TO
TRANSFORM THEIR HOUSING SYSTEM
INTO ONE WHERE EVERYBODY HAS A
PERMANENTLY SAFE AFFORDABLE
PLACE TO LIVE AND SB FIVE FIVE
FIVE IS GOING TO HELP CREATE A
CALIFORNIA SOCIAL HOUSING PLAN.
THAT WILL PUT CALIFORNIA ON A
SIMILAR TRAJECTORY THANK YOU SO

PRIMARY WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION
. MADAM CHAIR MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE JENNIFER SPOKE ABOUT
THE CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF
REALTORS LET ME BE CLEAR HELP US
HERE DOES NOT OPPOSE SOCIAL
HOUSING WHAT WE DO HAVE CONCERNS
WITH IS A CONSTANT PRESSURE THAT
WE'RE SEEING ON ENTRY LEVEL
MARKET RATE HOUSING ONE OF THE
SIGNIFICANT CONCERNS THAT WE
HAVE AS WE BELIEVE THAT SOCIAL
HOUSING PROGRAMS FUNDED BY THE
STATE REALLY NEEDED TO FOCUS ON.
CREATING NEW HOUSING TO OUR
SUPPLY AND NOT SHIFTING THE DECK
CHAIRS ON A SINKING SHIP
AFFORDABILITY AS WE CONSTANTLY
SEE AN INCREASE COST PRESSURE
OVER THE LAST DECADE I
INCREASING HOUSING PRICES BY
MORE THAN DOUBLE WE REALLY DO
FEEL THAT THIS STUDY AND OTHER
MEASURES OF ITS NATURE REALLY DO
NEED TO FOCUS ON CREATING. MORE
UNITS AS OPPOSED TO CONVERTING
SINGLE FAMILY ONE TO FOUR
HOUSING INTEGRATED DETER
CORPORATE OWNERSHIP THANK YOU.
THANK YOU ANY ADDITIONAL FOLKS
IN THE ROOM WHICH EXPRESS
OPPOSITION. WE'LL BRING IT BACK
TO THE COMMITTEE ANY QUESTIONS
MISS QUIRK-SILVA. YES I SUPPORT
THE BILL AND MAKE A MOTION TO
MOVE IT BUT I DO WANT TO SAY
THAT- UNDER THE SOCHI HOW SOCIAL
HOUSING UMBRELLA WE DO HAVE HAD
ANOTHER BILL IN THE ASSEMBLY
AND- I WAS. NEEDING TO BE
CONVINCED A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN
I AM WITH THIS. PARTICULAR BILL-
BUT MOSTLY NOT ON THE CONCEPT OF
SOCIAL HOUSING I MEAN I THINK WE
NEED TO BE BOLD WE NEED TO LOOK
AT MODELS. IN THE PAST AND WE
NEED TO MOVE THE BAR MUCH
FURTHER THAN WE HAVE. MY CONCERN
HAS BEEN WHEN WE PUT THINGS ON
THE STATE TO DO BECAUSE I HAVE
NOT ALWAYS SEEN THE STATE MOVES
AS URGENTLY AS WE NEED TO SO
SOME OF OUR MAJOR INFRASTRUCTURE
PROP. PROJECTS DON'T SEEM TO GET
MOVING AND ON TRACK A SO THAT IS
MY CONCERN BUT I CERTAINLY AM
NOT GOING TO SHRINK FROM THE
IDEA OF US BEING BOLDER- LOOKING
MORE TOWARDS THE FUTURE AND
BOTTOM LINE HOUSING PEOPLE. IT'S
ABSOLUTELY UNCONSCIONABLE WHAT
WE SEE IN THE STREETS EVERY DAY
EVEN SURROUNDING THIS CAPITAL I
WENT ON A MORNING WALK A FEW
DAYS AGO. AND COUNTED HOW MANY
ON HEALTH PEOPLE WE HAVE JUST
THROUGH THE WALK AND IT'S WE
SHOULD ALL BE- ASHAMED OF WHAT
WE'RE SEEING ON THE STREETS OF
CALIFORNIA AND ALSO THROUGHOUT
THE UNITED STATES SO IT IS. UPON
US TO DO MORE AND TO DO IT FAST.
WITHOUT A SUPPORT YOUR BILL
THANK YOU. THANK YOU WE HAVE A
MOTION AND A SECOND ANY OTHER
QUESTIONS FROM MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE. OKAY WITH THAT WOULD
YOU LIKE WOULD YOU LIKE TO

MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION WE
COUNT FOR. ALL POSSIBILITIES- TO
PROVIDE HOUSING FOR THOSE- THAT
NEEDED- YOU KNOW THE OUTCOME MAY
BE THAT THE CITY HAS- TO DO WHAT
WE'VE BEEN ASKING THEM TO DO IS
TO MAKE STREAMLINED EFFORTS IS
ALSO. A FOCUS ON MODERATE LOW
INCOME OR EXTREMELY LOW INCOME
WHICH THIS BILL IS AS PRIMARILY
FOCUSED ON AND SO I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE THANK YOU.

PRIVATE NO ONE THAT HOUSING IS
SO EXPENSIVE I TO HELP ADDRESS
THE CRISIS SB THIRTY FIVE
PROVIDES A STREAMLINED PATH FOR
NEW HOMES IN JURISDICTIONS THAT
ARE NOT MEETING THEIR FAIR SHARE
OF NEW HOUSING. THE TURNER
CENTER HAS REPORTED THAT THROUGH
TWENTY TWENTY ONE SUCH AS THE
FIRST FEW YEARS THAT THE BILL IS
IN A FACT AND NOT INCLUDING LAST
YEAR- MORE THAN EIGHTEEN
THOUSAND NEW HOMES HAVE BEEN
PROPOSED UNDER SB THIRTY FIVE-
WITH ABOUT THREE QUARTERS OF
THEM ALREADY BUILT. ON AND ABOUT
THREE QUARTERS OF THOSE HOMES OR
AFFORDABLE TO VERY LOW OR LOW
INCOME HOUSEHOLDS. SB THIRTY
FIVE HAS ODD TO SIGNIFICANTLY
SHORTEN SHORTEN PROJECT
TIMELINES- BY YEARS SO PROJECTS
THAT WERE TAKING YEARS. TO BE
APPROVED ARE NOW TAKING MONTHS
TO BE APPROVED- HOWEVER THE BILL
WAS DESIGNED TO SPUR NEW HOMES
AT ALL INCOME LEVELS FROM. FOR
FOLKS WHO ARE FORMERLY HOMELESS-
UP TO PRIVATELY PRODUCED MARC
READ HOUSING- WE NOW THAT WE
HAVE SO YEARS OF. WE ARE MAKING
POSING A JUST. TO THIRTY FOR.
THROUGH BEFORE TWO THREE. I TO
MAKE SURE- DIED THE BILL THE LAW
IS AS EFFECTIVE AS POSSIBLE I
WANT TO NOTE THAT WE HAVE SPENT
A LOT OF TIME ON THE STILL
WORKING. WITH OUR PARTNERS AND
SOME CRITICS- IN THE HOUSE OF
LABOR I WANT TO THANK ON THE-
VERY BROAD LABOR SUPPORT THAT WE
HAVE. INCLUDING ARE CO SPONSORS
ARE CARPENTERS AS WELL AS THE
LABORERS OPERATING ENGINEERS- I
THINK AS OF TODAY I SEE ARE YOU
BUT I WON'T SPEAK. UP FOR THEM-
AS WELL- AND I WANT TO ALSO
THANK- THE BUILDING TRADES ARE
WHO WHO HAVE BEEN OPPOSING THE
BILL FOR WORKING WITH US. AS
WELL INCLUDING- THE- BUILDING
TRADES UNIONS- IDW SHEETMETAL-
ELEVATOR CONSTRUCTORS AND PIPE
TRADES THAT HAVE WITHDRAWN THEIR
OPPOSITION TO THE BILL BASED ON
AMENDMENTS THAT WE MADE- IN THE
SENATE. ON TO- DRAW DISTINCTION
BETWEEN OVER EIGHTY FIVE C. AND
UNDER EIGHTY FIVE AND I DO WANT
TO THANK FOLKS FOR WORKING WITH
US. I'M SO COLLEAGUES THIS IS AN
IMPORTANT HOUSING BILL I'M
APPRECIATIVE FOR YOUR ENGAGEMENT
AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR LIVE
OAKS I WITH ME TODAY TO TESTIFY
AS IG BROADSOFT. EXECUTIVE
OFFICER WITH THE NOR CAL
CARPENTERS UNION- I MARINO Y.
AND THE VICE PRESIDENT OF
GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS. WITH THE
CALIFORNIA HOUSING CONSORTIUM.
GOOD MORNING JERRY MEMBERS-
RIGHT AWAY WITH A HEALTHY HOW
AND- ADDED TO CORE SB TWENTY SB
THIRTY FIVE AND SB FOUR TWENTY
THREE IT IS ABOUT HOLDING IT
COMMUNITIES ACCOUNTABLE TO THEIR
HOUSING PLANS AND THEY'RE
HOUSING GOALS. IF A PRODUCT
PROPOSED PROJECT IS CONSISTENT
WITH THE GENERAL PLAN AND IT
MEETS OBJECTIVE DESIGN REVIEW
STANDARDS AND AFFORDABLE
DEVELOPER SHOULD HAVE THE
ASSURANCE OF THE PROJECT WILL BE
ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD. I'M TO BE
APPROVED TO ANSWER CONSTRUCTION.
THIS IS WHY SB THIRTY FIVE HAS
BEEN SUCH AN INCREDIBLE TOOL FOR
PROMOTING AFFORDABLE HOUSING
DEVELOPMENT NEARLY 75% OF THE
UNITS THE SENATOR WIENER- NOTED-
ARE FOR LOW OR VERY LOW INCOME
HOUSEHOLDS. AND IT'S A
PARTICULARLY POWERFUL TOOL IN
COMMUNITIES OF COMPLEX APPROVAL
PROCESS SEES WHO. WHO ARE
SUPPORT OF A FORM OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING IN COMMUNITIES OF
OPPORTUNITY THAT ARE RELUCTANT
TO MEET THEIR HOUSING
OBLIGATIONS. BY EXTENDING SB
THIRTY FIVE CENTS AT DATE SB
FOUR TWENTY THREE WILL ENSURE
THAT AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PROVIDERS CONTINUE TO HAVE
ACCESS TO THE STREAMLINED
PROCESS UNTIL TWENTY THIRTY
FIVE. AND ALLOW AFFORDABLE
HOUSING DEVELOPERS TO PLAN
THEIR- THEIR PIPELINE BEYOND THE
NEXT TWO YEARS. THE PAST FEW
YEARS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF ALSO
REVEALED SEVERAL AREAS WHERE IT
CAN BE STRENGTHENS AND SB FOUR
TWENTY THREE APPLIES THOSE
LESSONS LEARNED TO GET MORE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING BILLS. AND TO
ACCELERATE DEVELOPMENT OF MIXED
INCOME HOUSING PROJECTS WITH
THAT WHICH HAVE BEEN LESS
SUCCESSFUL AT USING SB THIRTY
FIVE PROCESS. SB FOUR TWENTY
THREE IS CRITICAL TO HELPING US
CLOSE OUR TREMENDOUS
AFFORDABILITY GAP AND ENSURE THE
LOWER INCOME CALIFORNIANS HAVE
ACCESS TO SAFE STABLE AFFORDABLE
PLACES TO CALL HOME. IN EVERY
COMMUNITY ACROSS THE STATE. AND
FOR THESE REASONS I URGE YOUR
SUPPORT TODAY- GOOD MORNING
CHAIRMAN WIXEN AUDIBLE MEMBERS
IT'S GOOD TO BE HERE TODAY- I
AM. VERY PROUD TO BE ABLE TO
SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS UNION
SPONSORED BILL- YOU KNOW OUR
COALITION THAT WE'VE BUILT
THAT'S IN STRONG SUPPORT AS
KNOWLEDGE STATEWIDE CARPENTERS
STATEWIDE OPERATING SNEERS STATE
RIDE LABORS ALSO MORE COMMON OUR
DIRECTION INCLUDING THE NOR CAL
DISTRICT COUNCIL CEMENT MASONS.
AND PLASTERERS. I POINT THAT OUT
BECAUSE- THESE ORGANIZATIONS ARE
VERY STRONGLY ENGAGED IN
BRINGING SOLUTIONS THE HOUSING
CRISIS IT'S ALREADY BEEN TALKED
ABOUT. OVER TWO POINT FIVE
MILLION UNITS NEEDED AT A
MINIMUM OVER A MILLION
AFFORDABLE NEEDED. OTHER
CONSTRUCTION WORKFORCE PRESENTLY
CALIFORNIA OVER 50% NEED AND
QUALIFY FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING-
SO THAT IS ALSO THE MAJORITY OF
UNIONIZED CONSTRUCTION WORKERS
IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. A
BIG PART OF THE SUPPORT FOR
THESE BILLS TODAY- FOR SB FOUR
TWENTY THREE. IS THE THREE
HUNDRED THOUSAND OVER THREE AND
A THOUSAND NONUNION WORKERS IN
THE HOUSING CONSTRUCTION
INDUSTRY ONLY 10% CURRENTLY OF
HOUSING STRUCTURE WORKERS ARE
ORGANIZED INTO A UNION- THIS
BILL IS INCLUSIVE. AND BRINGS A
PLATFORM TO POLL WORKERS UP TO
UNION STANDARDS AND WITH THE
STRONGEST LABOR ENFORCEMENT
LANGUAGE IN THE COUNTRY IS AN
ORGANIZING OPPORTUNITY NEVER
SEEN OUR STATE IN AN INDUSTRY.
THAT IS RIFE WITH LABOR LAW
VIOLATIONS- WE REFERRED TO IT AS
CRIME SCENE A PRODUCTION- UNPAID
WAGES EXPLOITATION OF FORM OF
QUOTE HUMAN TRAFFICKING OR
WORKERS ARE MOVED IF THEY HAVE
THE- GUTS TO STAND UP FOR THEIR
RIGHTS. OTHER MOVED AROUND THE
STATE SO THAT IS NOT SAID-
ANECDOTAL- THAT IS BASED ON OUR
ORGANIZATIONS OUT THERE IN THE
HOMES IN THE MOTEL SOMEPLACE
WHERE THESE WORKERS ARE. I SAID
THIS BRINGS A VOICE TO THOSE
WORKERS AND AGAIN IT'S AN
ORGANIZING AN OPPORTUNITY
UNHEARD OF. ARE WE DESPERATELY
NEED HOUSING I KNOW EVERYONE
TALKS ABOUT IT FOR THE WORKING
CLASS OVERALL I WHETHER YOU'RE
IN A UNION OR NOT IT'S THE
NUMBER ONE ISSUE BRINGING SOCIAL
PRESSURE ECONOMIC PRESSURE TO
WORKING FAMILIES IN OUR STATE.
IT EXACERBATING CREATES THE
TRANSPORTATION CRISIS AS WORKERS
CHEAP CHEAPER AND CHEAPER RENT
MOVE FURTHER FURTHER AWAY FROM
THE JOBS- IT IS CREATED THE
CHILD CARE ON AFFORDABILITY
CRISIS. AND THE SOCIAL COST OF
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS THE SECOND
HIGHEST SUICIDE RATES IN THE
NATION AND THE HIGHEST RATES OF
ADDICTION IT IS UP TO ALL OF US
GARRATTS FOR YOUR STRONG SUPPORT
TO BRING SOLUTIONS TO THAT. IT
STARTS WITH HOUSING BUT JUST AS
IMPORTANT WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY
TO ECONOMICALLY PULL THOSE
WORKERS UP AND INTO THE UNION
STANDARD AND GIVE THEM A VOICE
THAT'LL LAST. FOR GENERATIONS.
SO WE ASK YOUR STRONG SUPPORT
RAUNER TO BE HERE TODAY- STAND
FOR INCLUSION OF ALL WORKERS

HAVE ANY WITNESSES OFFICER. AND
MR YEAH EVEN IF ROOM OKAY GREAT
THANK YOU. ACCORDING TO MEASURE
JASON RYAN WEEK CITIES IT'S
ALWAYS TOUGH TO COME UP IN
OPPOSE CONSIDERED WINNERS BILLS
WE HAVE SO MUCH SUPPORT
CAERPHILLY SHOWING OFF A LITTLE
BIT BUT IN ALL SERIOUSNESS WE GO
TO A PRIMARY CONCERNS. WITH THE
BILL- WE COMPLETELY AGREE WITH
SENATOR WIENER AND HIS
SUPPORTERS THAT CITIES MUST
HONOR THEIR HOUSING PLANS THEY
MUST LIVE TO THEIR DESIGN
STANDARDS OBJECTIVE STANDARDS.
THEY'VE LITERALLY WRITTEN THE
RULES FOR DEVELOPMENT IN THEIR
COMMUNITY CAN YOU HOLD ON ONE
SECOND ONE SEE IF THEY CAN CLOSE
THE DOOR SO WE CAN HEAR YOU
BETTER. THANK YOU YEAH I THINK
YOU APPRECIATE- OKAY SO WE
COMPLETELY AGREE WITH BUT CENTER
WINNER AND HIS SUPPORTERS THAT
CITIES MUST HONOR THEIR HOUSING
PLANS. THEY MUST LIVE TO
REJECTED STANDARDS OR DESIGN
STANDARDS THEY'VE LITERALLY
WRITTEN THE RULES FOR DEVELOPING
THEIR COMMUNITY THEY ABSOLUTELY
NEED TO FOLLOW THAT THERE'S NO
GETTING AROUND THAT WHATSOEVER.
UNFORTUNATELY THERE THERE TO
PROVISIONS OF THE BILL TO CREATE
A BIT OF A LOOPHOLE FROM OUR
PERSPECTIVE TO THAT THEORY THE
FIRST WAS ON PAGE SIX AND REALLY
APPRECIATE CENTER WE'RE- TAKING
A MOMENT TO TRY TO TIGHTEN THAT
UP. A NOT THROUGH HIS HIS
ACTIONS WAS ANOTHER BILL PASSED
LAST YEAR THAT BROADEN THE SB
THIRTY FIVE PROVISIONS TO
INCLUDE SITES THAT ARE OUTSIDE A
RESIDENTIAL AND MIXED USE AREAS
THAT'S WHAT THIRTY FIVE DID YOU
MUST BUILD HOUSING IN THOSE
AREAS YOU FORTY PLAN FOR IT. OF
COURSE YOU NEED TO DO IT BUT WAS
BROADENED TO INCLUDE COMMERCIAL
AND RETAIL. IT AND THROUGH THE
CROSS REFERENCE THAT REMAINS IN
THE BILL. IT ACTUALLY BROUGHT IT
TO PARKING AREAS NOW. SO
UNFORTUNATELY AS IT'S PRESENTLY
DRAFTED. THIRTY FIVE PROJECTS
COULD OCCUR IN AREAS THAT WE
NEVER PLANNED FOR AND I KNOW
THAT'S NOT THE INTENT BUT THAT'S
THE WAY IT IS. AND WE DON'T.
LIKE THE WHOLE SECTION JUST TAKE
OUT ENTIRELY. THE SECOND
LOOPHOLE THAT'S BEEN CREATED FOR
TWENTY THREE IS AROUND STATE
OWNED PROPERTY OR PROPERTY THAT
THEY LEASE. IN THE BILL NOW THE
DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES
AND A CD. CAN LITERALLY ACT AS
THE CITY IT SAYS IN THE BILL
THEY CAN ACT AS THE CITY. SO
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN THE
DEPARTMENT OF SECRETIVE JECT OF
STANDARDS THEY GET INTO THE
DESIGNER OF YOU. UNLESS IT'S
WRITTEN THAT LIKE THAT'S A GOOD
IDEA WHICH ARE PRACTICALLY
NOTHING IT'S GOOD IDEA. HOW
COULD THEY LITERALLY DO THAT HOW
COULD THE DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL
SERVICES. ACT LIKE A CITY AND
COME UP WITH THE RULES THAT IT
OFFERS CAN YOU DEVELOPMENT SO.
WITH THAT WE- I RESPECTFULLY
REQUEST. THE NEW VOTE ON THIS
MEASURE THANK YOU. THANK YOU
ANY. FOLKS AND THE ROOM WHICH
TO. OPPOSITION TO THE BILL
PLEASE ORGAN. IN POSITION. GOOD

MA'AM CHAIRMAN THANK EVERYBODY
FOR COMING ON THIS BILL TODAY I
WANT TO START AND THINGS CENTER
WIENER FIRST ON FOR YOUR
LEADERSHIP ON SB THIRTY FIVE-
THAT WAS MORE EARLIER IN YOUR
LEGISLATIVE TENURE HERE AND
DODD. AYE I WOULD- STATE THAT IT
PROBABLY GOT. A LOT OF THE
MOMENTUM GOING FOR THE WORK THAT
WE NEED TO DO AT THE STATE LEVEL
TO BE ABLE TO HELP. SUPPORT AN
EXPEDITE- HOUSING PRODUCTION IN
OUR STATE- AND ALL THE SAME
ISSUES THAT YOU WORK ON THROUGH
THAT BILL AND SORT OF LEARNING
SOME OF THOSE LESSONS AS WELL
PLANO'S HERE TO SB FOUR TWENTY
THREE. ARE CERTAINLY TO BE-
COMMENDED- I ALSO WANTED TO.
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I THINK. WHEN
WE DO THIS WORK AND YOU KNOW WE
THINK THAT IT'S GOING TO BE ABLE
TO PRODUCE THE INTENDED
OUTCOMES- SOMETIMES IT DOES
SOMETIMES YOU KNOW IT FALLS A
LITTLE BIT SHORT WE GOT TO GET
BACK ON THE HORSE TO KEEP
WORKING AGAIN. SB THIRTY FIVE
HAS BEEN A VERY STRONG SUCCESS
WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO MAKE A
DIFFERENCE I THINK INDEPENDENT
REVIEW HAS BEEN ABLE TO
DEMONSTRATE A MULTITUDE OF
PROJECTS THAT ARE QUALIFIED FOR
THIS AND SO IT'S HELPING. TO BE
ABLE TO SUPPORT THAT HOUSING
THAT WE DESPERATELY NEED ACROSS
ALL OF OUR COMMUNITY SAID THANK
YOU FOR THAT- I ALSO WANTED TO
ACKNOWLEDGE SOME OF THE WORK
THAT YOU'RE DOING ON YOU KNOW
THESE EVOLVING LABOR STANDARDS.
I THINK IT'S ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL
FOR THINKING ABOUT SOME OF OUR
HOUSING CONVERSATIONS THAT THAT
IS NOT CAST ASIDE BUT THAT'S
REALLY A FUNDAMENTAL PART. OF
THE WORK THAT WE ARE DOING- AND
MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE
APPROPRIATE SCHOOL IN TRAIN
RESOURCES- AND REQUIREMENTS ARE
BUILT IN- BUT- FUNDAMENTALLY
ABOVE ALL ELSE THAT WE ARE
MAINTAINING- REALLY RESPECTFUL-
COMPENSATION. OPPORTUNITIES THAT
WE'RE LOOKING ACROSS THE
MULTITUDE OF BENEFITS THAT
WORKERS DESERVE- AND IT WORKING
ACROSS ALL THOSE THAT ARE
INVOLVED IN THE HOUSING INDUSTRY
TO REALLY TRY TO UPLIFT. A LOT
OF THAT SO THANK YOU FOR- TRYING
TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT AS WELL-
THROUGH THIS BILL- I AM. I HAVE
CONCERNED ABOUT- DISPLACEMENT
ISSUES I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT
TO TALK ABOUT THAT MAYBE EVEN
SOME OF YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE
ABOUT SB THIRTY FIVE. HOW
DISPLACEMENT QUESTIONS MIGHT
HAVE BEEN RESOLVED THESE
PROJECTS ARE BEING- INVOLVED IN
OUR COMMUNITY. SURE ABSOLUTELY.
AND I JUST WANNA KNOW FOR THE
RECORD THAT THE AMENDMENTS. BY
THAT THE WESTERN CENTER- IS
REFERRING TO WHAT GOT THE BILL-
AND MAKE IT ON. IN OUR BASS. SO
I. I'M JUST A- PERSON I THINK
IT'S A- TO BE BLUNT- WE'RE ALL.
HAPPY TO WORK WITH ANY. BUT
THERE ARE A MEMBER WE GOT THE
BILL- INTER OF THE SPA. I THINK
WE NEED TO BE. CRYSTAL CLEAR.
WHAT DRIVES DISPLACEMENT. I'M
SORRY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OUR
DOORS CONSIDER. SHOT THANK YOU
NOW. I'M I WE NEED TO CHRIS
CLEAR WHAT DRIVES DISPLACEMENT.
IT IS OUR FAILURE TO BUILD NEW
HOMES THAT DRIVES DISPLACEMENT.
PERIOD THAT IS WHY. IT WAS
DRIVING DISPLACEMENT IS THAT THE
AVERAGE RENT IN PARTS OF THE
STATE. OR LIKE THREE THOUSAND
DOLLARS A MONTH THIRTY FIVE
HUNDRED DOLLARS A MONTH. BECAUSE
WE RANK FORTY NINE OUT OF FIFTY
STATES IN PER HOME PER CAPITA.
AND WHEN YOU EXPLODE HOUSING
COSTS BY CREATING A SHORTAGE.
BECAUSE WE'VE EMPOWERED
OPPONENTS TO STOP EVERYTHING.
THE WEALTHY PEOPLE TEND TO WIN.
BECAUSE THEY CAN PAY MORE. AND
LOWER INCOME PEOPLE GET PUSHED
OUT DOT IS WHAT IS DRIVING
DISPLACEMENT NOT BUILDING NEW
HOMES. BUILDING NEW HOMES
RELEASES THE PRESSURE AND BY THE
WAY. MOST OF THE HOMES BUILT
UNDER SB THIRTY FIVE OR BELOW
MARKET RATE HOMES- AND SO. NONE
IT IT. IT YOU KNOW I. I'LL
WANTED TO SAY THAT THIS SB
THIRTY FIVE WE PIONEERED BACK IN
TWENTY SEVENTEEN SB THIRTY FIVE.
THE STRONGEST ANTI DISPLACEMENT
PROTECTIONS IN STATE LAW WHICH
HAS BEEN REPLICATED AND SOME
OTHER BILLS. THAT YOU CAN NOT
USE SB THIRTY FIVE. TO DEMOLISH
HOMES WHERE ANYONE HAS LIVED
RECENTLY. SO THIS IS NOT THIS
BILL DOES NOT ALLOW SOMEONE TO
BUY AN APARTMENT BUILDING. ELLIS
OCT. THE TENANTS AND THEN
DEMOLISH IT TO BUILD A NEW SB
THIRTY FIVE PART OF THAT IS
EXCLUDED FROM THIS BILL I'M
PROUD OF THOSE ANTI DEMOLITION
RESTRICTIONS BECAUSE- THIS
HAPPENED TO ME STATE HOUSING LAW
NEEDS TO BE ABOUT ADDING NEW
HOMES. NOT REPLACING THE
EXISTING RESIDENTS SO I
FUNDAMENTALLY DISPUTE THAT THIS
BILL IN ANY WAY DR DISPLACEMENT
THAT IS FALSE THANK YOU FOR THAT
RESPONSE I'M SURE DOLLARS THERE
OF COURSE AND ANY FOR ALL THESE
REASONS AND THROUGH THE LENS OF
THE HOUSING COMMITTEE I AM VERY
HAPPY TO SUPPORT THIS BILL AND
WE'D BE ABLE TO AFFORD TODAY. I
ALSO SIT ON NATURAL RESOURCES
AND SO I'M SENSITIVE TO SOME OF
THE COAST LACK CONVERSATIONS
THERE ON ONE HAND- WE HAVE. I
THINK. WE'RE LOOKING AT
CONVERSATIONS STATEWIDE THAT ARE
IMPOSING MINISTERIAL REVIEW- AND
REDUCING DISCRETIONARY
THRESHOLDS I THINK THAT'S- AND
CAREFULLY A GOOD THING RIGHT NOW
SO WE'RE TRYING TO DO THROUGH
SOMEBODY'S BILLS IN. EVER DOING
IT OVER HERE FOR A LOCAL
JURISDICTION I THINK I ON ON ON
PAR I DID SOME OF THE VERY SAME
STANDARDS NEED TO APPLY AS WELL
FOR STATE LEVEL OR AND IN THIS
CASE- COASTAL DEVELOPMENT
PERMIT- DISCRETIONARY REVIEW.
WITHIN THE COAST LIKE WHICH OF
COURSE WAS MANDATED BY THE
VOTERS AND THE IMPORTANT WORK
THAT WE DO THERE- TO BE ABLE TO
PROTECT COASTAL RESOURCES THERE
ARE I THINK YOU KNOW SOME BONA
FIDE- IT REASON ANALYSIS THAT
THAT DEFINITELY NEED TO BE
THOUGHT THROUGH- AND SO'S. TO
ANY EXTENT THOSE PROTECTIONS ARE
REFLECTED HERE AS WE'RE THINKING
ABOUT WETLANDS SENSITIVE
RESOURCES- ISSUES THAT ARE
VULNERABLE TO SEA LEVEL RISE ALL
OF THOSE FACTORS AS WELL- AND
HOW ANYTHING MONEY- PRO EDIT.
AGAIN THE FUNDAMENTAL- IT- NEED
FOR THE BECAUSE LACK THE-
ABILITY TO ACCESS ARTICLES FOR
ALL CALIFORNIANS I'M
ACKNOWLEDGES WELL HAVING MORE
PEOPLE. LIVING CLOSER TO THE
COAST IS HELPFUL- AND TO THAT
THAT THAT THAT GOAL. AND SO-
THESE ARE THINGS I LOVE YOUR TO
SEE TO WERE WITH YOU IN YOUR
OFFICE ON AS A WE APPROACH THE
MEXICAN. YEAH AND I I'M HAVE
TAXI RISK. I TO BECAUSE WE
ABOUT. LIST I. SO IN A THIRTY
FIVE WE ALREADY EXAMPLE NUMBER
OF A- SENSITIVE AREAS INCLUDING
WETLANDS AND A NUMBER OF OTHERS
I GOT I'M NOT LOOKING TO FUEL
DEVELOPMENT. IN PLACES LIKE THAT
AND THAT'S BEEN THE- LAW FROM
THE BEGINNING. IN TWENTY
SEVENTEEN WE GIVE A BLANKET
EXEMPTIONS OF THE COASTAL ZONE-
THAT WAS I DON'T IT'S A MISTAKE
THAT WAS THE POLITICS OF THE
TIME. THAT IS OFFENSIVE. TO ME
TO HAVE A BLANKET EXEMPTION FOR
THE COURSES AND WE HAVE NOT
REPLICATED THAT. IN OTHER BILLS.
THAT IS NOT BEEN REPLICATED AND
THE REASON IS. THAT THE COSTA
ZONE. AND I LIVE IN A COASTAL
COMMUNITY. THE COASTAL ZONE
ISN'T MUCH WHITER AND WEALTHIER
THAN THE REST OF THE STATE AND
THE IDEA THAT WE WOULD BE.
APPLYING STATE HOUSING LAW
INLAND. TOLD HER COMMUNITIES ARE
LOWER INCOME AND MORE LIKELY TO
BE COMMUNITIES OF COLOR WELL WE
LITERALLY JUST EXEMPTS. WHITER
WEALTHIER COASTAL COMMUNITIES.
IS HIGHLY OFFENSIVE- TO ME. ON
THE COASTAL COMMISSION IS AS-
WE'VE BEEN TALKING TO THEM AND I
WANNA I'M WE ARE TRYING TO FIND
A COMPROMISE. ODD BECAUSE THIS
BILL TO BE COULD DOES NOT CHANGE
THE ZONING. SO IT ONLY APPLIES
IF IT'S ALREADY ZONE FOR EX
NUMBER OF UNITS ACCESS HI IT'S A
SAYS YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW YOUR OWN
RULES. SO THIS ISN'T A BUILDINGS
THERE WERE GONNA BUILD SOME
FIFTY FIFTY STORY BUILDING LIKE
RIGHT ON THE OCEAN THAT'S NOT
WHAT THE BILL DOES- AND SO WE'RE
WE ARE WE ARE. GOING TO PROPOSE
A COMPROMISE TO THE COASTAL
COMMISSION I HAVE TO SAY I'M
REALLY DISAPPOINTED. DOT THE
COASTAL COMMISSION OPPOSITION
IMMEDIATELY TRIGGER THAT LAUNDRY
LIST. OF ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS
JUST KNEE JERK OPPOSING I HAVE
NOT HEARD OF. A SINGLE ONE OF
THOSE ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS. ABER
HELPING US PASS ENVIRONMENTALLY
SUSTAINABLE. INFILL HOUSING
LEGISLATION. IF YOU CARE
PROTECTING ENVIRONMENTALLY
SENSITIVE PLACES THE NEW OF
RESPONSIBILITY AS AN
ENVIRONMENTAL ORGANIZATION TO
ADVOCATE. FOR DANCE HOUSING IN
PLACES LIKE SAN FRANCISCO WHERE
WERE DAY WHEN WE WERE FIGHTING
ON STEVENSON STREET. TO FILL UP
A PARKING LOT IN DOWNTOWN SAN
FRANCISCO WITH FIVE HUNDRED
HOMES. THAT'S HOW YOU PROTECT
ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE
HABITAT. BUT TOO MANY. PART TOO
MANY ENVIRONMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS
ARE A WALL WHEN IT COMES TO
CLIMATE FRIENDLY HOUSING
POLICIES I'M BEING SUPER BLUNT.
TO ORGANIZATIONS THAT I LOVE
ANIMALIZE WITH. AND SO WE WANT
TO WORK WITH THE ENVIRONMENTAL.
COMMUNITY SO THAT WE ARE NOT
PUTTING PRESSURE IN
ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREAS
I'M GONNA PROPOSE A COMPROMISE
TO THE COASTAL COMMISSION THAT I
THINK IS ROCK SOLID AND I'M
HAPPY TO WORK WITH YOU ONE OUT
OF SEVEN ARE VERY MUCH LIKE TO
WORK ON THAT AND I WOULD JUST
YOU KNOW I'M JUST PUSH BACK
GENTLY AND COLLEGE THAT. I'VE
BEEN EXCITED TO WORK WITH SOME
OF THOSE ENVIRONMENTAL
COMMUNITIES AND ORGANIZATIONS AS
WELL WE HAVE A BILL THAT WAS
HELD IN THIS COMMITTEE ASSEMBLY
BILL SEVENTY EIGHT WHICH
HOPEFULLY WILL RESURRECT AND
HAVE A BROADER CONVERSATION- IN
JANUARY- BECAUSE I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT TO SORT OF FIGURE OUT
IF THERE IS AN AREA OF
NEGOTIATION THAT. HAS MUTUAL
WINS BECAUSE CLIMATE POLICY IS
HOUSING POLICY HOUSING POLICY IS
CLIMATE POLICY WERE SEEN THAT
INTERSECTION OF THOSE TWO RIGHT
NOW I THINK THAT THERE'S A LOT
MORE- AREA FOR ALL OVER FOR A
LINE IT BUT ON THE COUSTEAU
ISSUE I JUST WANTED TO CONTINUE
TO WORK WITH YOU ON THAT. ON
BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO
DISRESPECT THAT- UNDERFUNDED
THAT IT IS THE COASTAL
COMMISSION DOES HAVE. VERY
RESPONSIBLE ROLES. OUGHT TO MAKE
SURE THAT- DEVELOPMENT IS
CONSISTENT WITH THE COASTAL ACT.
I THINK THAT. IT CAN ABSOLUTELY
BE CONSISTENT WITH THE
UNDERLYING ZONING IN A
RESIDENTIAL- CAPACITY THAT WE
NEED TO MANY OF THOSE
COMMUNITIES. AND I'M TO THE
EXTENT THAT WE CAN USE I THINK
EXISTING PROCESS SEES. IN A WAY
AND THAT IS A HARMONIOUS- WITH.
THEIR MISSION. AND ALL. ACHIEVE
THE- ON UP. THE WE SEE THROUGH
THIS BILL. I AM. IF SOMETHING. A
LITTLE MORE THOUGHT- AS THIS
GOES FORWARD AS HE IS ABLE TO
ACHIEVE AND I'M HAPPY TO MOVE
THE BILL TODAY. THANK YOU HAPPY
TO WORK WITH YOU. THANK YOU.
MISTER GABRIEL DID YOU. YEAH I
WAS JUST GONNA MOVE THE BILL BUT
SINCE I SOME OF OUR WORK IS DONE
THAT I WAS SECONDED- SENATOR I
APPRECIATE THE BLUNTNESS AND
DIRECTNESS. APPRECIATE THE TASK
THAT YOU BROUGHT TO THIS IS
EXTREMELY PART ABOUT. IT OR TO
THE COALITION BEHIND IT- AND
HOPE FOR GOING TO THAT TODAY.
THANK YOU MISS QUIRK-SILVA. AND
I'M GOING TO CONCUR WITH. YOUR
REMARKS ASSEMBLY MEMBER. WARD
THAT. OF COURSE WE ALL OF
CALIFORNIA'S COAST MANY OF US
VACATION THERE ARE MANY OF US
TAKE OUR FAMILIES THERE- IT'S
DEFINITELY WHAT BRINGS IN.
MILLIONS OF VISITORS. TO
CALIFORNIA BECAUSE SOME OF OUR
MOST ICONIC. BEACHES IN MY AREA
OF LAGUNA BEACH A CRYSTAL COVE.
WE WANT TO DO EVERYTHING WE CAN
TO RETAIN THOSE INCREDIBLE-
PLACES AND KEEP VISITORS COMING.
AT THAT SAME- IDEA WE ALSO WANT
TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY DOES
THEIR FAIR SHARE. AND MANY OF
THESE RESORT AREAS ON THE COAST
OF CALIFORNIA NEED TO HIRE
HOSPITALITY WORKERS TO WORK AND
IS IT THESE RESORT SO WHETHER
IT'S- THE SMALLEST. MOTEL OR THE
LARGEST RESORT AREA THEY ARE
HIRING IN FACT PEOPLE WHO ARE
WORKING ON A SOMETIMES MINIMUM
WAGE- TO DO THESE JOBS AND THESE
PEOPLE HAVE TO DRIVE MANY TIMES
AN HOUR OR MORE. BECAUSE WE KNOW
THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE
TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS TO GET
INTO THESE RESORT AREAS SO WE
CERTAINLY EXEMPTING A WIDE AREA
OF OUR COAST. BECAUSE IT'S THE
COAST IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AND WE
WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MOVE OUT OF
THIS HOUSING CRISIS UNLESS
EVERYBODY DOES THEIR FAIR SHARE
AND WE DO NOT EXEMPT WIDE AREAS
OF THE STATE SO WHETHER IT'S A
HABITAT FOR A MOUNTAINS OWN WE
NEED TO STOP THIS EVERYBODY
NEEDS TO DO THEIR FAIR SHARE.
AND WE CERTAINLY NEED TO LOOK AT
THE EMPLOYEES GOING INTO THE
RESORT AREAS AND LOOK AT HOW
THEY'RE GETTING THERE AND WHAT
IS THEIR QUALITY LEVINE AS THEY
CLEAN THOSE HOTELS- BUT WITH
THAT I SUPPORT THIS BILL THANK
YOU. THANK YOU. MISTER PATTERSON
. THANK YOU SENATOR. JUST TO
POINT OUT I'M GONNA START WITH
THEM. IN SOME OF THE CONCERNS I
THINK WE'VE TALKED ABOUT AND
THEN I'LL GO OVER SOME OTHER
COMMENTS THAT I HAVE BUT- I'M-
YOU KNOW THERE ARE SOME I WROTE.
RECENTLY WAS ON A CITY COUNCIL.
IN ROCKLIN CLOSE TO HERE AND-
YOU KNOW OF MY TIME ON THE CITY
COUNCIL WE NEVER DENIED. A
PROJECT AND BUT BECAUSE OF THE
ECONOMICS IN THE IN THE WAY THAT
THE CITY IS THAT BUILT OUT IT'S
COMPLETELY SURROUNDED BY OTHER
JURISDICTIONS THAT ARE ABLE TO
CONTINUE TO. SORT OF A SPRAWL
OUT- I AM A LITTLE CONCERNED
THAT ROCKLAND'S GONNA HAVE AN
ISSUE DESPITE ITS WILLINGNESS TO
BUILD HOUSING IN CITIES LIKE
THAT. BECAUSE IT MEETING THE
ARENA GOALS BECAUSE IT'S GOING
TO BE ANTI COMPETITIVE TO DO A
DEVELOPMENT THERE RATHER THAN A
NEARBY ADJACENT CITY THAT CAN
CONTINUE TO SORT OF. BUILD OUT
INTO GREEN SPACE FOR EXAMPLE- SO
I DO HAVE THAT WE CAN TALK MORE
ABOUT THAT. YOU KNOW THIS KIND
OF GOES THROUGH THE PROCESS. AS
I THINK THEY ARE CITIES THAT DO
YOU HAVE A LEGITIMATELY GOOD
FAITH DESIRE TO BUILD HOUSING.
YOU KNOW SOMETIMES ECONOMIC
CONDITIONS OR WHATEVER YOU NOW
BECAUSE IT. THE OTHER THING IS I
DID HAVE A MEETING ON FRIDAY OR
MAYBE A COUPLE WEEKS AGO WITH
THE HOUSING ADVISORY COMMITTEE
THAT I HAVE IN MY DISTRICT
INCLUDES DEVELOPERS INCLUDES.
YOU KNOW HOME BUILDERS IN IT
ALSO INCLUDES- PROPERTY OWNERS
ENTITLEMENT PEOPLE AND ALSO
LABOR AS WELL- AND I THINK. IT I
THINK THERE MIGHT BE SOME
LIMITED. UTILITY IN SOME OF THE
SUBURBAN AREAS WHICH- YOU KNOW-
JUST BASED ON THEIR FEEDBACK
ANYWAYS BECAUSE THE COSTS THAT
THAT COULD POTENTIALLY. BE ADDED
BUT I KNOW THAT THAT WAS THAT
CAN YOU KNOW. YOU'VE BEEN
WALKING A VERY- FINE LINE HERE
AND TRYING TO GET A RESOLUTION
TO THIS AND I THINK YOU KNOW
HAVING SOME OF THE LABOR
STANDARDS IN HERE IS IMPORTANT-
I WILL SAID. GOING ON SALE WHEN
I THINK POSITIVE ABOUT THIS BILL
IS. THIS IS A POSITIVE COMMENT
ABOUT A GROUP BUT I AM
PARTICULARLY BOTHERED BY THE
OPPOSITION FROM THE COASTAL
COMMISSION. I DID READ THEIR
LETTER- YOU KNOW I MEAN WE HAVE
COMMUNITIES ALL OVER THE WORLD
THAT ARE BUILDING RIGHT UP TO
THE COAST. INS AND YOU KNOW WE
WANT TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
BUT WHEN THEY'RE STOPPING LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS IS ACTUALLY THE
STATE COMING IN A STATE AGENCY
COMING IN AND TELLING THE LOCAL
JURISDICTION ON THE COAST. THAT
THEY CAN'T DO EIGHTY USE WITHOUT
PARKING REQUIREMENTS BECAUSE-
YOU KNOW WE GOT TO HAVE ACCESS
TO THE BEACH OR WHATNOT YOU KNOW
AND SO IT ACTUALLY IMPEDED A
CITY'S ABILITY TO MEET THEIR
RENO OBLIGATIONS. THEY WERE
EXERTING DOING EVERYTHING THEY
NEEDED TO DO TO MEET THEIR READ
OBLIGATIONS IN THE COASTAL
COMMISSION CAME IN. AND OPPOSE
THAT. AND I THINK THAT THAT'S
PROBLEMATIC BECAUSE WHERE'D ALL
THE PEOPLE WHO CAME IN HERE
TODAY TO TESTIFY IN SUPPORT. OF
THIS MEASURE- YOU KNOW I DON'T
REALLY THINK THAT. YOU KNOW THE
THOUGHT OF SORT OF. PROTECTING
COASTAL A LEAD OVER PEOPLE THAT
WORKING IN THE COMMUNITIES.
DRIVES ME CRAZY. AND I THINK
THEY NEED TO BE MUCH MORE
REALISTIC WITH THEIR- OPPOSITION
TO EVEN CITY LEVEL PROJECTS THAT
ARE TRYING TO COMPLY WITH STATE
LAW AND MAKING IT MORE DIFFICULT
FOR THOSE CITIES TO COMPLY AND
ACTUALLY EXERT LOCAL CONTROL WE
WANT THAT WE WANT CITIES TO DO
THE RIGHT THING- AND- ANOTHER
THING THAT. THAT JUST CAME UP
YESTERDAY OBVIOUSLY AS AN ICE I
THINK. WHERE I KIND OF AS A
FORMER CITY COUNCIL MEMBER
MYSELF AGAIN A LITTLE BIT
FRUSTRATED WITH THAT LOCAL
CONTROL. ARGUMENT IN AND I DO
WANT TO REMARK BY THE WAY. STATE
AGENCIES RIGHT NOW CAN DO THEIR
OWN ENTITLEMENTS ON PROJECTS- SO
THIS BILL DOESN'T NECESSARILY
CHANGE AND IN FACT IN MY CITY WE
HAVE A STATE AGENCY THAT HAS
MADE IT VERY CLEAR THEY'RE DOING
THEIR OWN ENTITLEMENTS ON ON
THEIR PROJECT- BUT I DO GET. WHO
ANOTHER EXAMPLE JUST YESTERDAY
IT'S LIKE WE'RE GIFTED THESE
EXAMPLES YOU NOW WE HAVE A CITY
THAT ACTUALLY WENT THROUGH THE
ENTIRE ENTITLEMENT PROCESS FOR
PROJECT. THAT CITY APPROVED IT
THE STAFF THE- PLANNING
COMMISSION APPROVED IT AND THEN
THE CITY COUNCIL. OR BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS OPPOSED IT BECAUSE
OF. YOU KNOW SHADE ON A
RECREATIONAL AREA IN ALLEGED.
SAN FRANCISCO WELL I YOU KNOW
I'D OUT TRYING NOT TO I ALWAYS
ALLOW THE PEOPLE THEY WANT TO
NAME THAT NAME IF THEY CAN BUT-
BUT- I AT THE OF PRIOR EXAMPLE
IS ANOTHER. CITY THAT WAS
SOMEBODY ON THIS COMMITTEE I
DON'T WANT TO NAME THAT ONE
EITHER- BUT YEAH WHAT SAN
FRANCISCO AND I THINK YOU KNOW
PUT IN TEN UNITS AND- YOU KNOW
THE ELECTED THEMSELVES LET DOWN
THE PROCESS. AND I THINK THAT
THAT'S PROBLEMATIC AND THAT'S
WHY WE KEEP HAVING LEGISLATION
LIKE THIS BECAUSE AS ELECTED
OFFICIALS. THE THEY'RE LETTING
DOWN THE PROCESS AND I'M NOT
SAYING JUST SAN FRANCISCO IT'S A
LOT OF OTHER CITIES THAT ARE
DOING THAT. AND I WOULD LIKE
CITIES THAT HAVE TAKE THEIR
RESPONSIBILITY TAKE THESE THINGS
SERIOUSLY. AND SO THAT WAY WE
DON'T NEED ANYMORE LEGISLATION
LIKE THIS- SO BOAT WITH ALL OF
THAT SAID I SUPPORT THIS
LEGISLATION BECAUSE FRANKLY. I'M
IT YOU KNOW IF SOMETHING IS AN
INFILL PROJECT IN IT AND IT FITS
THE WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO THE
STATE WHAT THE STATE SENATE'S
PUBLIC POLICY TO DO. THAN YOU
KNOW. I'M TELLING YOU I DON'T
WANT TO SIT IN A CITY COUNCIL
MEETING FOR SIX HOURS. WITH
PEOPLE TELLING ME THAT YOU KNOW
THAT I SHOULD APPROVE A PROJECT
AND I HAVE TO APPROVE IT ANYWAYS
RIGHT BECAUSE VARIOUS EXISTING
STATE LAWS ALREADY AND THAT
ACTUALLY KIND OF CUTS. THAT THAT
PART OF. A THE ABILITY FOR
PEOPLE TO GET INVOLVED IN THE
ZONING PROCESS FROM THE GET GO
AND I ENCOURAGE EVERYBODY TO DO
THAT WHEN CITIES ARE GOING
THROUGH THE REHAB PROCESS SO
THEY CAN OPINE. RIGHT FROM THE
GET GO. BUT ANYWAYS WITH THAT
I'M HAPPY TO SUPPORT THIS
MEASURE APPRECIATE THE WORK
YOU'RE DOING ON ON THIS AREA.
I'M ALWAYS SUSPECTS OF LOSING
LOCAL CONTROL BUT I'M- YOU KNOW
I THINK IT'S BEEN ABUSE
UNFORTUNATELY IN A LOT OF
CIRCUMSTANCES. HI I WOULD JUST
SAY- I ISSUED A STATEMENT THIS
MORNING ARE CONDEMNING THE SAN
FRANCISCO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
DECISION YESTERDAY. WHICH WAS
ATROCIOUS. AND I SEE AN EXAMPLE
OF AND IT'S NOT JUST SAN
FRANCISCO- IT'S- ONE OF CITY
DOES THAT JUST ARE COMPLETELY
FRIVOLOUS APPLICATION OF SEE
WHAT. THAT'S WHY WE NEED LAWS
LIKE THIS SO I APPRECIATE THAT.
THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTION
FROM COMMITTEE MEMBERS. OKAY OF
MISTER WIENER- ACTUALLY I HAD A
COUPLE QUESTIONS FOR YOU AND
THANK YOU MR PATTERSON BRING UP
THE- SAN FRANCISCO EXAMPLE I TO
READ THE- SAN FRANCISCO HOLDS
PROJECT THAT WOULD REPLACE
SINGLE FAMILY HOUSE AND ALL HILL
WITH TEN HOMES TEN TOWNHOMES- I
THINK THEY CITED SHADOWS OR
SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT- AND
IT'S INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING-
THAT THAT'S ONE OF MANY EXAMPLES
OF THIS I THINK THE EXACT.
REASON WHY WE NEED THIS BILL TO
PASS- AND OTHERS LIKE THIS TO.
ENSURE THAT- OUR CITIES DO IT
BUT WE NEED TO DO WHICH IS BUILD
HOUSING ALL OF OUR COMMUNITIES
NEED THAT. I'M SORRY I SHARE
THAT CONCERN AND I APPRECIATE
THE COMMENTS FROM MY COLLEAGUES-
ONE OF THE THINGS HAS BEEN
FLAGGED FOR ME BY THE COMMITTEE
IS THE FACT THAT THE REPORTING
PERIODS ONLY. EVERY FOUR YEARS-
AND SO WE'RE NOT. REALLY
ENGAGING KIND OF REGULARLY AND
THE IMPLEMENTATION IS LONGER
THAN I THINK WE'D HOPED. SO I
WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE URGENCY
AROUND THAT- AND I'M WONDERING
IF YOU WOULD WORK WITH ME MOVING
FORWARD TO CREATE URGENCY AND
TAKE A LOOK AT THAT AND MAYBE
POTENTIALLY COME UP WITH SOME
OTHER MOMENTS MOVING FORWARD. WE
ARE HAPPY TO COMMIT TO WORK WITH
THE COMMITTEE ON THOSE ISSUES
OKAY APPRECIATE THAT- AND THEN
ONE OTHER JUST CLARIFYING
QUESTION. I KNOW WE DISCUSSED-
YOU'D MENTIONED- THE WE HAD THE
CONVERSATION OF THE COASTAL
COMMISSION AND ALSO THE
ACCOMPANYING. A ENVIRONMENTAL
COMMUNITY THAT- STERN OPPOSITION
TO THE BILL. DID YOU SAY THAT A
LOT OF THOSE MIGRANTS HAVEN'T
EVEN REACHED OUT TO YOU ABOUT
THE BILL. YES SO ANY I JUST WANT
TO STRESS AGAIN YOU KNOW THE IT
IS THE LIST OF USERS SOME OF THE
MOST LIKE. ORGANIZATIONS THAT I
TRULY LOVE AND ADMIRE AND SINCE
IT WAS SO DISAPPOINTED. WHEN HE
WANTED TO SORT OF PILED ON AFTER
THE COASTAL COMMISSION VOTED TO
OPPOSE THE BILL- AND- NO WE HAVE
NOT HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH THOSE
OR- ORGANIZATIONS I THINK THE
FIRST WEEK- WHY. RIGHT YEAH IT
WAS IT THE WAS THE SIMILAR
COMMENTS WE CAN. THE IN A- OF IT
HAVE NOT COME TO A- OTHER. JUST
THAT THERE. WERE HAPPY ENGAGE
WITH THEM LIKE I SAID. I'M NOT I
HAVE. INTO IN LIKE. YOU KNOW
MEGO DEVELOP RIGHT AWAY THE
COAST AYE AYE TOTALLY. THAT WE
NEED. CO IS REALLY REALLY REALLY
IMPORTANT. AND THAT'S WHY WE ARE
GOING TO PROPOSE. A COMPROMISE
TO THE COASTAL COMMISSION THAT
WE THINK ADDRESSES A LOT OF
THEIR CONCERNS- PARTICULARLY
AROUND SEA LEVEL RISE. WE DON'T
WANT HOUSING BUILT ON UNSTABLE
GLOSS OVER I MEAN THAT THAT
DOESN'T MAKE SENSE FOR ANYONE.
SO WE'RE GONNA PROPOSE I THINK
IT'S- COMPROMISED. MY GOAL IS TO
COME TO A RESOLUTION. I WITH THE
COASTAL COMMISSION. I DO WANT TO
EXPRESS FIRST. THAT THEY MIGHT
COMMUNITIES NOT COME TO THE
TABLE IN THIS- AND- YOU KNOW WE
ALL HAVE TO BE PART OF THE
SOLUTION THAT INCLUDES
ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNITY- AND SO
I WELCOME THEM TO THE TO THE TO
THE TABLE I'M HAPPY TO WORK WITH
THEM I KNOW YOU ARE AS WELL I
ALSO WANT TO RECOGNIZE IT-
MISTER WARD IS. WORKING ON
BUILDING A COALITION AS WELL SO
I APPRECIATE YOUR GOOD WORK IN
THAT SPACE WANT TO BRING MORE
THAN MY MIDDLE COMMUNITY INTO
THE SOLUTION BECAUSE- THE WAY
THAT WE ARE GOING TO ACTUALLY.
SOLVE OUR HOUSING. PROBLEM IS TO
BUILD MORE HOUSING PARTICULARLY
IN INFILL RIGHT AND THAT'S THE
MOST ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
WAY WE CAN DO THAT AND SO WE
NEED THEM IN THIS FIGHT. WE NEED
TO ACTORS WHO ARE NOT JUST
SAYING NO TO EVERYTHING AS I'VE
SAID BEFORE THE DAYS OF SAYING
NO ARE GONE- AND SO I WELCOME
THOSE THAT WANT TO GET ON THE
TRAIN TO LEAVE TOWARD SOLUTIONS
TO GET ON THE TRAIN WITH US- AND
PARTNER WITH US SO THAT WE CAN-
SOLVE THIS PROBLEM TOGETHER- I
WILL LET YOU CLOSE THAT HAVE A
COUPLE. FOLLOWING WORDS AS WELL.
RIGHT A GREAT I THINK I THINK WE
ARE COLLECTIVELY CLOSED AND SO I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE
THANK YOU- I JUST WANT TO-
REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR WORK
SENATOR WIENER IN THIS SPACE I
KNOW THIS IS BEEN A LONG JOURNEY
FOR YOU AND IT'S BEEN- GREAT
PARTNERING WITH YOU. AND I KNOW
THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF
CONVERSATION ON THIS AND A LOT
OF STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT ACROSS
THE BOARD. AND I WELCOME THE
OPPOSITION IN CONVERSATION I
THINK THAT'S HOW WE CREATE
BETTER POLICY. AND I APPRECIATE-
THE ADVOCATES AND THE- UNIONS
AND OTHERS WHO HAVE FOUGHT TO
GET TO SOLUTION HERE- AND I'M
VERY HAPPY TO SUPPORT THIS BILL
AN HONOR TO BE A PRINCIPAL CO
AUTHOR TODAY AND WITHOUT THE
MOTIONS TO PASS AS AMENDED
ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE ON NATURAL
RESOURCES. WICKS I WICKS HI
PATTERSON. HARRISON I. CARILLO
KOREA HI. GABRIEL GIVE ME. I
COLOR I WORKS. SO CENTER. NO WAR
. WAR HI. IT IS SIX TO ONE THAT
BILLS OUT ROLE THAT FOLKS. OUT
ON. THANK YOU. VERY THANK YOU.
OKAY THAT WAS ONE OF THE-
SENATOR WIENER. IS A REAL LITTLE
- WOULD YOU LIKE TO. PRESENT AS
BEFORE AXE OR YES OKAY. THANK
YOU. OKAY I. I THANK YOU MADAM
CHAIR COLLEAGUES- PRESENTING
SENATE BILL FOR- AND I FIRST
WANT TO THANK THE COMMITTEE FOR
WORKING WITH US AND I'M HAPPY TO
ACCEPT THEIR COMMITTEE
AMENDMENTS OUTLINED IN THE
ANALYSIS- SB FOUR- WITH. THIS IS
ACTUALLY THE THIRD TIME THAT
WE'RE TAKING A RUN AT THIS
IMPORTANT BILL AND HOPEFULLY
THREE TIMES AS IT IS A CHARM-
THIS WILL ALLOW RELIGIOUS
INSTITUTIONS AND NONPROFIT
COLLEGES. OUGHT TO UTILIZE
ACCESS LAND THAT THEY OWN- TO
DEVELOP AFFORDABLE HOUSING- IN
TERMS AND ALLOW IT UNDER ZONING
AND- PROVIDING MINISTERIAL
EXPEDITED APPROVAL- THIS- WE
KNOW THAT WE HAVE MANY
PARTICULAR CHURCHES SYNAGOGUES
MOSQUES. ARE COLLEGES THAT WANT
THAT HAVE A LOT OF LANDS AND
HAVE MORE LAND THAN THEY NEEDED
TO PICK UP A CHURCH THAT HAS A
PARKING LOT THAT'S THREE TIMES
THE SIZE OF WHAT THEY NEED- AND
THEY WANT TO BUILD HOUSING
THAT'S AFFORDABLE BELOW MARKET
RATE. AS PART OF THEIR MISSION
AND SO FORTH- BUT BECAUSE OF
LOCAL RESTRICTIONS THEY'RE
SIMPLY UNABLE TO DO SO AND WE
HEAR OVER AND OVER AGAIN
PARTICULARLY FROM CHURCHES AND
SYNAGOGUES- OTHER INSTITUTIONS
UP AND DOWN THE STATE THAT THEY
REALLY WANT TO DO THIS- BUT IT'S
NOT WORTH IT FOR THEM TO GO
THROUGH THE PROCESS TO CHANGE
THE ZONING GO THROUGH THE
APPROVAL. AND SO THEY GIVE UP
ODDS THIS BILL WILL GIVE THEM A
PATH. I TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT-
THIS BILL I'VE WILL BE GAMES FOR
AFFORDABLE. ABU ARE BASED ON
ANALYSES WE'VE SEEN STATEWIDE
THIS WILL OPEN UP TENS OF
THOUSANDS TENS AND TENS OF
THOUSANDS OF ACRES OF THE OF
POTENTIAL LAND FOR AFFORDABLE
HOUSING AND IT WILL EFFECTIVELY
BE DEDICATED. FOR BELOW MARKET
RATE OF DEVELOPMENT- SO THAT ONE
OF THE CHALLENGES THAT
AFFORDABLE HOUSING BUILDERS
HAVE. IS HAVING TO COMPETE WITH
MARKET RATE DEVELOPERS FOR LAND.
BOB THIS WATER ACTIVELY RELEASE
SOME OF THAT TENSION- I AM
REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THIS BILL-
THE- MASSIVE FAITH BASED ON
HOUSING COALITION BEHIND THE
BILL IS. INCREDIBLY INSPIRING I
HAVE AUTHORED FEW BILLS WHERE I
GET MORE SAYS ENERGETIC
EXCITEMENT ARE FROM PEOPLE WHO
ARE JUST SO HAPPY THAT IT'S
HAPPENING. I AM PROUD TO BE
OFFERING IT- AND I RESPECTFULLY
ASK YOUR AYE VOTE. WITH ME TODAY
ARE ABRAM DÍAS THE POLICY
DIRECTOR DIRECTOR WITH THE
NONPROFIT HOUSING ASSOCIATION OF
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. AND
REGIONAL BANKS THE DIRECTOR OF
THE LUTHERAN OFFICE OF PUBLIC
POLICY. GREAT THANK YOU WE HAVE
A TWO MINUTES EACH THANK YOU
ABSOLUTELY. I THANK YOU MADAM
CHAIR MASTER VICE CHAIR AND
COMMITTEE MEMBERS MY NAME IS A
FROM THE S. AND SERVICE POLICY
DIRECTOR FOR AND P. H. I WOULD
SAY I'M SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF
ALL THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
BUILDERS ACROSS THE STATE. I'VE
PRESENTED ON NUMEROUS HOUSING
BILLS IN THIS COMMITTEE AND
TYPICALLY I'D START BY RATTLING
OFF A SET OF VERY SIMILAR
STATISTICS. I WOULD ENUMERATE
HOW MANY AFFORDABLE HOUSING
UNITS ARE C. NEEDS I WOULD TALK
ABOUT EXPORTING HOMELESS
POPULATION. OUT EXEMPLIFY HOW
HARD IT IS TO GO TO FLORIDA
HOUSING. BUT TODAY I DON'T THINK
WE NEED A REPETITION OF THE DATA
THAT WE'RE ALL FAMILIAR WITH.
OUR HOUSING CRISIS IS COVERED
ENDLESSLY BY THE MEDIA RESEARCH
CONTINUOUSLY BY HIGHER EDUCATION
INSTITUTIONS AND LIVED EVERY DAY
BY ALL CALIFORNIANS. INSTEAD
I'LL PRESENT THE STORY OF THE
HUMAN IMPACT A SINGLE UNIT OF
AFFORDABLE HOUSING HAD FOR ONE
OF OUR RESIDENTS. I HOPE FOLKS
WHO WORRY ABOUT THESE HOUSING
BILLS ARE LISTENING. THIS
RESIDENTS NAME IS BRENDA SHE'S A
SINGLE MOM WITH FORTUNE LIVING
IN. CALIFORNIA SHE HAD TO STAY
FAMILY LIFE UNTIL SHE- OF
DIVORCE WITH HER INNER FOR. WERE
A HOME WITH A SOURCE OF INCOME.
THEY'RE FORCED TO MOVE IN WITH
HER PARENTS BUT SEVEN PEOPLE AND
A ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT WAS
CRAMPED AND A STRAIN ON
EVERYBODY. DESPITE SECURING A
JOB AT A LOCAL HOSPITAL SHE
COULD NOT AFFORD THE TYPICAL
MARKET RENTS IN THE SOUTH BAY.
BUT SHE WAS PERSISTENT AND
HOPEFUL AS ANY MOTHER PARENT
WOULD BE. AND SHE APPLIED FOR
AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNIT WITH MID
PENN HOUSING IN FREMONT. I WAS
LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET IT. AND NOW
HER CHILDREN HAVE A SAFE AND
STABLE HOUSE TO GROW UP IN WITH
ONSITE SERVICES THAT ARE PREPARE
TEENAGERS FOR COLLEGE. AND
BRENDA WAS ABLE TO STAR
INCOMPLETE JOB TRAINING AND
SHE'S COMPLETED A CULINARY
SCHOOL. AND EARNED HER PASTRY
CHEF CREDENTIALS. THIS BILL IN
FRONT OF US SENATE BILL FOUR HAS
THE POTENTIAL TO BUILD OVER
THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND
AFFORDABLE HOMES. BY PASSING
THIS BILL WE CAN UP WITH
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF
BRENDA'S ACROSS THE STATE. SAID
TODAY ON BEHALF OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING BUILDERS LABOR GROUPS
EQUITY GROUPS AND HUNDREDS OF
SUPPORT OF FAITH ORGANIZATIONS
WHO NEED US. I NEED YOU TO HELP
THEM CARE FOR CALIFORNIA'S MOST
VULNERABLE. WE'RE PROUD TO
SUPPORT SENATE BILL FOUR AND WE
ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT AS WELL.
GOOD MORNING MADAM CHAIR

OF FAITH WHO FEEL CALLED BY OUR
GUIDE TO SERVE OUR NEIGHBORS IN
NEED. OR SOMETIME CONGREGATIONS.
INDIVIDUALS SOCIAL AGENCIES AND
SYNODS OF THE EVANGELICAL
LUTHERAN CHURCH AND AMERICA HAVE
CALLED ATTENTION TO THE PLIGHT
OF THE HOMELESS OF HOMELESS
PEOPLE. MANY MANY MEMBERS HAVE
WORKED WITH OTHER CHURCHES AND
GROUPS TO PROVIDE FOOD. SHELTER
AND CARE TO STUDY THE SOCIAL
CAUSES OF HOMELESSNESS AND TO
ADVOCATE FOR POLICIES THAT
RESPOND TO THE HOUSING CRISIS.
PEOPLE IN OUR CONGREGATIONS WHO
ARE HOMELESS AND POTENTIALLY
HOMELESS REMIND US OF THE
URGENCY OF THE SITUATION. AND
SOME OF OUR CONGREGATIONS AND
INSTITUTIONS BLESSED WITH AN
ABUNDANCE OF LAND. HAVE

NEARLY TWO ACRES OF ITS LAND TO
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND WE'RE

YEARS FOR CLEARANCE. THEY BECAME
DISCOURAGED AND RATHER THAN WAIT
AND STRUGGLE WITH THEIR LOCAL
GOVERNMENT MOVED FORWARD WITH
OTHER MINISTRIES. AND IMMANUEL

BROKE GROUND ON AFFORDABLE
HOUSING PROJECT ON THEIR CAMPUS

RED TAPE. THAT PROJECT WILL
CREATE NEW AFFORDABLE HOMES FOR
RESIDENTS REFERRED DIRECTLY BY
THE COUNTY OF SANTA CLARA AND
ERA AN AREA OF TREMENDOUS NEED.

FRUSTRATING JOURNEY FOR THAT

ARE OVER THIRTY EIGHT THOUSAND
ACRES OF LAND THAT ARE USED FOR

GREAT WITH THAT WILL BRING IT
BACK NOW- PRIMARY WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION- WHICH IS IN
OPPOSITION. YOU CAN HEAR. GORDON
CHAIR MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE
MY NAME IS JOHN TO PROVE I'M
WITH THE CALIFORNIA VARMINTS
WHICH ALLY OR SAY HOW- SAY HAVE
RESPECTFULLY OPPOSE SB FOREIGN
IT IS AMENDED TO INCLUDE.
JUSTICE SAFEGUARDS ACT WILL
PUBLIC PROCESS REQUIREMENTS THIS
BILL WILL EXPAND CURRENT LAW TO
STREAMLINE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
WITHOUT SUFFICIENT PROTECTIONS
TO SAFEGUARD PUBLIC HEALTH IN
DISPLACEMENT ESPECIALLY FOR
RESIDENTS TO DISPENSE
COMMUNITIES. SO WE'VE ACTUALLY
APPRECIATE OUR CONVERSATION WITH
THE AUTHOR OF OFFICE AND THE
BILL'S SPONSORS TO ADDRESS OUR
CONCERNS ARE AND OUR ALLIANCE
MEMBERS AGREE THAT AND FORMER
HOUSING IS KEY- FOR THE MILLIONS
FOLKS IN CALIFORNIA AND
APPRECIATE THE SERIOUSNESS OF
THE AUTHOR AND THE COMMITTEE HAS
DONE. TO TAKE ON THIS CHALLENGE
AND AT THE SAME TIME IT'S
CRITICAL THAT THE AFFORDABLE
HOUSING IS DEVELOPED HEALTHY AND
SAFE- WITHOUT COMMITTEE
RESIDENTS VALUABLE INPUT AND
KNOWLEDGE OF THE LOCAL AREA FOR
HOUSING CAN WILL BE APPROVED IN
AREAS WITH HIGHER LEVELS OF
POLLUTION PERPETUATE THE CYCLE
OF ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE.
THEREFORE WE RECOMMEND THE BILL
BE APPROVED TO REQUIRE AT LEAST
ONE COMMITTEE MEETING OR HEARING
AND REQUIRE THE RECALL THE
NOTICE OF THIS COMMITTEE MAY BE
TRANSLATED THE LOCAL. SPOKEN
LANGUAGES FOR NEARBY RESIDENTS
WE'RE ALSO CONCERNED THAT THE S.
BEFORE DOES NOT ENSURE THE
SUFFICIENT SEPARATION BETWEEN
HOUSING PROJECTS. AND
POTENTIALLY POLLUTING USES. LIKE
IN THE IN ED INTO FACILITIES OR
AND GAS DRILLING RIGS FREEWAYS
AND DRY CLEANERS WHICH CAN LEAD
TO ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS SUCH
AS REFEREE PROBLEMS AND
SOMETIMES CANCER. SO WE
RECOMMEND THE BILL TO REQUIRED
DISTANCES BETWEEN HOUSING
HARMFUL LAND USES TO PROTECT
HEALTHY HUMAN HEALTH FROM AIR
WATER AND SOIL POLLUTION. IN
LOSS AND AS AN EXAMPLE IN LOS
ANGELES THE ARCHDIOCESE OF L. A.
AS LEASED LAND TO OIL COMPANIES
LIKE ALLEN CO DRILL CITING
UNIVERSITY PARK BECAUSE HE'S
THINKING HARM TO LOW INCOME
COMMUNITY CALLER. LIVING IN
CLOSE PROXIMITY TO RESIDENTIAL
AREAS. OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
MULTI FAMILY HOUSING AND SCHOOLS
RESULTS IN A WIDE RANGE OF
HEALTH ISSUES SUCH AS ASTHMA
CANCER. HEADACHES AND VOTERS AND
SO IT'S FOR THESE REASONS WE
RESPECTFULLY UP WITH
RESPECTFULLY OPPOSE AS BEFORE
AND URGE THE AUTHOR TO CONSIDER.
THEIR OPINIONS AND SOLUTIONS
THAT WILL NOT SIGNIFICANTLY
IMPACT CURRENT. AND FUTURE
RESIDENTS HEALTH THANK YOU THANK
YOU. ANY ADDITIONAL FOLKS WISH
TO EXPRESS OPPOSITION. NAME
ORGANIZATION POSITION PLEASE.
GOOD MORNING CAL ROSS ABOUT THE

SURE BY WESTERN CENTER ON LAW
AND POVERTY AND THE CALIFORNIA
RURAL LEGAL ASSISTANCE
FOUNDATION THANK YOU. THANK YOU
MADAM CHAIR OF A TURKEY GUESS
BEEN MALES AND MARKSMAN BEHALF
OF THE CITY OF I FEEL AND
RESPECTFUL OPPOSITION. GOOD
MORNING I'M SURE MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE BALKANS OFFICE ON
BEHALF OF THE CITIES OF THOUSAND
OAKS CHINO. CENTER CARITA A.
RIVER VALLEY ON RESPECTFUL
OPPOSITION. GOOD MORNING I WAS
GETTING A SCRIPT ON ON BEHALF OF
THE CITY OF BEVERLY HILLS AND
RESPECTFUL OPPOSITION THANK YOU.
THANK YOU WILL BRING IT BACK TO
COMMITTEE. MISTER KALRA. THANK
YOU THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR THANK
YOU ARE CENTER FOR BRING THIS
FORWARD. YOU KNOW I I'VE- ALWAYS
FELT- REGARDLESS OF WHAT ONE'S
FAITH IS THAT- THAT- IF YOU IF.
OR WHETHER THEY HAVE ONE IN
THEIR OWN MORAL CODE- OUTSIDE OF
ANY ORGANIZED SPACE. THAT IN
ORDER TO. REALLY PUT THAT FAITH
IN ACTION THEY NEED TO STEP
OUTSIDE THE FOUR WALLS OF THE
STRUCTURE OF THE BUILDING. OF
THE OTHER HOUSE OF FAITH AND
ACTUALLY A LIFT UP- THE LEAST
AMONG US AND- IF THERE'S AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO BUILD
WALLS TO HOUSE THE WHOSE- THAT
THAT- THAT THAT NEED A SHELTER.
THAT'S I THINK IN AN IDEAL WAY
OF FOR PLACES OF WORSHIP AND
FOR. TO BE PART OF THE SOLUTION
I ALREADY KNOW AND I THINK THIS
IS THE CASE PROBABLY IN ALL OF
OUR JURISDICTIONS. OF THAT SO
MANY OF OUR CHURCHES SYNAGOGUES
MOSQUES YOU NAME IT ARE ARE
TAKING ON THE RESPONSIBILITY. OF
FEEDING AND IN SOME CASES EVEN
HOUSING TEMPORARILY OF THOSE
THAT ARE STRUGGLING. AND SO IF
WE CAN HELP FACILITATE THE SAME
PLACES OF WORSHIP TO ACTUALLY
BUILD. A 100% OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING- I THINK IT'S LONG
OVERDUE AND I THINK WILL. ALIGN
SO MANY OF OUR OF FACE WITH
THEIR WITH THEIR MISSION IN A
WAY. THAT DOESN'T HAVE TOO MANY
BARRIERS OR OBSTACLES MY
UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THIS WOULD
STILL REQUIRE THE LOCAL PROCESS-
TO GO TO BE FOLLOWED THROUGH IN
TERMS OF LOCAL PLANNING PROCESS-
AT IT IN TERMS OF- YOU KNOW THEY
WITHOUT THE BILL OF COURSE ABIDE
BY. THE NEW FRAMEWORK THAT THIS
LEGISLATION WOULD PROVIDE BUT IT
STILL WOULD NOT TAKE AWAY- A
LOCAL PROCESS TO ALLOW FOR
PUBLIC INPUT- WHICH WE KNOW IS
PROBABLY THE MOST RIGOROUS TYPE
OF PUBLIC OF INPUT THAT. WE GET
ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE WITH A CAME
FROM LOCAL JURISDICTIONS
CERTAINLY WOULD HERE- YOU
THROUGH ANY PROCESS EVEN IF IT
WAS KIND OF A STATE STRUCTURE
PROCESS- AND SO YOU KNOW I
CERTAINLY RESPECT- AND AS WAS
PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED PREVIOUS
BELL. OPPOSITION. AN
ORGANIZATION OF WORK VERY WITH
OVER THE BUT- I THINK THAT- AS-
GIVEN THE CALL. OF WHICH THE
LEGISLATION IS- WRITTEN A
REGARDING HAVING IN URBANIZED
AREAS. ARE NOT LOCATED BY MANY
SENSES SENSORY AREAS OR ADJACENT
TO INDUSTRIAL AREAS NOT TO NOT
TO ALLOW FOR THE DEMOLITION. OF
THE RENTAL HOUSING- OF CURRENTLY
EXISTING RENTAL HOUSING I THINK
THAT. THIS SUB LEGISLATION DOES
GO A LONG WAY IN TERMS OF
ENSURING THAT- THERE THERE'S-
SOME SENSITIVITY TO WHERE- WHERE
THESE TYPES OF DEVELOPMENTS-
COULD BE PLACED IN SO I'M
COMFORTABLE WITH THAT AND
CERTAINLY ENCOURAGE CONTINUE
DIALOGUE WITH WITH OPPOSITION
BUT I THINK THAT. SOME OF THE-
PROTECTIONS IN PLACE DO TAKE
INTO ACCOUNT CERTAIN SENSITIVE
RECEPTORS TAKE TAKES INTO
ACCOUNT INDUSTRIAL AREAS
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES- BUT THIS
ISSUE IS OF SUCH GREAT IMPORTANT
I THINK. TO IT YOUR POINT CENTER
ON THE PREVIOUS ITEM THAT YOU
MENTION INFILL HOUSING IS THE
MOST ENVIRONMENTALLY. SOUND TYPE
OF HOUSING THE WHICH ALLOW FOR
AS LONG AS THAT THERE IS SOME
ABILITY REPUBLICAN BUT AND I
THINK THAT IN THIS CASE THE
LOCAL PROCESS STILL HAVING TO BE
FOLLOWED THROUGH ON. THAT WILL
PROVIDE BUT I THINK A LOT OF
PUBLIC INPUT WHETHER FOLKS WANT
TO HEAR IT OR NOT- I THINK THAT
THAT WE'VE SEEN THAT LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS ESPECIALLY. TO THE
JURISDICTIONS AT OR ARE
CONCERNED OR HAVE OPPOSITION BUT
EVEN THOSE THAT DON'T- OR LARGER
CITIES THEY'RE STILL GOING TO
HAVE TO GO THROUGH A PROCESS
THAT ALLOWS FOR. PUBLIC OF
PLENTY OF PUBLIC INPUT- AND SO
FOR THOSE REASONS OBVIOUS
PORTABLE LIKE TO BE ADDED ON AS
A CO AUTHOR. AND. APPRECIATE IT
AND- SHE EIGHT CONTINUE TO WORK
ON THIS. THANK YOU IF I MAY YES
THIRD JUST THREW IT IS MINISTER
APPROVAL- THERE IS A- A LOCAL
DESIGN PROCESS. SO THERE ARE. IS
AN ABILITY- I ALSO JUST WANNA- I
. A LOT OF RESEARCH FOR SAID IN
THE- BECAME US- A DIFFERENT ID
WE DID AMEND THE- SOME OF. THE
THINGS THE REQUESTED WE A MAN.
INTO THE BILL. I NOT EVERYTHING
- THERE SOME- CHANGES THE
REQUESTED WE THINK ARE ARE
PROBLEMATIC BUT WERE YOU KNOW
WE'VE WE'VE DEFINITELY
DEFINITELY ZERO BUT- SERIOUSLY
RECEIVE OR- TOOK SERIOUS
CONSIDERATION OF THEIR- FEEDBACK
. AND BUT- THANKS FOR THE COLOR
OF THE EVEN WITH THE LOW DESIGN.
THAT COULD STILL GO A PLANNING.
OR CITY CAN FOR A- SO WHETHER
IT'S KIND OF THE- DUBS SIZE OR
IMPACTS ON THE LOCAL KING ABOUT
THE BATTLE GOES WITH. THAT- GOES
TO DESIGN AS WELL BECAUSE YOU
KNOW I'VE CERTAINLY SENT THROUGH
SAT THROUGH HEARINGS ARE MORE
MINISTERIAL IN TERMS OF- KIND OF
RESTRAINING THE ABILITY FOR
ABOUT WHAT A CITY CAN OR CAN'T
DO BUT- EVEN THAT PROCESS DOES
ALLOW FOR PUBLIC INPUT. IN TERMS
WHAT IMPACT IT CAN HAVE A IN THE
SURROUNDING COMMUNITY. YEAH I'M
SORRY I JUST ADDED THAT IS
COMPLETELY. WE HAVE UP WITHIN
THE BILL TO THE COMMUTER TO HAVE
SOMEONE AND EVEN THOUGH THERE
MAY BE SOME FOLKS HAVE CONCERNS
WE ALSO LIKE TO SEE A LOT OF
FOLKS HAVE SUPPORT FOR THE
PROJECT HERE SO IT'S A GOOD
OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THAT
COMMUNITY CONVERSATION. MR
GABRIEL. YEAH I THINK YOU THANK
YOU VERY MUCH ON A CHAIR AND-
SAID I JUST WANNA COMPLIMENT YOU
ON THE BILL- HAVE PROUD TO HAVE
PROJECT IN A CO AUTHOR WHEN YOU
FIRST INTRODUCED IT. FOR ME THIS
BILL IS REALLY A TO FOR- AND
ALSO A FIRST YOU KNOW I THINK
IT'S AN IMPORT RECOGNITION THAT.
WE'RE GOING TO MAKE PROGRESS ON
THE TREMENDOUS HOUSING AND
HOMELESSNESS CRISIS IN THE STATE
WE NEED EVERYBODY. EVERYBODY HAS
A ROLE TO PLAY AND I THINK WE
HAVE SEEN OUR FAITH COMMUNITIES.
HAVE BEEN ENGAGED IN THIS WORK
FROM THE VERY BEGINNING I KNOW
THAT THE LARGEST. FOOD PANTRY
LOS ANGELES COUNTY IS THAT THE
PRINCE OF PEACE CHURCH IN MY- IN
MY IN MY ASSEMBLY DISTRICT. AND
IT'S BECAUSE THE CHURCH VERY
EARLY ON RECOGNIZE THAT THERE
ARE PEOPLE EVEN IN AFFLUENT
PARTS OF MIKE DISTRICT THAT THAT
NEEDED HELP. AND THEY SAW THAT
IS ESSENTIAL TO THEIR RELIGIOUS
MISSION AND I THINK THIS IS
GIVING. A REALLY PRODUCTIVE WAY
FOR THE FAITH COMMUNITY FOR
HIGHER EDUCATION COMMUNITY TO
COME IN AND BE PART OF THE
SOLUTION WE DESPERATELY NEED
EVERYBODY TO BE AT THE TABLE TO
BE PART OF SOLUTION. I ALSO WANT
TO YOU KNOW PICK UP ON WHAT. MY
COLLEAGUE HERE SAID IN AND AS
THE CHAIR CHAIR THE JEWISH
CAUCUS THIS THAT YOUR CAUCUS.
BILL FOR THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST
BEAUTIFUL WAYS THAT WE CAN
ENABLE OUR FAITH COMMUNITY TO BE
PART OF THE SOLUTION AND I
CERTAINLY SEE THIS- THE WORK OF.
THAT THIS BILL WOULD DO WITH
THOSE WHO ARE STRUGGLING IN OUR
COMMUNITY FROM. FROM
HOMELESSNESS AND- IT LACKED A
LACK OF SECURE HOUSING. THIS IS
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EXPRESSION OF
FAITH. NOW IN ITS IN ITS TRUEST
FORM AND I KNOW THAT THAT IS
TRUE FOR PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT
FAITHS AND BACKGROUNDS FOR
PEOPLE WHO MAY ASCRIBE TO MORAL
CODE. OUTSIDE OF ORGANIZED
RELIGION BUT FOR ME IT IS JUST
SUCH A- SUCH A BEAUTIFUL WAY FOR
A LOT OF PEOPLE. WHO SEE HELPING
THOSE WHO ARE LESS FORTUNATE. AS
IN A CENTRAL TENET OF THEIR
FAITH TO REALLY ACTUALIZED AT
AND I KNOW IT'S YOU KNOW
SENATOR. MY SYNAGOGUE HAS HAD
CONVERSATIONS WE HAVE A BIG
PARKING LOT. AND WE TALKED ABOUT
COULD WE BUILD SENIOR AFFORDABLE
HOUSING ON TOP OF THAT PARKING
LOT THAT IS. THAT IS WHERE MY
KIDS GO TO PRESCHOOL AND THE
IDEA THAT. OUR LOW INCOME
SENIORS AS WE KNOW FROM RESEARCH
THE MOST LIKELY TO BECOME
HOMELESS. COULD BE THERE COULD
INTERACT MAYBE FOLKS ARE A
LITTLE LONELY WITH KIDS AT THE
PRESCHOOL ARE MY KIDS GOING TO
JUST BE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL THING
THAT WOULD WORK SO BEAUTIFULLY.
FOR EVERYBODY INVOLVED ON A LOT
OF LEVELS FOR THE KIDS FOR THE
SENIORS. FOR MAKING SURE THAT
THOSE FOLKS DON'T BECOME
HOMELESSNESS SO. I THINK IT'S A
BEAUTIFUL BUILDING WILL COMMENCE
ON A COMMAND ADVOCATES YOU'VE
DONE REALLY GREAT WORK ON HERE
AND I REALLY REALLY HOPE THIS
GETS SIGNED INTO LAW. AND WITH
THAT HAPPY TO MOVE THE BILL.
GREAT ANY OTHER. MISTER
PATTERSON. YEAH I. SOME. FIRST A
COMMENT I THINK. THE LAST TWO
BILLS HAVE SAID TO ME THAT THIS
IS AN INVITATION TO THE
ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNITY. TO GET
SERIOUSLY INVOLVED IN
DISCUSSIONS ON HOUSING- YOU KNOW
SO WE CAN ACTUALLY ACCOMPLISH
THESE GOALS AND- YOU KNOW
THERE'S NOT. NAY PICKING AT.
EVERY SINGLE. PROJECT EVER.
EVERYWHERE BUT- I WANT TO ASK A
QUESTION A LITTLE BIT. ABOUT-
EXACTLY. HOW THIS WORKS AROUND.
URBANIZED AREAS IN URBAN SITES.
AND BECAUSE THIS ISN'T LIKE A
CHURCH THAT'S- YOU KNOW STE.
STAND ALONE. BY ITSELF. YOU
KNOW. IN EL DORADO COUNTY OR
SOMETHING THIS IS THAT WHERE
THERE'S- OTHER. DEVELOPMENT
AROUND DAY. AND WHAT TYPES OF
DEVELOPMENT. ARE REQUIRED UNDER
THIS BILL. TO BE AROUND IT FOR
THEM TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF. THE
PROVISIONS IN SB FOUR. RUNNERS
WILL. SURE SO WITH THE BILL WE
TOOK A FOCUS AROUND URBAN AND
SELL AS WAS DESCRIBED FOR IT FOR
A WHILE AND ANALYSIS OF THE
COMMITTEE. WITH THE HOPE THAT
YOU KNOW WE CAN USE THESE
PROJECTS IN THESE DEVELOPED
AREAS TO HELP ABOUT THE HOUSING
ITSELF AND HAVE A LOT OF
INFRASTRUCTURE IN PLACE FOR THE
COMMUNITIES THAT WILL BE LIVE IN
THERE AS WELL SO WE DO HAVE
THOSE DEFINITIONS IN THE BILL WE
ALSO ALLOW FOR. OTHER KINDS OF
PROJECTS AND WE HAD A LOT OF
VERY PRACTICAL FOR STATIONS WITH
WHAT KIND OF DANCE YOU CAN HAVE
RUN RURAL SUBURBAN AREAS AS
WELL- BUT WE DON'T THOSE
DEFINITIONS TO ENSURE WE CAN
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A LOT OF THAT
COMMUNITY AND INFRASTRUCTURE
ALREADY IN PLACE TRYING TO MAKE
IT AS SEAMLESS AS POSSIBLE. FOR
FAITH COMMUNITIES TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF THIS BILL SINCE THIS ISN'T
EXACTLY THEIR AREA OF EXPERTISE
ON MAKE SURE IT'S SIMPLE AND
STRAIGHTFORWARD YEAH CAN YOU
DESCRIBE SOME OF THAT WHAT WHAT
THE DEFINITION IS IT. IN THE
VALE OF WAY IN URBAN AREA MEANS
OF INFILL. OF WHAT THE OF INFILL
YES YES EXACTLY VOTERS HAVE BEEN
BILL UNTIL AND I THINK IT'S THE
SAME AND- IN THIS BILL. YEAH IT
HAS TO BE SURROUNDED ON THREE
SIDES. BY ALREADY DEVELOPED. BY
AREAS. IS IT ANY TYPE OF
DEVELOPMENT OR IS IT CERTAIN
TYPES OF DEVELOPMENT WITHIN
THOSE THREE SIDES. I'VE BEEN
THROUGH ANY KIND OF DEVELOPMENT
. THE IDEA IS THAT IF IT IF I'D
USE AS YOU. DESCRIBED IT A
STANDALONE CHURCH YOU KNOW IT'S
LIKE AND- THE MIDDLE OF A- MORE
ISOLATED WORLD AREA WITH NOTHING
. AROUND THAT WOULD NOT. WOULD
NOT BE ELIGIBLE- BUT. DOESN'T
HAVE TO BE ONLY RESIDENTIAL- OR
THE CRIB. COMMERCIAL COULD BE.
OTHER OTHER CHURCHES POTENTIALLY
OF YOU HAVE ANOTHER. PERHAPS BUT
NOW. OKAY I THINK. ANY OTHER
QUESTIONS. I THINK. WE HAVE A
MUCH. WE DO MOTIONS WE DECIDE.

HOMELESSNESS PREVENTION ACT WILL
PROTECT LOW INCOME RENTERS FROM
UNJUST EVICTIONS AND
UNREASONABLE RENT INCREASES I
WANT TO START BY THANKING THE
COMMITTEE CHAIR MADAM CHAIR AND
YOUR STAFF FOR RECOMMENDING AN
AMENDMENT REGARDING THE
OWNERSHIP DEFINITION. FOR THE
MOVE IN EVICTION PROVISION I
ACCEPT THAT AMENDMENT. UP AS YOU
KNOW MEMBERS AND BEEN TALKED
ABOUT AYE I SAW THE- ALL MORNING
THAT THE- HOMELESSNESS CRISIS IS
IMPACTING EVERY COMMUNITY- WITH
THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE BECOMING ON
HOUSE AND OF COURSE AFTER THEY
BECOME ON HOUSED. OF EVEN DYING
ON THE STREETS OF THE PERCENTAGE
HAS GROWN ENORMOUSLY BUT HERE'S
ONE VERY IMPORTANT FACT AN
AVERAGE OF A HUNDRED AND SIXTY
THOUSAND HOUSEHOLDS FACE COURT
EVICTIONS ANNUALLY. THAT MEANS
THAT AN ESTIMATED ONE POINT FIVE
MILLION CALIFORNIANS FACED
EVICTION DURING- A THREE YEAR
STARTING IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN.
THESE DISTURBING TRENDS WILL
CONTINUE TO WORSEN IF WE DO NOT
PROACTIVELY ADDRESS OUR ISSUES
BESIDES OF HOUSING PRODUCTION
AFFORDABILITY BUT ALSO
ENFORCEMENT OF EXISTING
PROTECTIONS. SO SB FIVE SIX
SEVEN PROVIDES CALIFORNIA'S
HOUSING STABILITY AND REDUCES
THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE ON THE
BRINK OF HOMELESSNESS WE JUST
CAN'T LET ANY MORE FAMILIES GET
PUSHED OUT ONTO THE STREETS. OF
THE FIVE SIX SEVEN DOES TWO
THINGS ADDRESS LOOPHOLES FOR
EXISTING TENANT PROTECTIONS AND
PROVIDES ENFORCEMENT OF EXISTING
TENANT PROTECTIONS OF AB FOUR
EIGHT FOURTEEN EIGHTY TWO AS YOU
ALL REMEMBER WAS MONUMENTAL. AND
THIS BILL IS MAKING SURE THAT
THE SPIRIT OF THAT LAW IS
HONORED AND CARRIED OUT I WORKED
EXTENSIVELY TO ADDRESS CONCERNS
AND SCALE THE BILL DOWN WILL
KEEP IN THE SPIRIT TO ENSURE
ENFORCEMENT OF EXISTING TENANT
PROTECTIONS WITHOUT EXPANDING
THE SCOPE OF FOURTEEN EIGHTY
TWO. OF HAVING REMOVED I REMOVED
THE SINGLE FAMILY HOME MOBILE
HOMES- AND THE REDUCTION OF THE
RENT CAMP THOUGH LOWS ARE NO
LONGER PART OF THE BILL SO NOW
IS B. FIVE SIX SEVEN INCLUDES A
MODIFIES PROVISIONS OF THE
TENANT PROTECTION ACT RELATED TO
NO FAULT EVICTIONS FOR OWNER
MOVE IN WITHDRAWAL FROM THE
RENTAL MARKET. AND SUBSTANTIAL
REMODEL TO CLOSE LOOPHOLES THAT
HAVE BECOME EVIDENT SINCE THE
LOBBY CAME- GOT INTO EFFECT IN
TWENTY NINETEEN- WITH ME TODAY

MORNING MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS
I'M SUCEDER SHORTS OF PUBLIC

ADVOCACY ORGANIZATION THAT
CHALLENGES THE SYSTEMIC CAUSES
OF POVERTY AND RACIAL
DISCRIMINATION. AS YOU KNOW THE
ADOPTION OF THE TENANT
PROTECTION ACT IN TWENTY
NINETEEN IT WAS A LANDMARK
MOMENT FOR THE TENANTS WE WORK
WITH PROVIDING STATEWIDE
PROTECTIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
FROM UNFAIR ARBITRARY EVICTIONS
AND EXORBITANT RENT INCREASES.
UNFORTUNATELY THE PROMISE OF THE
LAW WAS SOON DIMINISHED AS WE
HEARD STORIES FROM OUR LEGAL
SERVICES COLLEAGUES OF LANDLORDS
EXPLOITING LOOPHOLES IN THE LAW
TO EVICT TENANTS AND ESCAPE THE
LAWS PROTECTIONS. SB FIVE SIX
SEVEN RESTORES THE PROMISE OF
THE TENANT PROTECTION ACT BY
CLOSING LOOPHOLES IN THE LAW AND
HOLDING BAD ACTORS ACCOUNTABLE
WHO WILLFULLY VIOLATE THE LAW.
THE BILL ADDS REASONABLE GUARD
RAILS TO THE LAWS EXISTING
PROVISIONS TO ENSURE THAT WHEN A
LANDLORD IS ALLEGING AN INTENT
TO MOVE IN A RELATIVE. TO
REHABILITATE THE UNIT OR TO
WITHDRAW THEM FROM THE RENTAL
MARKET THAT THEY ARE IN FACT
DOING ONE OF THOSE THINGS. IN
ADDITION THE BILL STRENGTHENS
ENFORCEMENT TO DETER ON LAWFUL
BEHAVIOR AND PROVIDE TENANTS
WITH MEANINGFUL REMEDIES. SB
FIVE SIX SEVEN IS A BILL AIMED
AT FULFILLING THE INTENT OF THE
TENANT PROTECTION ACT
ALLEVIATING OUR HOUSING CRISIS

GOOD AFTERNOON. MADAM CHAIR AND
MEMBERS DEBRA CARLTON WITH THE
CALIFORNIA APARTMENT ASSOCIATION
FIRST LET ME TELL YOU WHAT WE
AGREE WITH. OUR OWNER SHOULD NOT
CHEAT THE LAW. ATTENDEES SHOULD
NOT BE MOVED OUT OF THEIR UNITS
IN VIOLATION OF THE EXISTING LAW
EIGHTY FOURTEEN EIGHTY TWO.
SENATE BILL FIVE SIX SEVEN
HOWEVER IS NOT JUST ABOUT
PUNISHING THE BAD ACTORS WE
BELIEVE IT DRAMATICALLY CHANGES
THE EXISTING STATUTE AB FOURTEEN
EIGHTY TWO WELL I WAS A
PROACTIVE RESPONSE TO THE
STATE'S LONGSTANDING HOUSING
CRISIS. A BALANCE WAS STRUCK IN
NEGOTIATING FOURTEEN EIGHTY TWO
TO AVOID EXACERBATING THE
HOUSING CRISIS BY D. VALUE BEING
RENTAL PROPERTY DISINCENTIVE
RISING CONSTRUCTION NEW HOUSING
AT THE SAME TIME WE DIDN'T WANT
TO DETER SMALL RENTAL PROPERTY
OWNERS FROM DECIDING TO ENTER
THE MARKET OR FROM EXITING THE
MARKET. SO FOR OWNER MOVE IN WE
DON'T OBJECT TO THE PROOF THAT
AN OWNER IS GOING TO MOVE IN OR
A MINIMUM TIME THAT THEY MUST
STAY. WE OBJECT TO THE NEW
DEFINITION OF A PERSON AS OR AS
THE OWNER AT LEAST BEING 51% OF
THE OWNERSHIP A NEW DEFINITION
IS NOT NECESSARY AND THERE ARE
DIFFERENT WAYS IN WHICH WE
RENTAL PROPERTY OWNERS HOLD
HOUSING PRIMARILY AS A FAMILY
TRUST. THE BILL HURTS THAT THE
DEFINITION AND THE COMMITTEE
MEMBERS DON'T HELP US WITH THAT
SPECIFIC ISSUE FOR MAJOR REHAB
OF WINDOW GO SHOOTING AB
FOURTEEN EIGHTY TWO WE WERE
CAREFULLY. ON CRAFTING A
DEFINITION OF SUBSTANTIAL REHAB
AND REMODELING SENATE BILL FIVE
SIX SEVEN PROPOSES TO MODIFY
THAT DEFINITION OF STE OF
SUBSTANTIALLY MODEL SO AS TO
LIMIT WORK ONLY TO THAT. WHICH
YOU NEED A PERMIT. THIS
COMPLETELY DISREGARD TO THE
SITUATIONS IN WHICH YOU NEED TO
CLEAN UP PROPERTY BECAUSE OF
WATER DAMAGE OR MOLD. WITH THE
RECENT FLOODS IN THE CENTRAL
VALLEY FOR EXAMPLE MANY
PROPERTIES SUFFERED MAJOR WATER
AND MOLD DAMAGE WHICH REQUIRED
TENANTS TO MOVE OUT YOU DON'T
NEED A PERMIT TO FIX VOTE THAT
DAMAGE WE HAVE ASKED FOR THE
BILL BE AMENDED. A TO MAKE CLEAR
THAT THERE ARE OTHER FORMS OF
PROOF THAT CAN BE REQUIRED. I'M
LEAVING TENANTS AND- IN PLACE
WHEN THERE'S MOLD IS JUST NOT A
SAFE THING TO DO. AND FINALLY
TAKING UNITS OFF THE MARKET- AND
THAT'S LAST BUT CERTAINLY NOT
LEAST SENATE BILL FIVE SIX SEVEN
PROPOSES AMENDMENTS TO THE
PROVISIONS OF FOURTEEN EIGHTY
TWO WHICH ALLOWS A LANDLORD TO
TERMINATE. A TENANCY WHEN THE
PROPERTY WILL BE WITHDRAWN FROM
THE RENTAL MARKET. FOR THE VERY
FIRST TIME WE SEE A CLAIM BY THE
SPONSORS AND THE ANALYSIS. THAT
THIS WITHDRAWAL EQUATES TO USING
THE PROVISIONS OF THE ELLIS ACT
THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE WE
WOULD NEVER HAVE AGREED TO THAT.
NOR WITH THE LEGISLATURE THEY
HAVE REJECTED MANY TIMES CHANGES
TO THE ELLIS ACT. NOT ONE IN.
ANALYSIS PREPARED IN CONNECTION
WITH FORTY NEEDED TO KNOW ANY
AMENDMENTS. TO FOURTEEN EIGHTY
TWO THEREAFTER EVER MENTIONED
WITHDRAWAL. PROVISIONS AS A KID
TO THOSE OF THE ELLIS ACT- THE
THERE IS THIS IS NOT A MODEST
CHANGE TO- FOURTEEN EIGHTY TWO
REQUIRES A ONE HUNDRED AND-
TWENTY DAY NOTICE. I NO OTHER
CAUSE OF ACTION REQUIRES A ONE
HUNDRED TWENTY DAY NOTICE. AND
IT'S LOGICAL FOR US TO ASSUME
THAT TENANTS ARE GOING TO PAY
THE RENT THEY DO THAT ALREADY
TODAY WHERE YOU HAVE THESE TYPES
OF NOTICES IN LOS ANGELES SAN
FRANCISCO IN ALAMEDA. IF AN
OWNER WISHES TO SELL THE
PROPERTY REMOVE IT FROM THE
MARKET SO THAT THE BUYER HAS AN
OPTION. TO RE RENT OR TO LIMIT
THEMSELVES THEY SHOULD HAVE THE
RIGHT TO DO SO. AND TO BE CLEAR
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT SMALL
PROPERTIES VICTORIANS FOR
EXAMPLE THAT ARE CONVERTED BACK.
IN SUMMARY- AS THE JUDICIAL
COUNCIL RECENTLY REPORTED TO THE
LEGISLATURE. EVICTIONS ARE
DRAMATICALLY DOWN NOT EVEN CLOSE
TO PRE PANDEMIC LEVELS LESS THAN
POINT A HO OH OH ONE PERCENT. OF
OUR TOTAL POPULATION HAS EVER
FACED EVICTION. AND THOSE
TENANTS WHO DID WERE EVICTED FOR
NONPAYMENT OF RENT OR ILLEGAL OR
NUISANCE ACTIVITY WHICH HARMED
OTHER TENANTS AT THE PROPERTY.
THIS IS BAD POLICY IN CHANGING
FOURTEEN EIGHTY TWO WHEN WE
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR NO
VOTE TODAY THANK YOU. A GOOD
AFTERNOON MADAM CHAIR AND
MEMBERS- CREAM THREE C. ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS- HERE
TODAY IN STRONG OPPOSITION TO SB
FIVE SIXTY SEVEN. WHICH OPENS
THE LEGISLATIVE AGREEMENT
REACHED ON A. B. FOURTEEN EIGHTY
TWO- SINCE TODAY IS MY LATE
MOTHER MOTHER'S BIRTHDAY AND-
SHE PASSED AWAY A NUMBER OF
YEARS AGO DUE TO SERIOUS
ILLNESS. AND I CARED FOR HER
DURING THE FINAL YEARS OF HER
LIFE- I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DID
NOT- STOCKS USING I DID I WOULD
BE REMISS IF I DID NOT START
WITH THE FOLLOWING- SB FIVE
SIXTY SEVEN. MAKES IT EXTREMELY
DIFFICULT FOR SMALL HOUSING
PROVIDERS TO MOVE IN AND CARE
FOR AN ELDERLY. FAMILY MEMBER-
HERE'S HOW THAT PROVISION OF SB
FIVE SIXTY SEVEN WORKS. THE
SMALL HOUSING PROVIDER MOVES
THEIR ELDERLY MOTHER INTO UNIT
TO CARE FOR HER AND SHE PASSES
AWAY WITHIN TWELVE MONTHS SB
FIVE SIXTY SEVEN FORCES THAT
HOUSING PROVIDER TO READ IT. TO
RE ENTER THE RENTAL HOUSING
BUSINESS AND TO RE READ THE UNIT
TO THE PRIOR TENANT. UNDER THE
SAME TERMS AND RENTAL RATE IS
BEFORE AND WHILE THAT HOUSING
PROVIDER IS GRIEVING PAYING FOR
THE MOTHER'S MOTHER'S FUNERAL
EXPENSES AND OTHER EXPENSES SB
FIVE SIXTY SEVEN FORCES THEM. TO
PAY FOR THAT PRIOR TENANTS
MOVING EXPENSES TO RELOCATE BACK
TO THE UNIT. EVEN IF THE PRIOR
TENANT IS CURRENTLY LOCATED. IN
ANOTHER STATE OR ANOTHER COUNTRY
THESE PROVISIONS ARE SIMPLY NOT
WORKABLE IS CURRENTLY DRAFTED.
ADDITIONALLY SB FIVE SIXTY SEVEN
REQUIRES THAT IF A SMALL HOUSING
PROVIDER WISHES TO WITHDRAW
THEIR PROPERTY FROM THE RENTAL
MARKET. THEY MUST RECORD A
NOTICE WITH THE COUNTY RECORDER
THAT INCLUDES INFORMATION SUCH
AS QUOTE. THE DATES APPLICABLE
TO THE CONSTRAINTS. FURTHERMORE
THE NOTICE IS REQUIRED TO BE
INDEXED IN THE GRAND TOUR
GRANTEE INDEX. THIS RAISES MANY
QUESTIONS INCLUDING WHO'S GOING
TO BE DEVELOPING THE
STANDARDIZED FORM. IS IN THE
COUNTY RECORDER'S TO THE COUNTY
RECORDER'S HAVE THE STAFF AND
FINANCIAL RESOURCES NECESSARY TO
DO THAT. WHY IS THE NOTICE
INDEXED IN THE GRANT AWARD
GRANTEE INDEX. AND LASTLY WE
RESPECT WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT
QUOTE THE DATES APPLICABLE TO
THE CONSTRAINTS MEANS. AND
NEITHER WILL THE SENIOR COUPLE
ATTEMPTING TO FILE SUCH A
NOTICE- BUT AGAIN RESPECTFULLY
THAT APPEARS TO BE PRECISELY THE
POINT. THESE PROVISIONS ARE NOT
MEANT TO FERRET OUT THIS OR THAT
BAD ACTORS. RATHER IT APPEARS AS
THOUGH MANY OF THESE PROVISIONS
ARE PURPOSELY DRAFTED. SO AS TO
RENDER THEM UNWORKABLE FOR SMALL
HOUSING PROVIDERS. FOR THESE AND
OTHER REASONS WE RESPECTFULLY
REQUEST A NO VOTE ON SB FIVE
SIXTY SEVEN. THANK YOU SO MUCH
THANK YOU. OUR OTHER FOLKS WISH
EXPRESS OPPOSITION PLEASE. NAME
ORGANIZATION POSITION. CAN
ADVOCACY ON THE- MENTAL HOUSING
SO. IN A- THANK YOU. IN YOUR
MCDONALD ON BEHALF OF THE
CALIFORNIA MORTGAGE BANKERS
ASSOCIATION RESPECTFULLY OPPOSED
. NATALIE BELLS TO BE OF THE
CALIFORNIA BUSINESS ROUNDTABLE
IN OPPOSITION. THANK YOU WILL
BRING IT BACK TO THE COMMITTEE
MISTER KALRA. TWO OF. LIKE TO
MOVE THE BILL AND IF I COULD BE
ADDED ON THIS CALL. THE MOTION
TO HAVE A SECOND. SECOND BY MISS
CARILLO OTHER QUESTIONS COMMENTS
. SURE SOME COMMENTS AS WELL- I
THINK- ARGUABLY THIS MIGHT BE
ONE MORE OR MORE SERIOUS BILLS
THAT WERE TAKING UP HERE TODAY
AS WELL AND I WANT TO THANK THE
AUTHOR FOR WORKING ON THIS- OF
COURSE- IT'S IMPORTANT- THAT
HISTORY THAT. WAS CAREFULLY
NEGOTIATED TO BE ABLE TO START
TO WORK ON HOW WE'RE GOING TO BE
ABLE TO PROVIDE SOME OF THESE
PROTECTIONS AND- WORKING WITH
PROPERTY OWNERS AS WELL TO BE
ABLE TO ACHIEVE- THE END IN A
BILL. THAT SAID LESSONS AND
LEARNED- OVER THE TIMES AND TO
THE EXTENT THAT WE HAVE HAD-
INAPPROPRIATE- ADDICTIONS- OR-
THINGS THAT HAVE NOTHING
CONSISTENT WITH WITH SOME OF
THAT AGREEMENT AS WELL. LIMITED
THAT IT MIGHT BE HERE THERE-
BUT- THAT THAT DESERVES TO BE
ADDRESSED IN TIME EVERY SENSE IS
BILLS MOVING FORWARD- HEARING
SOME OF THE SPECIFIC- KIND OF
SUBSTANCE THAT I THINK
OPPOSITION IS RAISED HERE TODAY
I WOULD ENCOURAGE- A GOOD FAITH
EFFORT TO BE ABLE TO WORK ON
SOME OF THOSE- WHEREVER.
WHEREVER POSSIBLE ON LINE SHARE
THIS OF COURSE IS ALSO COMING
DOWN TO- THE ADJUSTMENT OF THAT
THAT CAP- AND- WORKING ON WHAT
WAS AT 10% OR- IN- 2% 10% OR-
WELL. ADJUSTED I WOULD BE
INFLATION FACTOR IS ALSO PUT IN-
AND GETTING SOMETHING THAT IS
MAYBE EVEN A LITTLE BIT MORE. IN
RANGE OF- WHAT IS. THIS OF HOW
COSTS HERE. I AM SENSE IN A TRY
BE VERY MINDED ABOUT WHAT WE'RE
ABOUT ON TERMS OF. A PROPERTY
OWNER AND LANDLORD AND THEIR
WRITING ABILITY TO BE ABLE TO
MAKE THE MATH WORK OUT FOR THEM
AS WELL MANY OF THESE
INDIVIDUALS THOUGH I'VE HAD LONG
STANDING- PROPERTY- HOLDINGS.
AND THE CONTINUITY WERE MAYBE
WHEN THEY ACQUIRED THAT IN THE
EIGHTIES OR NINETIES OR EVEN
MORE MORE RECENTLY. AND THINGS
HAVE JUST GOTTEN SO OUT OF WHACK
HERE IN CALIFORNIA AS WELL THAT
WE HAVE TO. THINK A LITTLE BIT
MORE ALMOST AND- COMPELLED- THE
LEGISLATURE TO THINK ABOUT
USING- FISCAL POLICY AND I THINK
I THINK THAT'S AN ELEMENT HERE
AS WELL TO BE ABLE TO TRY TO
PUT. A PUT A PUT A HOLD ON THAT
RIGHT BECAUSE OF THE CONSEQUENCE
OF NOT ACTING ON THAT WE KNOW
WHAT THAT'S GOING TO BE. MORE
HOMELESSNESS MORE PEOPLE
SUFFERING MORE PEOPLE HAVING TO
MOVE FARTHER AWAY FROM THEIR
JOBS ALL THE THINGS THAT ARE
REALLY DEMANDED UP TO TRY TO
REIN BACK IN AS WELL. IT'S SO
IT'S NOT I THINK AN EASY THING
IT'S ALMOST KIND OF A LAST
RESORT MEASURE THAT WE'RE
GETTING TO IT OR THEY ARE
ACTUALLY. WE PROBABLY GOT THERE
YESTERDAY AND WE REALLY NEED TO
DO SORT OF WORK ON. A WAY TO
SORT OF KINDA KEEP AIN'T LEAD ON
THE STATUS OF WHERE THINGS ARE
AT BECAUSE WORKERS. SALARIES ARE
JUST NOT CAUGHT UP TO WHERE THE
RENT IS. AND SO WE HAVE TO ACT
MORE A APPRECIATE THE AUTHOR IN
YOUR LEADERSHIP TO. WORK TO BE
ABLE TO ASSIST MEMBERS OF THE
COMMUNITY AND I DON'T
DISRESPECT. THE PERSPECTIVES
THAT ARE- LANDHOLDERS- AND GOOD
GOOD LANDLORDS ACTUALLY- WANT TO
WANT TO HAVE A KNOWLEDGEABLE TO
AYE I DO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT- SO
LED TO BE ABLE TO SEE HOW THIS
MATURES- AS IT MOVES FORWARD AS
WELL BUT- I WANT TO THANK YOU
FOR TAKING THIS ON THIS YEAR I
THINK- THE TIME IS CRITICAL THAT
WE- ARE ARE HELPING. STABILIZE
THE SITUATION AS WE FIGURE OUT
BROADER SOLUTIONS FOR MORE
HOUSING SUPPLY. THANK YOU THANK
YOU VERY MUCH. GOODNIGHT PLEASE
NOT THANK YOU CHAIR I JUST WANT
TO. IN OUR COM. MOST READ. WITH
SOME OF THE MEMBERS AND WITH
OTHERS. THERE ARE SEVERAL AREAS
IN WHICH WE WANT TO WE COMMIT I
COMMIT TO CONTINUE THE
CONVERSATIONS- WITH REGARDS TO
THE WITH WELL- WITHDRAWAL FROM
THE RENTAL MARKET. SKEWS ME.
ALSO THERE WERE THE ISSUE OF THE
MOLD OF FAMILY TRUSTS AND-
IMPACT ON SMALL LANDLORDS SO. I
COMMIT TO CONTINUING THOSE
CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU ALL WITH
THE COMMITTEE REALLY VERY
GRATEFUL TO THE- COMMITTEE FOR
ALL OF THEIR WORK SO. THERE ARE
SOME AREAS WHERE WE WANT TO
CONTINUE THE CONVERSATION. OTHER
QUESTIONS MR GABRIEL. YEAH I
JUST WANTED TO THANK YOU FOR
THAT SENATORS WE HAD SOME
OPTIONS HAVE A SIDEBAR ABOUT
THIS THINK THAT. OVERALL
UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO
DO VERY VERY IMPORTANT FROM
HOMELESSNESS PREVENTION
PERSPECTIVE BUT ALSO THERE ARE
SOME DETAILS THAT NEED TO BE
IRONED OUT HERE AND I THINK
THAT- YOU KNOW THE FURTHER
CONVERSATIONS OPTIMISTIC TO HEAR
THAT THOSE ARE GONNA HAPPEN AND-
YOU KNOW SOME OF THE WHITEWATER
SUMMER WARD SAID SO. WITH THAT
HAVE YOU SUPPORT THE BILL TODAY
BY LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU
GUYS CONTINUE TO HAVE THOSE
CONVERSATIONS. THANKS
QUIRK-SILVA. JUST CONCUR WITH MY
COLLEAGUES AND ALSO SHOOT YOUR
WILLINGNESS TO CONTINUE THE
CONVERSATION- YOU MENTION TO
SOME OF THE ISSUES AS FAR AS THE
TRUCKS- AND SOME OF THE OTHER
ISSUES SO AS YOU MOVE FORWARD-
WOULD JUST BE. A CONTINUING TO
LOOK AT IT AND HOPE YOU GET TO A
PLACE THAT WE CAN MAKE SOME
MODIFICATIONS. THANK YOU. MISTER
PATTERSON. THANK YOU. WE
APPRECIATE. YOUR WORK ON-
PROTECTING PEOPLE WHO YOU KNOW
RENTS. YOU KNOW CRAP UP MY
PARENTS STOOD ON A HOME AND I
HAVE MENTIONED HERE BRAZILIAN
TIMES. THAT MY MOM LIVES IN
AFFORDABLE UNIT RIGHT NOW- YOU
KNOW. I FOUND MYSELF IN TWO
THOUSAND TANISHQ. BEING AN
UNWILLING LANDLORD- WHEN WE HAD
TO RELOCATE FOR WORK AND AS I
HAD THIS RENTAL PROPERTY AND WE
WERE- YOU KNOW WHILE READING IT
OUT BUT IT WAS MY PRIMARY
RESIDENCE WITHIN ANOTHER
RESIDENTS ANYWHERE ELSE WE
BECAME RENTERS WHERE WE WERE
LIVING. AND JUST OF THE HOW
DIFFICULT IT WAS TO YOU KNOW
COMPLY WITH THE LAWS THAT
ALREADY EXISTED AT THE TIME YOU
KNOW OVER TEN YEARS AGO. MAYBE
SAID IT LOOKS LIKE I'M I'M
SELLING THIS HOUSE AND SO
FORTUNATELY SOMEBODY LIVES THERE
AND IS A HOMEOWNER BUT IT'S NO
LONGER AVAILABLE ON THE TENANT
MARKET. AND I THINK WHAT'S
HAPPENED OVER THE LAST COUPLE
YEARS IS WE'VE BECOME- NOT ONLY
FOR I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT
THE SMALL SMALL A PROPERTY OWNER
WHICH IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE
GONNA CONTINUE TO WORK ON THAT
BUT IT'S NOT JUST THEM IN MY
COMMUNITY AND THAT'S BIG
PROPERTY OWNERS AND- YOU KNOW I
THINK THE BEST WAY TO MAKE SURE
PEOPLE CAN. CONTINUE TO RENT
PROPERTIES INCENTIVIZING YOU
KNOW PEOPLE TO WANT TO COME INTO
THE MARKET AND BUILD MORE
HOUSING AND BUILD MORE. HOUSING
THAT PEOPLE CAN AFFORD TO LIVE
AND SO- I DO HAVE A CONCERNS
OBVIOUSLY ABOUT THE CHILLING
EFFECT THIS MIGHT HAVE EVEN ON
LARGE. LANDLORDS BETS THAT. YOU
NOT LIKE I SAID I'M SYMPATHETIC
TOWARDS YOUR BECAUSE- OBVIOUSLY-
YOU KNOW I DON'T WANT PEOPLE
KICKED OUT OF HOUSES. IN THEIR
HOMES AND THEIR LIVELIHOODS IN
THE YOU KNOW THAT REALLY DOES
RESONATE WITH ME BUT I'M
CONCERNED ABOUT. THE CREATION OF
ADDITIONAL HOUSING AND WHAT THIS
MIGHT DO FOR THAT ON THE MARKET
SO JUST WANTED TO NOTE THAT
THANK YOU. OTHER QUESTIONS
COMMENTS. IT'S CARILLO. THANK
YOU MADAM CHAIR AND THANK YOU TO
THE AUTHOR AND TO ALL OF THE
ADVOCATES. THAT ARE HERE-
SUPPORTING- THE EXTENSION OF
TENANT PROTECTIONS. I APPRECIATE
THE CONVERSATION THAT THAT WE
HAD EARLIER I TO I'M I'M
CONCERNED ABOUT. A SMALL MOM AND
POP- RENTERS IN OUR DISTRICT
THAT WE SHARE TOGETHER- WE HAVE
DONE A LOT OF WORK IN THIS
COMMITTEE AS WELL AS AN BUDGET
COMMITTEE TO ESTABLISH-
OPPORTUNITIES FOR FIRST TIME
HOME BUYERS. WITH THE THOUGHT OF
THE IMPORTANCE OF WHAT IT IS TO
BE ABLE TO OWN A HOME AND CREATE
GENERATIONAL WEALTH FOR OUR
FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES THAT
HAVEN'T. TRADITIONALLY HAVE
ACCESS SO WE CONTINUE TO MAKE
THAT INVESTMENT IN BUDGET A
BUDGET THAT WE JUST PASSED IN IS
HEADED TO THE- TO. THE
GOVERNOR'S OFFICE NOW. MY
CONCERN IS THAT ON ONE SIDE WERE
ST HOMEOWNERSHIP IS IMPORTANT-
AND IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY FOR
FAMILIES TO CREATE GENERATIONAL
WEALTH AND THAT REQUIRES
PARTNERSHIP- WITH SEVERAL
ENTITIES. YET ON THE OTHER SIDE
WERE ALSO SAYING IT'S IMPORTANT
TO PROTECT TENANTS AND I
COMPLETELY AGREE AND UNDERSTAND
THAT. I ALSO WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT. FOR SMALL MOM AND POP
RENTERS- LIKE MANY IN OUR
DISTRICT. THAT WE ARE NOT
CREATING ADDITIONAL HURDLES FOR
THEM TO BE ABLE TO LET'S SAY
THEY ON A TRI PLEX OR A FOUR
PLEX OR DUPLEX WHICH IS VERY
COMMON. IN PLACES LIKE ECHO PARK
IN LINCOLN HEIGHTS AND SAID NO
AND COMMUNITIES THAT WE BOTH
REPRESENT. THAT WE'RE NOT
CREATING HURDLES FOR THEM TO BE
ABLE TO SAY YES I HAVE TENANTS
AND I'M A GOOD LANDLORD. BUT I
NOW HAVE AN ELDERLY PARENT OR AN
AGING PARENT OR SOMEONE IN MY
FAMILY THAT I. WOULD HOPE THAT I
NEED TO TAKE CARE OF OR THAT I
HOPE TO BE ABLE TO MOVE IN INTO
MY PROPERTY. OUT WITHOUT
CREATING THOSE CHALLENGES THAT
DON'T ALLOW FOR SOMEONE TO DO
THAT- WE HAD A SITUATION AND IN
MY OWN FAMILY WHERE WE HAD TO
MOVE IN A FAMILY MEMBER. WHO
NEEDED SUPPORT. LUCKILY MY
PARENTS WERE ABLE TO DO THAT AND
THE PROPERTY THAT THEY OWN AND
THAT THEY BOUGHT WAY BACK IN.
NINETEEN EIGHTY NINE- IN CITY
TERRACE IN EAST LA WHEN THAT
AREA WAS MARK HAD MORE VIOLENCE
HAD GANG VIOLENCE- YOU KNOW THAT
AREA HAS CHANGED QUITE A BIT.
BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT
WHILE THE POLICY TO PROTECT
TENANTS IS CRITICAL AND
IMPORTANT. THAT WE'RE NOT
CREATING CHALLENGES IN WHICH
PROPERTY OWNER IS NOT ABLE TO
MOVE IN A FAMILY MEMBER. ARE
GIVEN THIS THE CIRCUMSTANCES
AROUND YOU KNOW OWNERSHIP OF A-
PROPERTY THAT'S MORE THAN A
SINGLE RESIDENCY HOME- AND SO
I'M I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO
CONTINUING THE CONVERSATION AND
FIGURING OUT WHAT THAT COULD
LOOK LIKE- BECAUSE I DO BELIEVE
THAT WHILE WE TALK ABOUT. THE
IMPORTANCE OF HOMEOWNERSHIP
CREATING GENERATIONAL WEALTH
WHILE AT THE SAME TIME TALKING
ABOUT TENANT PROTECTIONS. WE ARE
NOT CREATING UNINTENDED
CONSEQUENCES FOR SMALL MOM AND
POP- PROPERTY OWNERS TO BE ABLE
TO DO AS THEY WOULD LIKE. ON
THEIR PROPERTY AND TO BE ABLE
TO. ENSURE THAT THEY CAN MOVE IN
FAMILY FOR THAT YOU KNOW THIS
THE OPPORTUNITIES WITHIN THE
FAMILY CONTINUE TO EXIST. THANK
YOU. THANK YOU. I NEITHER. ON A
LATER THAT WOULD WHEN YOU CLOSE
ANY OTHER QUESTION OR COMMENTS
FROM MEMBERS. WOULD YOU LIKE TO
CLOSE. THIS ANY. RESPONSIBILITY
ONCE YOU GET. TO THE RIGHT
FAMILY THING. OKAY OKAY GREAT
WELL- YES THESE ARE. THESE ARE
TOUGH- TOUGH ISSUE THAT WE HAVE
TO GRAPPLE WITH AND I RELY ON I
RELY ON NOT ONLY MY LIFE
EXPERIENCE AND PEOPLE IN OUR
DISTRICTS BUT ALSO EXPERTS SUCH
AS- THE COMMITTEE STAFF THIS
YEAR AND ADVOCATES I'M VERY VERY
GRATEFUL TO THE ADVOCATES WHO.
DROVE IN FROM ALL OVER
CALIFORNIA- YOU KNOW TO ASK US
TO HELP THEM STAY IN THEIR IN
THEIR PLACES THAT THEY WILL NOT
BE- EVICTED UNFAIRLY AND- THAT'S
WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT. NOT
CHANGING THE LAW ALL OF ALL OF
THEM WHETHER THEY'RE SMALL OR
LARGE LAND LORDS RIGHT NOW THEY
ARE COVERED BY THE LAW. ON THERE
ARE NO EXCEPTIONS SO HOW WE
HANDLE THAT WE WILL HAVE TO TRY
TO TACKLE THAT- BUT WE THINK I
THINK I KNOW THAT THERE ARE
OTHER ISSUES HERE THAT WE CAN
DEFINITELY ADDRESS SO WE WILL.
ABSOLUTELY MY PLEDGE TO DO OUR
BEST THANK YOU VERY MUCH THANK
YOU FOR EVERYONE'S COMMENTS.

BILL IS OUT. THERE YOU MEMBERS
CHANGE THANK YOU.
EXACTLY YEAH. WE WILL GIVE A
SECOND.
SO LAST BUT NOT LEAST MY SENATOR
CENTER NANCY SKINNER- WILL BE
PRESENTING SB. FOUR FOUR ZERO.
WE CAN JUST WAIT A SECOND FOR
THE DOOR TO SHUT.
IT'S BEEN ALLOWED MEETINGS TODAY
. I KNOW I CAME HERE WHEN MISTER
WINNER WAS STARTING 2% ALL OF
THE WITNESSES.
ALL RIGHT THANK YOU THEY BEGIN.
THANKS SO MUCH- MADAM CHAIR AND
MEMBERS PLEASED TO PRESENT SB
FOUR FORTY- I IMAGINED WELL ALL
OF YOU ARE NOT NECESSARILY HERE
WHEN- IN THE REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCIES- WORD- DISSOLVED AND
THE VARIOUS- COURT CASES AND A
BALLOT MEASURES AND SUCH- AND
OBVIOUSLY THIS BILL IS NOT HERE
TO RE LITIGATE ANY OF THAT BUT
REDEVELOPMENT WAS A TOOL THAT
NOT ALL BUT SOME LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS DID USE TO HELP
FINANCE AFFORDABLE HOUSING. AND
WE DID THE BASIC REALITY IS AS I
THINK ALL OF US KNOW TO. BUILDER
AFFORDABLE HOUSING WE NEED
SUBSIDIES AND THAT ONE OF THE
WAYS THAT WE TRY TO DO THAT IS
THROUGH OUR DENSITY BONUS
THROUGH VARIOUS WAYS THAT WE
GIVE MARKET RATE DEVELOPERS
INCENTIVES SO THAT THEY- ADD
SOME AFFORDABLE HOUSING TO THEIR
PROJECTS BUT THOSE ARE THEY ARE
DECENT THEY'RE GOOD WE'VE GOTTEN
SOME AFFORDABLE HOUSING THAT
WAY. BUT WERE NEVER GOING TO GET
THE AMOUNT OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
WE NEED THROUGH THAT MECHANISM
ALONE WE NEED PUBLIC SUBSIDY FOR
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND WHAT THIS
BILL DOES AND WE'VE ALREADY DONE
THE LEGISLATURE ALREADY HAS.
ENABLED TWO MAIN REGIONS IN OUR
STATE LOS ANGELES AREA IN THE
BAY AREA TO CREATE THESE
REGIONAL HOUSING FINANCE
AUTHORITIES. THAT WOULD ENABLE
THEM. TO I TO IN EFFECT RAISE
FUNDS IN ORDER TO SUBSIDIZE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING. NOW WHAT
THIS BILL DOES IS ALLOW ANY
REGION IN OUR STATE TO DO THAT
YES. THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN
THOSE AREAS CHOOSE TO COME
TOGETHER NAY OF COURSE WOULD
HAVE TO FORMA JPA A JOINT POWERS
AGREEMENT AND FOLLOW ALL OF
THEIR EXISTING LAWS THIS DOESN'T
SUSPEND ANY LOCAL CONTROL OR ANY
LOCAL PLANNING OR ANY ZONING-
BUT THEY WOULD THEN COME
TOGETHER. AND DECIDE THAT THEY
WANT TO COOPERATE TOGETHER TO
BUILD HOUSING AND TO FIGURE OUT
HOW TO FINANCE IT. NOW TO KEEP
REASON THE NEED THE BILL IS
BECAUSE IN ORDER FOR THOSE
ENTITIES TO BE ABLE TO DO SOME
KINDS OF FINANCING MEASURES THEY
NEED THE SUPPORT. NOW THIS A
THORGY DOES NOT REMOVE THE
ALREADY EXISTING RULES AROUND
FOR EXAMPLE WHAT TYPES OF
REVENUE MEASURES NEED VOTER
APPROVAL. SO ANY REVENUE MEASURE
THE NEEDS VOTER APPROVAL STILL
WOULD REQUIRE VOTER APPROVAL SO
WHEN I LOOK AT THE OPPOSITION
FOR EXAMPLE IT'S MOSTLY
CONCERNED THAT THERE MIGHT BE
REVENUE MEASURES THAT WOULD
AFFECT THEIR ABILITY TO BUILD
HOUSING. BUT THOSE OF COURSE ARE
YOU KNOW OBVIOUSLY GOING TO BE
YOU KNOW HASHED OUT IN THE LOCAL
AREA AND IF THE VOTERS DO NOT
APPROVE SUCH MEASURES THEY WILL
NOT A BE APPROVED- SO I JUST
WANTED TO MAKE THAT. PUT THAT
OUT FRONT DIRECTLY NOW
INTERESTINGLY. ON WHAT THE AND
WHAT MY WITNESS WILL SPEAK TO
THIS SOME OF THE AREAS NOW IN
THE STATE THAT HAVE. MOST
ENTHUSIASTICALLY. RESPONDED TO
MY OFFICE IN SUPPORT OF THIS
BILL OUR OUR RURAL AREAS ARE
AREAS LIKE THE MAMMOTH LAKES
AREA IN THE TRUCKEE AND TAHOE
AREA. BECAUSE OF THEIR IT IS
VERY DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO THE
INDIVIDUAL JURISDICTIONS TO BE
ABLE TO COME UP WITH ANY KIND OF
SUBSIDIES FOR AFFORDABLE
HOUSING. AND THEY ARE FACING A
REAL SERIOUS WORK FOR SHORTAGE
SO IN SOME BEFORE I LET MICE- MY
GOOD EXPERTS SPEAK MY WITNESSES
THIS BILL PURELY ENABLES.
EXISTING LOCAL GOVERNMENTS YOU
WANT TO COME TOGETHER TO CREATE
A REGIONAL HOUSING FINANCE
AUTHORITY TO HAVE THE AUTHORITY
TO- PURSUE SOME REVENUE MEASURES
AGAIN FOLLOWING ALL LOCAL RULES
AND ALL OTHER STATE LAWS. AND
WITH THAT I'D LIKE TO HAVE
CRISTINA KIND FROM MOUNTAIN
HOUSING COUNCIL OF TAHOE TRUCKEE
AREA AND MARINO WYANT FROM THE
CALIFORNIA HOUSING COSTS AND
CONSORTIUMS SPEAK. THANK YOU
SENATOR SKINNER. AND MY NAME IS
CHRIS. MY NAME IS CHRISTINA KIND
I AM THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR OF THE
MOUNTAIN HOUSING COUNCIL MANAGED
BY THE TAHOE TRUCKEE COMMUNITY
FOUNDATION WHICH IS A COALITION
THAT BRINGS TOGETHER TWENTY NINE
DIVERSE STAKEHOLDERS TO TACKLE
THE UNIQUE IMPRESSING HOUSING
CHALLENGES IN THE NORTH TAHOE
TRUCKEE REGION. I AM TESTIFYING
TODAY IN SUPPORT OF SB FOUR
FORTY ON BEHALF OF THE MEMBERS
OF THE MOUNTAIN HOUSING COUNCIL
WHICH INCLUDES THE TOWN OF
TRUCKEE COUNTIES A PLASTER IN
NEVADA THE TRUCKEE TAHOE WORK
FORCE HOUSING AGENCY WHICH IS
SEEKING TO BECOME A REGIONAL
HOUSING FINANCE AUTHORITY. THE
SIERRA BUSINESS COUNCIL AND THE
TAHOE TRUCKEE COMMUNITY
FOUNDATION THIS BILL SOLVES FOR
CRITICAL ISSUES OUR REGION HAS
BEEN STRUGGLING WITH AS WE
FORMULATE A REGIONAL HOUSING
FINANCE AUTHORITY. IT CAROL
CLARIFIES THE GOVERNMENT
STRUCTURE IT'S AUTHORITIES IN
ITS ABILITY TO BIND AND IF
AMENDED IT WOULD ALLOW THE
REGIONAL HOUSING FINANCE
AUTHORITIES TO SET A LOCAL IN MY
ELIGIBILITY THRESHOLD FOR
FINANCING PROJECTS THAT 150% OF
EMI. IN CONSULTATION WITH
HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT. OUR COMMUNITY HAS
BEEN INCREDIBLY PROACTIVE TO
ADDRESS OUR HOUSING CHALLENGES
AND THIS BILL WILL GIVE OUR
COMMUNITY AND OTHERS LIKE IT THE
TOOLS IT NEEDS TO FINANCE A
HOUSING OR COMMUNITY DESPERATELY
NEEDS. AND TO REDUCE BARRIERS IN
OUR RURAL REGION BIFURCATED BY
THREE COUNTY IS ONE TOWN AND
SEVENTEEN SPECIAL DISTRICTS.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP
SENATOR SKINNER. AND FOR ABBOTT
DANCING THIS CRITICAL HOUSING
SOLUTION AND THANKS FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY. TO SHARE
PERSPECTIVE TODAY. THANK YOU
THANK YOU I'M ONE WITH CALVIN
HOUSING CAN. AND I'M A PROUD TO
BE A SPONSOR THE BELL AND I'LL
BE REAL BRIEF I THINK- CRISTINA
REALLY ARTICULATED WHY THIS IS
NEEDED- MANY OF REGION'S ALREADY
THEY WANT TO PARTICIPATE IN
HOUSING THEY WANNA TRY TO FIND
NEW INNOVATIVE WAYS TO FINANCE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING- BUT THERE
ARE SOME LIMITATIONS TO EXISTING
JPA. SYSTEM AND REGIONAL HOUSING
FINANCE SYSTEM THAT EXISTS- A
WIN THE JURISDICTIONS COMING
TOGETHER HAVE UNUSUAL POWERS AND
THIS REALLY JUST GIVES THEM A
TOOL FOR FOLKS THAT WANT TO COME
TOGETHER AND RAISE THESE
INNOVATIVE- FINANCING TOOLS- WHO
WANT TO SELL TAX ARE WILLING TO
BRING THINGS BEFORE THE VOTERS
FOR APPROVAL. TO BE ABLE TO DO
SO- AND FOR THAT I DRIVE IT
THANK YOU ADDITIONAL FOLKS ARE
MUCH EXPRESS SUPPORT NAME

ABSOLUTELY ACCEPTED. MEMBERS IS
THERE ARE NOT OKAY I WITHDRAW
OUR OPPOSITION WHICH WAS BASED
ON THE EMINENT DOMAIN ISSUES
THANK YOU SO MUCH VERY GOOD TO
WORK WITH THE OFFICE. THANK YOU
. GOOD MORNING MAN I CAN A MADAM
CHAIR MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE
JENNIFER SECOND HALF CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS WE DO
HAVE AN OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED
POSITION ON THE BILL WE'VE BEEN
IN CONVERSATIONS WITH WITH
MARINA AS WELL AS THE AUTHOR
STAFF. TO SEE IF WE CAN FIND A
PATH FORWARD WE DO KNOW THAT
UNDER SB FOUR FORTY LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS CAN'T PLACE THESE
KINDS OF A BALLOT MEASURES
CURRENTLY ON THE BALLOT SIMILAR
TO WHAT WE IT. ARGUED WITH THE
PROPHET SITUATION LAST YEAR WITH
SB SIX SEVENTY NINE. OF BUT TO
BE CLEAR WE DO HAVE A
FUNDAMENTAL CONCERN WITH USING
HOUSING TO PAY FOR HOUSING
CONSTRUCTION ESPECIALLY FOR
CORPORATE DEVELOPERS ALSO WE
HAVE A CONCERN WITH. CONTINUING
TO. THE TREND OF CONVERTING A
SINGLE FAMILY ONE TO FOUR
HOUSING INTO CORPORATE OWNERSHIP
AS OPPOSED TO ALLOWING THOSE FOR
SINGLE FAMILY HOME OWNERSHIP
OPPORTUNITIES FOR GENERATIONAL
WEALTH. THOSE ARE THOSE ARE
GENERAL CONCERNS THAT WE HAVE
BUT WE ARE ENCOURAGED THAT
EMINENT DOMAIN POWERS ARE
REMOVED FROM THESE LOCAL
AGENCIES AS WELL AS THERE BEING
AN EXPANSION TO INCLUDE.
HOMEOWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
BEING INCLUDED AND THINGS THAT
CAN BE FUNDED WITH IT WE
CONTINUE HAVE A CUT TO HAVE A
CONCERN THAT. THE AGENCY IS NOT
LIMITED TO THE NUMBER OF TAXES
IT CAN IMPOSE ON PROPERTY OWNERS
AND IT CAN DO SO IN A LAYERED-
MANNER. WITH AN ENDING AMOUNT OF
TAXES THAT THEY CAN LEVY ON
HOMEOWNERS I'M WITHOUT I WON'T
BORE YOU WITH ANY ADDITIONAL
COMMENTS THAT WE HAVE THAT WE
WILL CONTINUE TO DIALOGUE WITH
THE AUTHOR AND WITH THE SPONSORS
AND SEE WHAT WE CAN DO TO. JUST
TO TRY TO BRIDGE THE GAP BUT
THOSE ARE GENERALLY OUR CONCERNS
AND WE'RE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS THANK YOU THANK YOU.
GOOD MORNING CHAIRMAN THE
COMMITTEE CORNELIUS BURKE WITH
THE CALIFORNIA BUILDING INDUSTRY
ASSOCIATION. ARE THE
HOMEBUILDING INDUSTRY. OUR
POLICIES AND HAVE A LETTER ON
FILE WE'RE ACTUALLY HOLES LESS
AMENDED. WE'VE BEEN ACTIVE
CONVERSATION WITH AUTHORS OFFICE
OF SPONSORS. HOWEVER A LOT OF
CONCERNS BUT OUR TOP CONCERN IS
THE DOUBLE TAXATION. THIS BILL
HAS IT. FOR EXAMPLE IF I WERE TO
SUBMIT. AN APPLICATION TO THE
CITY OF ROCKLAND FOR PROJECT I
MIGHT BE CHARGE AFFORDABLE
HOUSING FEES INCLUSIONARY FEES.
HYPOTHETICALLY BY THE WAY-
THAT'S NOT THE CASE- THIS NEW
AGENCY LET'S HEAR ROCK A
LUMINOUS. ROSE GOLD FOR HOUSING
AC WHICH CHARGE OF SAME FEES
UPON. BUILDER SO TRY TO WORK
THAT OUT TO MAKE SURE THAT. THIS
BILL DOES NOT IMPACT PRODUCTION.
AS KERR NOTED. TAXING HOUSING
PAY FOR NEW HOUSING IS BAD
PUBLIC POLICIES WHICH ONE ARE
WORKING OUT. TO MAKE SURE ALL.
RUN THE BALL IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION SOLVE OUR HOUSING
CRISIS. THANK YOU SO MUCH AND
THANK THE AUTHOR. AND THE
SPONSORS FOR THE ACTIVE
CONVERSATIONS. ROB THE. MYSTIC
WE GET THERE. THANK YOU. ANY
FOLKS EXPRESS HOW NAY ORGANISER
POSITION. NATALIE BOWS TO THE
CALIFORNIA ROUND ANDERSON
BECAUSE OF. THE YOU. WE'LL BRING
IT BACK TO COMMITTEE. ANY
QUESTIONS. MR PATTERSON SORRY
I'M TRYING NOT TO TALK AND
EVERYTHING- I DO YOU KNOW I
THINK ADDING. I'M CURIOUS HOW
THIS IS GONNA LOOK ON THE FLOOR
RIGHT NOW I MEAN I THINK. ONE
QUESTION I HAVE THOSE WHAT'S TO
STOP HOUSING FROM DOING TO
CITIES DOING A JPA. FOR THIS
PURPOSE. UNDER CURRENT LAW. FIRM
THEY CAN FORMER GPA THEY JUST
WOULDN'T HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO
DO ANY OF THE FINANCING. WHICH
BASICALLY ALERT DOESN'T GIVE
THEM ANY ABILITY TO REALLY
PURSUE AFFORDABLE HOUSING. WHEN
YOU SAY FINANCING YOU MEAN.
BLACK LIVES MATTER FOR ALCOHOL
AND PUTTING IT ON THE BALLOT TO.
AN INDIVIDUAL CITY CAN BUT AS WE
KNOW MOST FOR JURISDICTIONS ARE
RELATIVELY SMALL- AND- TO LIKE
IF YOU'RE A CITY OF FORTY
THOUSAND. TO GO AND TRY TO BOND
FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN YOUR
JUST ONE YOU KNOW JURISDICTION
NEITHER WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO. TO
SUPPORT A BOND THAT WOULD BE
ADEQUATE NOR I MEAN IT'S JUST SO
THAT'S KIND OF REGIONAL
COOPERATION IS JUST MUCH MORE
PRODUCTIVE IN THE ULTIMATE END
WOULD BE SANTA BONDING SAMPLE.
ARE A LESS BURDEN ON THE PER
PARCEL YOU KNOW THE END END
RESULT PLUS EVERYBODY AFFECTED
WOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
VOTE ON IT. YEAH AND IF THEY
DIDN'T WANT TO THEY COULD GO
DOWN. YEAH I LOVE THE FACT THAT
PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER. TO VOTE
ON TAXES. I'M ON BUT WE HAVE IN
MY FOR. SOUR ALREADY- OUT IT IS
REPRESENTING ROCKLAND TODAY- BUT
AS WE HAVE THE SLICK SOUTH
PLASTER- TRANSPORTATION PLANNING
AGENCY I REMEMBER THAT BUT THEY
ARE A GPA OF VARIOUS CITIES AND
THEY DO PUT BOND MEASURES ON THE
BALLOT- ALREADY SO. I'M JUST
TRYING TO OKAY I THINK I THINK
THE DIFFERENCE IS YES THEY CAN
NOW THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT THEY
WANT TO INCLUDE A SPECIAL
DISTRACT FOR EXAMPLE THE DOESN'T
HAVE THE SAME EQUAL POWERS AS
THE LOCAL AS THE GOVERNMENT SO
LIKE IN THE AMOUNT HOUSING-
EXAMPLE THEY HAVE ENTITIES THAT
DON'T SHARE THE SAME BINDING
POWERS INDIVIDUALLY AND SO IF
THEY WERE TO FORM A GPA. THEY
WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO THEN HAVE
TO COLLECTIVELY HAVE THOSE
POWERS BECAUSE ONE OF THEM MIGHT
NOT HAVE THAT INDIVIDUAL POWER.
AND THAT IS WHERE THIS REALLY
COMES INTO PLAY IS SAID THAT
WHEN YOU WHEN THEY'RE ENTITIES
WHO WANT TO JOIN TOGETHER WHO
MIGHT NOT ALL JUST BE CITIES
THAT BE OTHER- LOCAL AGENCIES
WHO WANT TO PARTICIPATE THEY CAN
ALL SHARE THE SAME THOSE POWERS
THAT ARE ARTICULATED IN THE
BILL. OKAY RIGHT. I THINK IT'LL
BE INTERESTING TO WATCH THIS IS
MOVES FOR IT I THINK RIGHT NOW
IN ITS CURRENT FORM I HAVE SOME
CONCERNS BUT- WILL BE PAYING
ATTENTION SO THANK YOU. NEITHER
