Former San Jose Councilor and Santa Clara County Supervisor candidate Johnny Khamis shares his perspective on construction delays

Former Councilman Johnny Khamis suggests CEQA reforms to keep businesses in California and address rising housing costs.

The bill, SB 7, will take effect immediately, as it was approved as a so-called emergency statute.

All but one candidate in the State Senate District 15 race appeared at a SVLG forum Friday to voice their views on key issues affecting voters.

The proposal is part of a broader effort to add 25,000 units—10,000 of them below-market-rate—to the city’s housing supply by 2022.

The complaint is part of a broader trend of CEQA litigation delaying desperately needed housing development throughout the state.

Is the California Environmental Quality Act an unfair tool for anti-development activists, or a developer scapegoat?

A landmark law designed to protect California’s environment has enabled profiteers to hold up critical projects.

San Jose Councilman Pierluigi Oliverio pens an open letter to Netflix, which is considering its options on where to expand operations, perhaps outside of Los Gatos. Oliverio makes his case for why the DVD and online movie streaming company should consider its neighbor, San Jose.

It saddens many tree huggers that the once heralded California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) is being so abused by NIMBY groups that simple justice, common sense and economic progress demands its reform.
