We submit our first draft Housing Element to @California_HCD for feedback and it's deemed in total compliance. And we're seeking a pro-housing designation with a plan to produce 150% of our RHNA obligation. The state is not the problem. Your city is the problem.

Food for thought: if your response to cities building bike infra is to say not everyone can bike, do you act that way about everything? 🍨 #GoOutside

Closing streets to cars is one of the best things a city can do but it often has a lot of opposition. Start with a single block. Reducing throughput improves the whole street, increases safety and the ⬆️ in ped activity will become your evidence for demand and doing more blocks.

I see this boy biking to school every day on the sidewalk of this street that many drivers speed down and I think about how I biked safely to school my whole life. Decades of transportation policy and infrastructure design failures have harmed youth. We have a lot of work to do.

Why does the media keep questioning if these shooters acted alone when we all know that half the Senate and a majority of the Supreme Court are accomplices to each of these mass shootings? #UvaldeMassacre

23 years ago my mother told me I had spat in the eye of God and shamed our family when I came out as gay, before kicking me out. Today my mother asked me to help her remove “Republican” from her voter registration. Never accept hate; but do give people space to grow and change.

How do approve 82,069 housing units when building a single public toilet is a three year bureaucratic nightmare?

If you aren’t riding the 20 minute @SFBayFerry from Oakland to SF for $4.50, you are missing out. Ditch your car, skip the bridge toll, forget parking, leave traffic headaches behind, and bring your bike! Also— snacks!!

That feeling when you spend 3 years working with community, staff & industry to develop a first-in-the-world zero NOx emission regulation, preside over a 6-hour public hearing, successfully move its approval, and get to sign the historic order. The time for Climate Action is now.

I’m in the Sky Train at PHX SkyHarbor Airport and literally every single person except me got off at the parking garage. I got one more stop, baby! — 44th & Washington for METRO LIGHT RAIL. 🚋🚋 😎

I have an important PSA about driving on Halloween. More children pedestrians die on this holiday than any other day of the year. Slow the f*ck down. #HappyHalloween

The best part about being an East Bay gay is that you can basically sit in a SF gay bar anonymously and enjoy basketball without anyone suspecting a thing.

Personally, I would have put a curb around this space and filled it with a couple trees and native plant species that attract birds and butterflies but then again I have been known to lack aptitude for the visionary, pro-parking concrete city aesthetic.
