BIG shoutout to Senator Scott Wiener and SPUR for cutting years and millions of dollars of cost from delivering fast bus projects. Proud to have been part of this permitting reform, and excited to be working on permitting reform for clean energy equipment installs full time!

SPUR created a database of local land use ballot measures that impact #housing production in California. Some of the 208 measures curb sprawl & protect open space. Others undermine housing production — & affordability — in infill locations. spur.org/planningbyball…

SPUR's commitment to safer streets and addressing California’s housing crisis is evident in our advocacy and co-sponsorship of key state bills.

I don’t normally repost press hits, but proud to be recognized as one of the “pros at ⁦SPUR⁩” about how I’m “amped” to see the rezoning phase of SF’s Housing Element be as aggressive as the 2023 policies to reduce Nimbyism and constraints. hoodline.com/2024/04/san-fr…

I went on KCBS 106.9 FM/740 AM radio to talk about why people who arbitrarily drive in dense cities should pay the *true price* of that choice, and why all money collected should be spent on public transit and making streets better for people who bike and walk.

“My friend was fatally struck by a car. These street safety changes could've saved her – and others” calmatters.org/commentary/202…

It's time to pass safe streets bills like SB 960 and SB 961. Because of unsafe street design, it is too dangerous to cross the street and too dangerous to get behind the wheel. TY Senator Scott Wiener for your leadership.

New podcast! This week we're featuring a SPUR forum on saving CA transit agencies from the fiscal cliff. A great intro to some of the moving pieces on transit advocacy and legislative success - bit.ly/49f1FZ1 Streetsblog USA Streetsblog SF Streetsblog CA

Tragedies like this one are a policy choice. We know what we have to do to prevent traffic deaths. We just need the courage to move away from our addiction to cars.

I have two bills (SB 960 & 961) that would make roads safer and slash the 4,000 traffic deaths CA faces each year.

Paris definitely wasn’t always this way. This is very recent. It wasn’t magic. It just took leadership. Your city could choose leadership too.
