Blaming the state is a deflection for not coming up with any locally controlled solutions. If Pleasanton got a blank check for development and infrastructure from the state tomorrow, strong opposition for any new housing would remain.
Local governments have had control and could come up with creative solutions for housing. It is simply a choice not to. In fact, locally controlled restrictions for housing and development have only increased and exploratory proposals are rejected. Downtown is off-limits. East Pleasanton is off-limits. Single-family neighborhoods are off-limits. Any solution is a no even before coming to a vote.
Grant funding is available to nonprofit and public organizations that provide programming to Tri-Valley residents.
Applications are being accepted for the Dublin Human Services grants, Livermore and Pleasanton Housing and Human Services grants and the Pleasanton Community Grants Programs â Youth and Civic Arts. They will be accepted Nov. 30 through Jan. 18. Grant programs offered by the cities provide funding for a wide variety of human services, community development, housing, youth and civic arts projects and programs in the Tri- Valley.
A virtual informational grant workshop will be held Thu, Dec. 10, from 10 a.m. to noon. Attendance is mandatory to apply for funding.
