But if it is a meaningless sentiment that is backed by no real actual policy and in effect continues to support his existing constituents’ assets going up in value by $100K a year (or 1-2 teachers salaries per year), OK.

Is it okay to appreciate the words in a tweet without researching the entire voting record of the person who tweeted it?

Was reading this in the context of the earlier 827 conversation, which by the way, if your main beef with it is not enough upzoning down there and too much upzoning in SF/Oakland, Khanna and Eshoo’s districts are exactly where you’d want to see some sig upzoning

So you're saying 827 doesn't upzone many of the places where significant upzoning is needed?

What is “needed”? It should be near existing transit infrastructure bc other places wouldn’t be able to handle it. But if the argument is higher AMI census tracts w jobs/housing imbalance versus lower AMI census tracts then Eshoo & Khanna’s districts are key.

I mean I don't think you're interested in what I think is needed. I thought you were saying that *you* think more is needed in the south bay, but 827 doesn't provide it, at least not as much as it should

I think you should go and hang out in the South Bay in public meetings and observe the very noticeable differences in culture, assumptions, political feasibility, etc. things that one may take for granted in SF, like consensus around rent control, are actively derided down there

Isn't that the whole premise of 827? That local communities can't be trusted to do good things so the state has to step in?

Yet you implied it doesn't upzone the south bay enough (unless I misunderstood?)https://twitter.com/kimmaicutler/status/981063325696933888 …

I would like to see more density in the peninsula & South Bay. Some parts of it have decent infrastructure for it w Caltrain/BART but other parts of Khanna’s district don’t have mass transit.

But also, I don’t think the scare maps of SF are really accurate bc SB 827 focuses on min heights, parking reqs and SF hasn’t generally permitted demolishing existing housing for new housing at any kind of scale absent a 2-3 large projects in the last decade or so.

maybe I'm just tired or can't think about this clearly because of my own experience, but I don't understand what point you're making at all. You are for sb 827 right?

I’m for figuring out whatever version of large scale transit upzoning that produces millions of units of housing in the short to medium term in CA that incorporates lots of feedback on making it regionally equitable.
