SB 79 implementation ordinance

Thanked the council for the May 7 compromise on SB 79 and submitted written comments arguing the 48 additional bus stops should have been included in the SB 79 map, noting SB 79 is a transit-oriented development bill, not a general housing bill.

Argued the city should ignore SB 79 and keep its own zoning laws, citing a four-story ADU in Claremont, and claimed deportations would lower rents.

Supported phased implementation with exemptions outside a one-mile walk from transit stops, and urged scrutiny of the ministerial approval process under SB 79.
