      So @yimbyaction accepts donations from developers & has hired a professional lobbyist @louismirante to push #sb827. Grassroots or developer's surrogate driving developer's agenda?

      And what is your solution for lowering housing costs? Or at least slowing their rise?

      Maybe start by getting paid developer shills out of the game.

      Paid developer shills build buildings. We need more buildings. So we need developers. buildings currently have good profit margins because rents are too damn high!

      Developers will only build when the rents “are too damned high” and it’s not in their interest to build enough to lower rents. They control - and rents will stay “too damned high”

      If that were true, it would have always been true. And we wouldn't need restrictions on density, since they wouldn't build it anyway. https://www.apartmentlist.com/rentonomics/rent-growth-since-1960/ …

      None of this justifies statewide mandates removing local zoning & control. We have hundreds of units being built in our backyard.

      SF has existing zoning for 153,000 more units and is upzoning as we speak. Certainly don’t need YimbyTech shills to continue overreach to satisfy their big backers.

      Wiener is on record in Wired saying he just wants 8 unit apartments and duplexes allowed in SF. None of that requires statewide radical elimination of local democratic processes, zoning & general plans.https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wired.com/story/scott-weiner-california-housing-bill-cities/amp …

          Why are cities being blamed? Developers propose developments & even then they are not always appropriate. Granted some can be appropriate but are denied. However penalizing cities for what’s beyond their control is absurd accountability.

          In any case more MR is not the answer - it’s the problem!
