CEQA Reform Updates
Housing Action Coalition (HAC) Webinar
West Coast Land Use and Environment attorneys Daniel Golub, Genna Yarkin and Will Sterling will lead the policy discussion during a webinar hosted by the Housing Action Coalition (HAC) on new reforms to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Assembly Bill (AB) 130 and Senate Bill (SB) 131, signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom at the end of June, represent some of the most significant revisions to CEQA in recent history, and the changes include expanding CEQA exemptions to cover urban infill projects and constraining CEQA review for projects that narrowly fail to qualify for a CEQA exemption. During the webinar, which will also feature Assemblymember Buffy Wicks and Sen. Scott Wiener, the attorneys will break down the legislation and explain its implications for real estate developers and housing advocates.
