My guess is that the rule is whether the rent is less than 35% of 110% of the county's AMI for a family the size of the max legal occupancy of the unit. See HSC 50052.5(a)(4).

I've tried to parse the text in SB35, etc., to figure out how a city should determine whether a non-deed-restricted home is affordable to those with moderate incomes. It's... not especially clear?

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...

We can't let the most important upzoning bill in the state's history die on the vine like this. @GavinNewsom, please step in and keep the conversation going. Every renter, every young person, everyone who cares about an equitable society needs your help.

Thread: Of all California housing stories, none are as odd as the 8-year saga of the @SunsetAndGordon apts in Hollywood. In 2015, historic preservationists won a lawsuit that led to permits getting revoked after tenants had moved in, evicting everyone. msn.com/en-us/money/realesta… 1/

I worry being unable to style 'font-size' cuts too heavily into the use cases for this.
I should try to write up my current thoughts -- not this week, but maybe next.

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?

Excuse the poor formatting, ordinary language, and distinct lack of formality, but here's my official letter thanking @Scott_Wiener and endorsing his bill #SB50 which I believe is our best chance for a more affordable, equitable, and inclusive California. #housing

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.)

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...
