Around the Corner

While City Councils and Planning Commissions are in recess, there’s major statewide housing news:

• California is creating a new California Housing and Homelessness Agency (CHHA) to focus solely on housing and homelessness

• Newsom commits $101 million to jumpstart critical rebuilding efforts after LA Fires. The grant includes multiple funding streams, including the Multifamily Housing Program for low-income housing, supportive housing for those exiting homelessness, shovel-ready infill that replaces displaced housing, and transit-oriented development

The Week Ahead

City Councils and Planning Commissions are currently in recess. Updates will resume once meetings are back in session.

Week in Review
