AB 1907 – CEQA: Emergency Shelters: Supportive and Affordable Housing: Exemptions - SUPPORT

​The West Hollywood Chamber of Commerce strongly supports AB 1907 and we thank you for authoring it.
 
California is experiencing a housing crisis.  The statewide population of people experiencing homelessness has jumped nearly 17% since 2018, leaving another 150,000 California residents homeless.
 
In the face of a crisis the status quo is unacceptable.  Abusing CEQA to delay the construction of emergency shelters, supportive housing and affordable housing cannot be allowed to continue.
 
CEQA needs major reform.  AB 1907 addresses one of the most pressing needs.
 
We stand ready to assist you in passing AB 1907.
