SAMPLE LETTER
Dear Senator Hill / Assembly Member Berman
Please oppose AB 725 by Buffy Wicks and Scott Wiener.
AB 725 by Buffy Wicks requires that 25% of future “RHNA” growth be shifted by the cities into stable neighborhoods that are currently home to “2 to 35 housing units per acre.” What does that mean? We believe assembly members who kept AB 725 alive didn’t realize that that acreage-based law they approved late last year means the takeover of single-family, duplex & small apartment neighborhoods — by luxury housing developers.
AB 725 requires NO affordable housing and creates unknowable consequences, overruning our solid, affordable communities statewide. It will harm, not help, efforts to create affordable housing.
Please oppose AB 725.
