Senate Bill 827, an ambitious and sweeping bill aimed at addressing California's housing crisis, died in its first committee hearing this week. The legislation, by Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, would have overridden local controls, forcing California cities to allow apartment buildings of up to five stories to be built near existing transit stops. SB 827 was sponsored by a new organization, California YIMBY, which was founded only months before the legislation was introduced, and was supported by a diverse coalition that included developers, urban planners, some environmentalists, California Habitat for Humanity and the Chamber of Commerce. We sat down with Louis Mirante of CAYIMBY to talk about the bill's defeat and what happens next.
