Hi All!

We were just informed that the  Resolution to oppose SB 79 unless amended to exempt cities with a certified Housing Element, our resolution CF25-0002-S19, is on the City Council agenda for Tuesday 08.19

If this passes, LA will be on record opposing SB 79 unless amended and the City will be able to lobby against it in Sacramento which gives our LA delegation to Sacramento some much needed support to oppose the bill.

Please reach out to your council office and ask your councilmember to vote yes on Resolution 25-0002-S19 and support higher density housing on our corridors not in our neighborhoods.  With a yes vote they are basically supporting the LA Planning Department’s Housing Element.  To be clear, a yes on this resolution means the city opposes SB 79 unless amended.

This vote is very important to all of us in LA.

Thank you,

Maria, Cindy, Jeff, Marc
