Our intern, Kaitlyn Cochran, is moving on to great things! We conducted an exit interview with her to share her experience with us and to celebrate her journey forward.

Last year we jumped the gun a little by announcing the adoption of the City of San Diego’s Middle Income Bonus program. It took a full year before the City Council implemented the policy with a required second reading, which they did this week.

Due to our advocacy, the program allows developments near transit to receive up to a 75 percent bonus above base density! This is a big deal, and it will allow substantially more homes in the City of San Diego.

Circulate signed onto coalition letters urging state and federal leadership to provide new emergency funding to California's transit agencies. Without more rescue funding this year, transit service will be reduced and risks permanent elimination.
