The CAL ICH mission is to identify resources, benefits, and services to prevent and work toward ending homelessness in California. Senator Jones stated that under this bill &#8220;the person appointed to fill this new seat on the advisory committee will help bring an added and valuable perspective to the table as the Council works on innovative and thoughtful solutions to tackle homelessness.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: times new roman, serif;\">Senate Bill 6 extends affordable housing construction to office, retail, and parking zones so long as they are not adjacent to zones dedicated for industrial use. Assembly Bill 2011 creates a streamline approval process for 100% affordable housing projects in commercial zones. It also implements enhanced labor standards to ensure fair wages and benefits for laborers of these projects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: times new roman, serif;\">Together, SB 6 and AB 2011 remove regulations that had previously held up affordable housing legislation in the State Senate, preventing Californians from accessing housing they could afford. Senator Jones stated that &#8220;the bipartisanship, and teamwork from both developers and labor, demonstrated here today shows the urgency and commitment necessary to tackle the housing crisis and build more housing, faster. Developers, labor, and the state working together, this is how your legislature is supposed to work.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor Gavin Newsom, Senator Brian W.
