An affordability agenda

Peter Verbica outlines five steps local gov’t can take to make it possible for normal people to live here

  • Support dramatic CEQA reforms to dismantle burdens that artificially restrict housing supply.
  • Support an end to reformulated gas requirements.
  • Invest in water storage infrastructure, per the voter mandate of Proposition 1 in 2014 and other water infrastructure initiatives.
  • Restore selective timber harvesting, cattle grazing, prudent fire break management, and spring and watering pond development on public open space and park lands.
  • Immediately lower regional sales taxes to help alleviate the tax burden on residents.
