Governor Newsom Signs the Affordable Homeownership Bonus Law, Circulate’s sponsored legislation to Build More Affordable Homes

Governor Newsom Signs the Affordable Homeownership Bonus Law, Circulate’s sponsored legislation to Build More Affordable Homes
SAN DIEGO – Today, Governor Newsom signed the Affordable Homeownership Bonus Law (AB 2433) into law. The new law, authored by Assemblymember David Alvarez and sponsored by Circulate Planning & Policy, will boost homeownership, create more affordable homes, and streamline housing approvals.
The law reforms California Bonus Law, a state law that streamlines approvals by granting benefits to projects that build affordable homes. Bonus law is already California’s most utilized housing incentive program. The reforms just enacted by AB 2433 will take this already effective program and make it even more conducive to building more affordable homes more quickly.
“We are grateful to Governor Newsom for continuing to improve Bonus Law, the most effective housing streamlining law in California,” said Colin Parent, CEO and General Counsel of Circulate. “By the numbers, legislation to enhance this statute have created more housing approvals than any other legislation Governor Newsom has signed during his two terms.”
“The Affordable Homeownership Bonus Law will make it easier to build homes that working families can purchase,” said Assemblymember David Alvarez. “I thank Governor Newsom for signing this bill and for his commitment to housing that people can actually afford. Families in the South Bay and across California are waiting to buy their first home, and this law will help give them that opportunity."
"AB 2433 strengthens and improves a powerful tool for producing mixed-income and 100% affordable housing developments, both rental and for-sale. The measure builds on past success by incentivizing developers to include below market-rate homes in their apartment buildings and subdivisions while enhancing feasibility. We are grateful to Assemblymember Alvarez for his commitment to ensuring this program can be implemented seamlessly at the local level to produce the housing we need,” said Michael Lane, State Policy Director with SPUR.
"Assembly Bill 2433 is a critical step toward expanding the supply of affordable housing in the San Diego region and across California,” said San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Chris Cate. “The bill addresses one of the most pressing challenges facing businesses in our region: attracting and retaining talent amid persistently high housing costs and a severe shortage of available homes. By expanding housing opportunities, this legislation helps strengthen our workforce and supports the long-term economic competitiveness of the San Diego region. We commend Assemblymember Alvarez for his leadership on this urgent issue and thank Governor Newsom for signing AB 2433 and delivering real advancements for housing affordability.”
“AB 2433 strengthens California’s Bonus Law by increasing incentives for affordable homes and streamlining project approvals. We applaud Governor Newsom for signing this important measure and thank Assemblymember Alvarez for his leadership,” said Inner City Law Center Policy Director, Mahdi Manji.
The bill’s reforms focus on boosting homeownership, creating more affordable homes, and streamlining approvals through the following policy reforms:
· Create More For-Sale Affordable Homes: Grants additional incentives to homebuilders creating deed-restricted for-sale homes for low- and moderate-income families.
· Deeply Affordable Housing: Ensures that homebuilders can deed-restrict their units at levels more affordable than the levels outlined in statute. This will ensure that 100 percent affordable homebuilders can access the full stacked bonus available under AB 1287.
· Streamlining Approvals: Streamlines the approval process for homebuilders to make sure that homes are approved more quickly and face less barriers. Policy reforms include making benefits automatic, reaffirming the non-discretionary approval of benefits, and clarifying that Bonus Law projects receive development certainty after their initial application.
California Bonus Law has strong roots in San Diego. Bonus Law has been on the books since 1979, but has only been widely effective in recent years, thanks in part to reforms born and bred in San Diego. Mayor Falconer adopted an enhanced bonus in the City of San Diego. In 2020, Circulate sponsored this policy for statewide adoption, with AB 2345 (Gonzalez). Circulate later worked with Assemblymember Alvarez to enact AB 1287 in 2023, which created an additional bonus. The adoption of AB 2433 is now the third successful enhancement to Bonus Law sponsored by Circulate.
Earlier this year, Circulate published a report “Win-Win Bonus,” which details how Bonus Law has become the most widely used law for housing streamlining in California. For example, in 2024, Bonus Law was used ten times more than all other streamlining laws combined. AB 2433 makes further enhancements to this successful law.
Circulate Planning & Policy sponsored AB 2433 with the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce, SPUR, the Inner City Law Center, and the Greenbelt Alliance.

Aria Grossman published Why Circulate Planning & Policy Supports Prop 45 in Blog 2026-08-03 12:31:04 -0700
Why Circulate Planning & Policy Supports Prop 45
Why Circulate Planning & Policy Supports Prop 45
California's cost of living is out of control because our outdated system for approving essential projects is too slow, too bureaucratic, and too costly—making it harder to build the housing, transit, and other infrastructure our communities depend on. These unnecessary delays drive up costs for families, businesses, and taxpayers while making California less affordable for everyone.
That's why Circulate supports Prop 45, the Building an Affordable California Act on the November 2026 ballot.
Prop 45 creates clear, enforceable timelines for environmental review, agency permitting, and judicial review for eligible projects. Rather than allowing projects to become trapped in years of bureaucratic delay and costly litigation, Prop 45 establishes accountability from application through final court decisions. By creating certainty throughout the approval process, the measure is expected to accelerate essential projects by 2 to 10 or more years, reducing costs and delivering benefits to Californians sooner.
Just as importantly, Prop 45 does not eliminate environmental review or weaken environmental protections. Every eligible project must still comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and all applicable federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations. The measure simply ensures that environmental review, permitting decisions, and any legal challenges are completed within reasonable, enforceable deadlines instead of dragging on indefinitely.
For too long, unnecessary delays have increased the cost of nearly everything Californians rely on. Permitting delays can add years to building timelines, forcing families to wait even longer to realize the benefits of affordable housing. Further, permitting delays alone add more than $75,000 to the cost of a new home. Prop 45 cuts unnecessary red tape, lowers project costs, and helps deliver the infrastructure Californians need faster. This means California will be able to more quickly deliver affordable housing that strengthens our communities and economy.
Prop 45 also preserves local control. Cities and counties retain their authority to approve or deny projects, and Californians continue to have meaningful opportunities to participate throughout the project approval process. The measure creates a process that is faster, fairer, and more predictable—not one that sacrifices accountability or environmental protections.
More than 145 organizations representing affordable housing, healthcare, water providers, agricultural producers, clean energy leaders, social justice advocates, and small business leaders support Prop 45 because California cannot afford to keep delaying the essential projects that improve quality of life and make our state more affordable.
California deserves a permitting system that protects the environment and delivers the infrastructure families, workers, businesses, and communities need.

Circulate Planning & Policy Statement on Transit Fare Increase
SAN DIEGO—Today, the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) voted to increase fares across the Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) and North County Transit District (NCTD) systems. Beginning on October 1, a standard one-way MTS trip will cost $3 and a monthly pass will cost $85. Riders eligible for Senior, Disabled, Medicare, and Youth discounted fares will pay $28 for a monthly pass.
“Making it more expensive to ride transit is never ideal, but this fare increase is necessary to maintain the levels of transit service that San Diego residents rely on,” said Aria Grossman, Policy Manager at Circulate Planning & Policy. “Raising fares was the only way to avoid reducing transit service, a trade off that transit riders time and time again say they prefer.”
The fare increases were adopted through an amendment to the Comprehensive Fare Ordinance. The amendment maintains long-standing fare affordability measures that Circulate has advocated for, like free transfers and fare capping. Using fare capping, riders can purchase individual daily rides, and never pay more than the cost of a daily and monthly pass. MTS and NCTD are also developing a Low-Income Fare Eligible (LIFE) Program, which will also maintain current fare levels for certain eligible riders.
Fares are set to increase one additional time on October 1, 2027. While necessary, these fare increases are only a temporary solution. MTS and NCTD will need to come up will additional revenue streams to address long-term deficits. As they seek long-term solutions, MTS and NCTD must identify funding measures that do not further burden riders, like ballot measures, seeking state operations funding, and creative advertising strategies.

San Diego City Council-Passed Budget to Advance Vision Zero in San Diego
SAN DIEGO—Today, the San Diego City Council advanced a FY 2027 budget that makes strong progress towards Vision Zero in San Diego. The budget includes funding for two of the Vision Zero Coalition’s longstanding priorities: fixing the Fatal 15 and implementing the Speed Management plan. The budget also includes funding to maintain the Multi-Modal Team, which the initial draft budget proposed eliminating in its entirety.
Thanks to the strong leadership of Council President LaCava, Councilmember Whitburn, and Councilmember Campillo, the budget adopted by the Council today maintains the Multi-Modal Team, a team of engineers dedicated to making San Diego streets safer.
"Traffic safety is a public safety issue,” said Councilmember Raul Campillo. “Safe streets keep people alive in my district every day. Today, my colleagues and I ensured that we don't go back on our commitment to safety for our young people, seniors, and everyone who moves through the city. I will continue fighting to ensure we are doing everything possible to keep our residents safe, especially our children as they travel to and from school."
“Street safety is public safety. Throughout this budget cycle I have been committed to funding Vision Zero,” said Council President Joe LaCava. “The safety measures included in today’s budget advance the shared priorities the coalition and I hold by making driving, walking, and cycling safer. The recent tragedies in my district are a painful, and constant reminder why we must continue making these critical investments.”
“As Chair of the City of San Diego's Active Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, I know how much families depend on safe, well-designed streets, whether they are biking to school, walking to a neighborhood park, or simply getting around their community”, said Councilmember Stephen Whitburn. “I am proud that today's budget restores the Multimodal Team and invests in the Fatal 15 and Speed Management Plan. Thank you to Circulate Planning & Policy, Families for Safe Streets, and the entire Vision Zero Coalition for their persistent advocacy and for never ceasing to make the case for the safety of San Diego families."
The budget includes the following highlights for traffic safety:
- $551,000 to make necessary improvements to the Fatal 15, the 15 deadliest intersections in the City.
- $2.4 million to implement the speed management plan, which would slow speeds near schools and in targeted safety corridors.
- $1.45 million to maintain the Multi-Modal Team within the Transportation Department. This team designs safety improvements like crosswalks, stop signs, and bike lanes that make our neighborhoods safer.
“This budget represents a strong commitment by the City Council to prioritize traffic safety,” said Aria Grossman, Policy Manager at Circulate Planning and Policy. “Making sure that our streets are safe for drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists is a core city responsibility. However, too often, the safety of those who walk and roll is treated as a nice to have. The budget passed today reflects a commitment to building a city that is safe for all road users.”
“I lost my husband to a preventable traffic crash, and through Families for Safe Streets San Diego I’ve met far too many families whose lives have been forever changed by traffic violence. Today’s decision is an investment in preventing future tragedies and making our streets safer for everyone. We’re grateful the City Council chose to preserve the team responsible for designing the safety improvements that help save lives,” said Laura Keenan, Co-Founder, Families for Safe Streets San Diego.
“The budget passed by the San Diego City Council affirms a fundamental truth, that traffic safety is public safety,” said Ian Hembree, Advocacy and Community Manager for the San Diego County Bicycle Coalition. “The residents of America’s Finest City deserve a transportation system that enables safe choices to get around. Kids riding their bikes to school, seniors walking to church, and adults traveling to work will be safer because of the priorities identified in this year’s budget.”
“We are deeply grateful to all the advocates that continue to demand safer streets, cleaner air, and a more livable San Diego,” Anar Salayev, Executive Director of BikeSD, shared. “A budget reflects our values, and I am glad to see that our City’s leaders value traffic safety. This last-minute decision to ensure the preservation of the multimodal team is significant and a step towards protecting our citizens. I look forward to seeing their good work around our beautiful city.”

Vision Zero Coalition Response to Mayor Gloria’s Proposed FY 2027 Budget
SAN DIEGO—The Vision Zero Coalition released the following statement in response to Mayor Gloria’s proposed FY 2027 budget.
“We are grateful for the Mayor’s commitment to fund the Fatal 15. However, one step forward does not enable one step back. The draft budget proposes to eliminate the Multimodal Program, the City Department responsible for planning and designing complete streets. This will bring progress on making San Diego streets safer to a stop. We call on the Mayor and City Council to rectify this issue and fund the Multimodal Program in the final FY 2027 budget.”
Despite a $10 million increase in the City’s transportation budget this year, the Mayor is proposing to eliminate all complete streets traffic engineers. These engineers plan and design street elements that make roads safer and flow better. This includes lane striping, traffic signal timing, crosswalks, and bike lanes.
More San Diegans die from fatal crashes every year than non-traffic related violent crimes. According to the Mayor, public safety is his Administration’s top priority. However, this budget cuts the entire team of engineers dedicated to making streets safer. Ultimately, San Diegans will suffer with their lives.
In 2015, the City of San Diego adopted a Vision Zero goal, committing to eliminating traffic deaths by 2025. Now in 2026, we have seen no progress. This action is another step back in the fight to prevent San Diego residents from dying while biking to work or walking to school.
