OUR SINGLE-FAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS ARE ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK! Senate Bills 902 & 1120 and Assembly Bills 725 & 3040 will end single-family neighborhoods.

• SB 902 and SB 1120 will allow 10-unit apartments built in every neighborhood and all single-family lots to be split in half, to build multiple housing units on each half.

• AB 725 and AB 3040 will mandate that single-family neighborhoods be identified as locations for multi-family development and allow four dwellings built where one home stands now.

• In most cases, these changes are “by right”, meaning no community input, and no affordable units are required.

• No communities are exempt -- not gated, not hillside, not working-class or middle-class communities.

• These bills increase land speculation, gentrification, and displacement of vulnerable communities.

On MONDAY, August 10th, communities across the State will be sending an email to our State Senators and State Assembly members urging them to stand up for single-family neighborhoods and vote NO on SB 902, SB1120, AB 725 and AB 3040.

Join the coalition of diverse Southern California neighborhood groups from South LA, South Bay, the San Fernando Valley, Hollywood, The Wilshire District, Venice, Santa Monica, Calabasas, Altadena, Brentwood, Sunland-Tujunga, and beyond to fight these bills, . On MONDAY, August 10th, we will all act together! Please feel free to cut-and-paste this sample letter or use your own words: Please vote against SB 902, SB 1120, AB 725 and AB 3040. These laws, rushing toward approval in Sacramento in August, would allow: 10-unit luxury apartment buildings in every neighborhood... Single-family lots split in half to build multiple housing units on each half.... And four dwellings on single-family lots. Most allow destruction of stable existing housing — to build more expensive housing.
