He also emphasized that just as important as passing new legislation is implementing laws already on the books. “A governor’s signature does not build new units,” he said.
Elliott said he was watching “with glee” the Biden administration’s $5 billion proposal as part of his infrastructure plan to encourage local governments to end exclusionary zoning and other practices. “We’re heading down the same path here,” Elliott said.
Elliott sidestepped another question, about whether the administration would seek to extend the statewide eviction moratorium, which is set to end June 30,

Gov. Gavin Newsom has repeatedly made housing affordability a top priority of his administration. But getting a good read on his thinking can be difficult.
During a panel discussion hosted by Capitol Weekly on Wednesday, Jason Elliott, Newsom’s top advisor on housing and homelessness, provided a glimpse. The big takeaway: California is millions of housing units short, and cities hold the key.
California home construction hits 13-year high. It s not enough to slow skyrocketing prices
Sacramento Bee 2 hrs ago Tony Bizjak and Phillip Reese, The Sacramento Bee
May 12 Housing construction in California jumped last year to the highest level since the Great Recession, topping 100,000 new units despite the COVID-19 pandemic and a historic state population decline.

Some 103,000 new housing units were built in 2020, an 8% jump from the previous year, according to data from the state Department of Finance demographics unit. Slightly more than half were single-family homes, slightly less than half were apartments.

Shares Adam Fowler
Guest Review: Synology sent me a new DiskStation to review after I’d acquired an older one myself to look at its ability to back up Microsoft 365 data (the updated name for Office 365). Being a Microsoft MVP in Office Apps and Services category, so I was very interested to see how it worked.
After reading up on it and seeing that it was a completely free piece of software available as part of owning a DiskStation, I was hoping this would be a good solution at an incredibly low price – buy your DiskStation and disks, some time to set it up, and you’re done. To me, that’s already a very appealing offering, along with Synology having a good reputation for maintaining and supporting their hardware several years on – which was proved by the 7-year-old DS1813+ I set up a few months ago.
