Now our biggest remaining obstacle is our own success — falling rents are making it harder to finance new projects. So the city’s embarking on an eighth big swing: a revolving loan fund to support mixed-income/social housing and try to keep pushing rents down

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

Cities that build protected lanes for cyclists end up with safer roads for people on bikes and people in cars and on foot, a new study of 12 large metropolises revealed Wednesday.

A lot of YIMBYs in the region are opposed to this development. I think it may be worth asking why instead of assuming bad faith.

Today, something happened in the City of Sacramento. The beginning of something exciting. Language was filed with the city for a ballot measure to raise sales tax 0.5% to fund safe streets and transit infrastructure. It's gonna take everyone to get this passed, but together, I think we can do it. 🚲🚌

These may be marketed as "condos," but they're not. They're townhomes. And there's a reason why they cost almost a million dollars each, likely twice as much as if they were actual condos. @raders.bsky.social explains why our condo defect laws ruin everything: housesac.substack.com/p/sacramento...

Many Berkeley rents are back to 2018 prices. Is new housing the reason?
Rent prices for Berkeley’s older apartments have cooled significantly. Should thanks go to the city's housing boom?
