State Sen. Scott Wiener believes a new bill will help ensure the efforts to build affordable homes won't run into more red tape in the years ahead.
Wiener said letting SB 35 expire would be unconscionable, especially because California is now required to build 2.5 million new homes in the next eight years to try to address the housing crisis.In San Francisco, 2,000 homes have been built with help from SB 35 and another 1,000 are in the process.
San Francisco Mayor London Breed endorsed the plan to extend SB 35, saying, in a statement, the streamlined permitting process has been crucial in getting new housing built more quickly in the city. She also said it's critical if the city plans to meet its required new housing goal in the next eight years.
