And now San Diego is getting national recognition for housing solutions. Last week I had the opportunity to sit down with Mene Ukueberuwa from the @WSJ to share the aggressive reforms I outlined at this year's State of the City and how we're now delivering on those promises. 5/5 https://t.co/MceTSZc8QO — PolitiTweet.org

On the housing front, @sdutIdeas noted that we're "having great success overcoming NIMBYism and building coalitions to boost density and build smartly." 4/5 https://t.co/9NTyct6stK — PolitiTweet.org

There's a lot going on in San Diego to fix the housing crisis from all angles. U-T columnist @MichaelSmolens notes "the flurry of activity in an area where solutions have been slow in coming and often stymied by political dispute." 3/5 https://t.co/rgZTYxjJEJ — PolitiTweet.org

Over the past two weeks, five major Housing SD reforms have won 9-0 votes from the City Council. ✅ Permanent Supportive Housing By-Right ✅ Transitional Housing Facilities By-Right ✅ Mixed-Use Zoning ✅ Moderate Income Housing Regulations ✅ Balboa/Morena Community Plans 2/5 — PolitiTweet.org

This year we're taking aggressive action to tackle our housing crisis and implement solutions to increase supply, boost affordability and focus future growth near transit centers. Momentum is building with several of my Housing SD reforms recently adopted by the City Council. 1/5 — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed spending time with a great group of leaders going through the SD Housing Policy Academy. They're part of an intensive learning experience to better understand the housing crisis and advance solutions to create more affordability for all San Diegans! https://t.co/6PTNYMqdvi — PolitiTweet.org

San Diego is honored to host @Weareunidosus - a conference that brings change-makers together to champion Latinos. This past week has shown we must come together to engage in deep conversations about race and inclusion - and reject hate in all its forms. https://t.co/ZbVEYbHCYX — PolitiTweet.org

Our city employees are constantly working to improve our quality of life and help build a better San Diego. They are the lifeblood of our city and make a difference every day. Thank you for all you do! #EmployeeAppreciationMonth https://t.co/2M2siQ8TR0 — PolitiTweet.org

San Diego is standing united with the people of Gilroy, El Paso and Dayton. These shooters are cowards and their sick, often racist views should be confined to the ash heap of history. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

At this year’s SOTC, I said we need to build more housing where we want to focus growth: by major transit stops. Today the CC voted unanimously to do just that by approving my proposed plan updates that will allow over 9K more homes near the future $2B Morena Blvd trolley! — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

We took another positive step yesterday to fix our housing crisis as the latest reform in our "Housing SD" plan won Council approval. New moderate-income regulations will provide important incentives to build housing that San Diegans can actually afford. https://t.co/LdiLFRNvro — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

We need to be more flexible to encourage more housing. Today the City Council voted to allow more mixed-use zones near transit centers to give more flexibility to mix employer and residential uses together in projects. This is another tool to increase affordability! — PolitiTweet.org

Brian told me he wouldn't be where he is today if it wasn’t for the support he found through our bridge shelter and PATH. Brian is proof that everyone is deserving of a second chance. I couldn't be prouder of him for making the most of his. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

Navy veteran Brian was homeless in San Diego for years. After being connected to PATH and staying in one of our 3 bridge shelters, he was finally able to get back on his feet. He now serves as a peer support specialist for other homeless individuals who are looking to do the same https://t.co/RrmG2Q6fDI — PolitiTweet.org

We will continue to be one of the safest cities in the country by attracting new talent to @SanDiegoPD. We've already shrunk police vacancies by 20% since last fall and continue to fill more. The safety of San Diegans will always be a top priority. https://t.co/4SlCTEsuNy — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

We’re making San Diego streets safer for all commuters. Yesterday crews started installing 200 new scooter corrals in Pacific Beach, Mission Beach and Ocean Beach similar to those already in Downtown. The corrals are important to effectively enforce our scooter laws. https://t.co/gzScN6uoih — PolitiTweet.org

This September @SanDiegoMag will feature women leading San Diego. Yesterday they stopped by to meet the many women leaders at City Hall making an impact for the residents they serve, including the female-majority City Council led by @ggomezd9. https://t.co/cIcoYuCqbh — PolitiTweet.org

This week we showed the past, present and future of San Diego starts with its people. We celebrated San Diego's 250th at the Presidio, saw dances from Vietnamese, Mexican and Portuguese groups, and raised a Kumeyaay Nation flag on their traditional homeland. Take a look. https://t.co/Rmn5iqK66v — PolitiTweet.org

Reducing homelessness is a responsibility we all share. TY @SDCALTRANS for doing your part to help those in need break the cycle of homelessness. https://t.co/bPWSHW5yDX — PolitiTweet.org

We know the way people get around SD continues to evolve and we embrace that, but public safety must come first. If the companies don’t follow the rules, each risks losing its permit and ability to operate in San Diego. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

.@BirdRide has violated geofencing requirements in nine different locations across the city, with @Lyft and @LimeBike doing so in seven locations. This is unacceptable. Each has been ordered to comply by July 29 or cease operating in San Diego. https://t.co/sPC6wXu9vP — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

The City has issued Notices of Violation to @LimeBike @BirdRide @SkipScooters & @Lyft for not complying with geofencing and other operating restrictions. Geofencing forces the devices to slow down in popular areas like Balboa Park and our boardwalks. https://t.co/pcPc2We759 — PolitiTweet.org

SD’s new scooter regulations are in place and we’re serious when it comes to enforcing rules that keep operators honest and users safe. We’re holding scooter companies accountable and bad actors will no longer be allowed to do business in San Diego. To that end … — PolitiTweet.org
