I think the difference was in how ADUs were counted, although I can't find enough detail in the 2015-2017 reports to be sure. (And ADUs were a majority of above-moderate in 2018, and I suspect in 2019 too.)

Fun fact: for 2015-2017, city counted some non-deed-restricted moderate-income homes. 2018-present, city counted all market-rate as above-moderate. This change kept Palo Alto from being subject to 10%-affordable SB35 streamlining.

Interesting part would be to somehow only make the warning if the alpha in the color for :visited is *different* from the alpha in the color for the corresponding :link style...

I think this is the argument that the answer to the poll should be 2px. (At least, that's why I think it should be 2px.)
Grade separation discussion running long? Who would have guessed?
Was it postponed to a date certain or uncertain?

When they did a similar one back in November I led with a tie between Booker (8/10) and Yang (8/10).
(There are also some questions where I don't have a strong opinion between the options and just randomly pick one, producing inconsistent results.)
1
I got Yang (15/20), Warren (12/20), Buttigieg (11/20), which seems not too surprising as far as policy agreement. And I can still choose not to support Yang because of his lack of relevant experience...

Does it count if the city ADU ordinance includes a provision saying that if any statement in the ordinance contradicts state law, then the state law overrides it, separably from the rest of the ordinance?
(I think this provision attempts to avoid GOV 65852.2 (a)(4).)

@adrianfine was encouraging "whoever might make the motion" to add wording that Molly Stump (city attorney) suggested, which would say that if there are conflicts with state law, then individual provisions of state law would override, rather than invalidating the whole ordinance.

Kou's extended discussion about ADUs that are too close to the street blocking people's visibility when making left or right turns was... interesting.
Would she ask those same questions about on-street parking?

I'm looking forward to another 2 years on the TAG.
And for the totally irrelevant trivia: in what is rather usual for me (given my height is pretty close to average for adult males in the US), I think I might be the tallest member of the TAG following this election.
Congrats to @cssrossen (@microsoft), @davidbaron (@mozilla) and @kennethrohde (@intel) for their election to the @w3ctag 👏👏👏

I say this (re low density suburbs comparison) because my stereotype of Bay Area suburbs is places with land use like this goo.gl/maps/MjUum5V5WXXp3RWg… (Mountain View, CA) whereas my stereotype of NYC suburbs is places with land use like this goo.gl/maps/NyFpq4PiifL3c1MU… (Rye Brook, NY).

The Bay Area has a natural advantage in the amount of energy needed for climate control, though.
Also, I'm not sure about the low-density suburbs thing. census.gov/dataviz/visualiza… is hard to read, but I think it shows pop-weighted density higher in SF at 25-40 miles out.

Wait, I thought we bought 2 persimmons at the farmer's market. Where did the other one go...?
Looks in bowl with pile of oranges...

I'm amused that the sunset times chart for this month is basically 17:[day of month], with occasional one minute errors. timeanddate.com/sun/usa/palo…
