It's not too late to plan to join our Zoom call this Saturday, October 7th at 10 AM. Unless the governor takes action on some of our bills of interest, we won't have much to say about legislation. This meeting will be primarily for you to bring issues of common interest and local concerns to the meeting to discuss and get advice from other members.

It's not too late to watch Marc Verville's presentation at our last teleconference on the latest California population projections and how they differ from what was used in the massive sixth cycle state housing requirements.
