"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

In fact, this wasn’t even a particularly bad flood. Deborah Crivello, the manager of Le Mar and a resident of the park next door, described it more as a “scare” than a flood, since the water lasted for a few days, not weeks, this time and collected only in a few low-lying spots, rather than “filling it [the park] up.” Another resident called the flooding “puddles” compared to other times.

She had recently moved in to the park next door, although she was not yet manager at Le Mar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police pounding on her door woke Crivello up in the middle of the night. She stood there in pajamas, her husband and baby still asleep inside, as police officers yelled at her family to get out of their house. Grease and oil from the junkyard down the street was mixed in with the water, and it was dangerous to stay. They had five minutes to gather their things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I opened the door and my stairs were floating,” she said. She carried her daughter on her back as she waded through waist-deep water. The water remained for two weeks, during which she stayed at the nearby VA. When she returned, she found that her car had been ruined; the water had been up to its windows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She remembers being frustrated that no one had explained the risk of flooding in the area to her before that night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wouldn’t have moved in if I’d knew that was going to happen.” She laughed. “But now I know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what exactly is there to know? Why is it, that in a time of regional drought, this neighborhood has experienced flooding at such a rate that “puddle” has become appropriate shorthand for 2 feet of standing water?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In order to understand Le Mar’s situation it is important to zoom out. This rectangle of asphalt wedged between the wetlands and a busy highway sits at the intersection of a number of environmental and governmental forces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The topography of Le Mar makes it particularly vulnerable to flooding. The mobile home park is one of the few developed areas of Redwood City that has been classified as a “special flood hazard area” by FEMA.

This means an apartment building or duplex may not be allowed to be next to a single-family home. Or that there may be restrictions on where you can live if your house is a mobile home rather than a permanent building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>William Chui, an assistant planner at the Community Development Department of Redwood City, said he was not sure if the mobile home parks were built in this area particularly because of zoning, or if the zoning laws were written because the parks were already there. He said the city could not do much to tell owners of private property to modify the land to reduce the effects of flooding, unless there was a development project planned. The exception to that would be the canal, which is government property.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city ensures the canal is dredged every year so that the water flows freely toward the bay, and can store as much as possible. It has also added sand bags and concrete blocks between the edge of the canal and the park to mitigate overflow, according to Ramana Chinnakotla, Redwood City’s public works director. He said the city also has gas-powered pumps, which are far more effective than the electric pumps Le Mar currently owns, to propel water flowing into the park back into the canal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crivello credits the reduction in flooding over the last few years to these efforts, adding that she was very grateful after a decade and a half of residents dealing with the flooding on their own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But these city measures are not always enough, as Feb. 7 made clear. Although the pumps help prevent smaller floods, Crivello said that when the water is really high and the canal is overflowing into the park, pumping water back into the canal creates an unproductive cycle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s just pouring into the canal to pour it back out [into the park],” she said. She is disappointed that other measures she had been promised, including a steel fence that would prevent water from getting into the park, have not been implemented.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chinnakotla said this was a valid concern, which was why the city was working toward a more “permanent solution.” He said the steel fence was scrapped because it would have taken too much time to get approved, and that he is instead working toward building a storage area for the water to flow into before it makes its way to the bay. He said he has been working on this idea for years, and is currently waiting for it to be approved so he can move forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, most Le Mar residents seem to know little about why the flooding continues year after year. Raul Acosta, 18, whose family has lived in Le Mar his entire life, said that neighbors discuss property damage, but never why it happens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People only really talk about it in the first few days that it happens, then it’s business as usual, I guess,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So it is today. As I talk to Acosta, he keeps an eye on his little sister as she twirls around her front yard in a princess dress, playing with the toys that all had to be replaced two years ago.

She had recently moved in to the park next door, although she was not yet manager at Le Mar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police pounding on her door woke Crivello up in the middle of the night. She stood there in pajamas, her husband and baby still asleep inside, as police officers yelled at her family to get out of their house. Grease and oil from the junkyard down the street was mixed in with the water, and it was dangerous to stay. They had five minutes to gather their things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I opened the door and my stairs were floating,” she said. She carried her daughter on her back as she waded through waist-deep water. The water remained for two weeks, during which she stayed at the nearby VA. When she returned, she found that her car had been ruined; the water had been up to its windows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She remembers being frustrated that no one had explained the risk of flooding in the area to her before that night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wouldn’t have moved in if I’d knew that was going to happen.” She laughed. “But now I know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what exactly is there to know? Why is it, that in a time of regional drought, this neighborhood has experienced flooding at such a rate that “puddle” has become appropriate shorthand for 2 feet of standing water?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In order to understand Le Mar’s situation it is important to zoom out. This rectangle of asphalt wedged between the wetlands and a busy highway sits at the intersection of a number of environmental and governmental forces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The topography of Le Mar makes it particularly vulnerable to flooding. The mobile home park is one of the few developed areas of Redwood City that has been classified as a “special flood hazard area” by FEMA.

Or so people have been told.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of our Bay Curious listeners, Scott Sharpe, couldn’t help but notice how often that date popped up when he and his wife went house hunting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They ended up buying a condo on Grant Avenue in North Beach and the records for his building say — no surprise — 1906.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott knew about the earthquake and the fires. But he also had heard rumors that his building was older than its 1906 date.

Was it a boardinghouse for sailors?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Let’s find out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On April 18, 1906, a massive earthquake tore through roughly 300 miles up and down the San Andreas Fault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The epicenter of this enormous temblor was near San Francisco. It brought down buildings, and the fires it caused burned for three days. By the end of the nightmare, roughly 80 percent of the most populated part of the city was destroyed. An estimated 28,000 buildings in the burn area of North Beach, the downtown area, along Van Ness Avenue and the Mission were lost. A quarter-million people, more than half the city, were homeless. On top of all that misery, while exact numbers remain unknown, around 3,000 people are thought to have died. Numbers remain hard to determine, but math leads us to believe that 7,000 buildings might have survived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11475946\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11475946\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-520x390.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco archivist Susan Goldstein looking through the Sanborn Fire Insurance maps. \u003ccite>(Penny Nelson/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Another loss from the quake and fires — a loss that we still feel today: documents. Volumes of building records, deeds to homes, contracts, parcel histories and the like went up in smoke those three days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, much of the historic part of the city received a second birthday: 1906. While San Francisco was formally incorporated April 15, 1850, much of it was destroyed 56 years later, on April 18, 19 and 20. But with money in the bank and bodies ready to work, all the rebuilding was a rebirth of sorts. And a new date of 1906 was slapped on much of the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That gets us back to the search for an answer to Scott’s question, and a trip to the city history center and archives on the sixth floor of the main branch of the San Francisco Public Library.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Make no mistake. This is no musty, dank setup. These archives, just like the library itself, are light and airy, and accessible. City archivist Susan Goldstein and her crew are there to help me every step of the way, and I ask her Scott’s first question: What proportion of the city’s homes are older than their build date of 1906?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We speculate that roughly 7,000 buildings survived. She explains that this question is one that will take quite a while as it will require serious data digging and compilation, as well as follow-up on the status of those 7,000 or so homes and buildings. It’s doable, but requires more time that Bay Curious can invest. But we can dig into Scott’s second question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Is his building older than its 1906 “birthdate”?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I ask Goldstein how we research this, given that the city’s documents burned in the fires.

But not all of them. While documents about ownership, deeds and the like may have burned, there are many other types of records that were distributed around town in different places that did survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldstein said, “For example, there’s a wealth of information in the water tap records.” Those are the ledgers dating back to the mid-19\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> century that document when and where water was hooked up to a home or building. From that we learn the names associated with a building, about the buildings, and interestingly the order in which buildings were put in place. So while they may not be in order on any given street, the water hookups, or water tap records, reveal the order in which the houses or buildings appear on a street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those ledgers are at the library in hard copy and digitized. The digitized version offers photos of the ledgers, so either way it’s a trip back in time with a glimpse at the old-fashioned handwriting and the ink blots on the pages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The archives also have Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps. With colorful drawings, they paint a picture of what was on any given street and even the outlines of the buildings and hints at the interiors. The building materials used are included.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are block books that show an entire block’s buildings. There are loads of maps, as well as 44,000 photos of old San Francisco that did NOT burn. So, the myth that all the documents burned is dispelled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With that, we know we have different options for finding out what was on Scott’s place in 1906.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldstein is looking through the water tap records, through some cross-street reference guides, and a few other spots. No luck. She and her colleagues remember that Grant Avenue used to go by the name Dupont — and that leads to success.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldstein then turns to the Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, which end up being a goldmine and show us what, in 1905, was on the spot where Scott lives now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, you know what? It does not look like what’s there now. But that’s cool, too! The building footprint today is different from 1905, when the Sanborn Fire Maps were drawn. What’s there on the page shows what looks like mixed-use strip of shops with flats on top. And we can almost see in our mind’s eye what was there. There are three shops joined together like a strip mall, and then a second-floor flat for each shop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the maps even give us clues about the shop’s business. One was a furniture repair shop. That was easy — it said so on the map. Next to that was what may have been a bakery or a potter’s shop because the oven was so large it shows up on the map. And where Scott’s building is, it’s harder to tell. But atop each shop is a flat with two large rooms. Nothing looks like the rooms that Scott described for the boardinghouse rooms in which he imagined the sailors stayed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, sorry, Scott. From what the Fire Insurance maps show, it doesn’t appear that your building predates the fire. Perhaps it really was built in the flurry of construction in 1906. It was a popular birthdate, after all!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One more thing. Archivist Susan Goldstein invites anyone curious to learn more about the history of a house or building to come down to the sixth floor of San Francisco’s Main Library on Larkin Street and start digging. It’s there for the public to enjoy!\u003c/p>\n\n",

It brought down buildings, and the fires it caused burned for three days. By the end of the nightmare, roughly 80 percent of the most populated part of the city was destroyed. An estimated 28,000 buildings in the burn area of North Beach, the downtown area, along Van Ness Avenue and the Mission were lost. A quarter-million people, more than half the city, were homeless. On top of all that misery, while exact numbers remain unknown, around 3,000 people are thought to have died. Numbers remain hard to determine, but math leads us to believe that 7,000 buildings might have survived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11475946\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11475946\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313-520x390.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_1313.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco archivist Susan Goldstein looking through the Sanborn Fire Insurance maps. \u003ccite>(Penny Nelson/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Another loss from the quake and fires — a loss that we still feel today: documents. Volumes of building records, deeds to homes, contracts, parcel histories and the like went up in smoke those three days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, much of the historic part of the city received a second birthday: 1906. While San Francisco was formally incorporated April 15, 1850, much of it was destroyed 56 years later, on April 18, 19 and 20. But with money in the bank and bodies ready to work, all the rebuilding was a rebirth of sorts. And a new date of 1906 was slapped on much of the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That gets us back to the search for an answer to Scott’s question, and a trip to the city history center and archives on the sixth floor of the main branch of the San Francisco Public Library.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Make no mistake. This is no musty, dank setup. These archives, just like the library itself, are light and airy, and accessible. City archivist Susan Goldstein and her crew are there to help me every step of the way, and I ask her Scott’s first question: What proportion of the city’s homes are older than their build date of 1906?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We speculate that roughly 7,000 buildings survived. She explains that this question is one that will take quite a while as it will require serious data digging and compilation, as well as follow-up on the status of those 7,000 or so homes and buildings. It’s doable, but requires more time that Bay Curious can invest. But we can dig into Scott’s second question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Is his building older than its 1906 “birthdate”?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I ask Goldstein how we research this, given that the city’s documents burned in the fires. This is when she offers a golden nugget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People think we’ve lost all the records.

But not all of them. While documents about ownership, deeds and the like may have burned, there are many other types of records that were distributed around town in different places that did survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldstein said, “For example, there’s a wealth of information in the water tap records.” Those are the ledgers dating back to the mid-19\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> century that document when and where water was hooked up to a home or building. From that we learn the names associated with a building, about the buildings, and interestingly the order in which buildings were put in place. So while they may not be in order on any given street, the water hookups, or water tap records, reveal the order in which the houses or buildings appear on a street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those ledgers are at the library in hard copy and digitized. The digitized version offers photos of the ledgers, so either way it’s a trip back in time with a glimpse at the old-fashioned handwriting and the ink blots on the pages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The archives also have Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps. With colorful drawings, they paint a picture of what was on any given street and even the outlines of the buildings and hints at the interiors. The building materials used are included.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are block books that show an entire block’s buildings. There are loads of maps, as well as 44,000 photos of old San Francisco that did NOT burn. So, the myth that all the documents burned is dispelled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With that, we know we have different options for finding out what was on Scott’s place in 1906.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldstein is looking through the water tap records, through some cross-street reference guides, and a few other spots. No luck. She and her colleagues remember that Grant Avenue used to go by the name Dupont — and that leads to success.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Goldstein then turns to the Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, which end up being a goldmine and show us what, in 1905, was on the spot where Scott lives now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, you know what? It does not look like what’s there now. But that’s cool, too! The building footprint today is different from 1905, when the Sanborn Fire Maps were drawn. What’s there on the page shows what looks like mixed-use strip of shops with flats on top. And we can almost see in our mind’s eye what was there. There are three shops joined together like a strip mall, and then a second-floor flat for each shop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the maps even give us clues about the shop’s business. One was a furniture repair shop. That was easy — it said so on the map. Next to that was what may have been a bakery or a potter’s shop because the oven was so large it shows up on the map. And where Scott’s building is, it’s harder to tell. But atop each shop is a flat with two large rooms. Nothing looks like the rooms that Scott described for the boardinghouse rooms in which he imagined the sailors stayed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, sorry, Scott. From what the Fire Insurance maps show, it doesn’t appear that your building predates the fire. Perhaps it really was built in the flurry of construction in 1906. It was a popular birthdate, after all!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Initially, 10 percent of units will be designated for low-income earners, 4 percent for moderate-income earners and another 4 percent for middle-class residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The requirement will remain at 25 percent affordable in the Mission and Tenderloin neighborhoods, where gentrification has been particularly intense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Affordability requirements will also be higher for buildings that are for sale rather than rentals, and for developers who opt to build affordable units off-site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken Tray of the United Educators of San Francisco, which has advocated for both low- and middle-income housing, said the deal will help keep educators in the communities where they work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We range from people in the $30,000 range, all the way up to old people like me who spent their careers here, now pushing $90,000,” Tray said. “So most of our folks are covered by this agreement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gen Fujioka of the Chinatown Community Development Center said the Breed-Safai bill would have reduced the percentage of low-income units too dramatically at a time when federal funding for subsidized housing is likely to be cut.

Initially, 10 percent of units will be designated for low-income earners, 4 percent for moderate-income earners and another 4 percent for middle-class residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The requirement will remain at 25 percent affordable in the Mission and Tenderloin neighborhoods, where gentrification has been particularly intense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Affordability requirements will also be higher for buildings that are for sale rather than rentals, and for developers who opt to build affordable units off-site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken Tray of the United Educators of San Francisco, which has advocated for both low- and middle-income housing, said the deal will help keep educators in the communities where they work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We range from people in the $30,000 range, all the way up to old people like me who spent their careers here, now pushing $90,000,” Tray said. “So most of our folks are covered by this agreement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gen Fujioka of the Chinatown Community Development Center said the Breed-Safai bill would have reduced the percentage of low-income units too dramatically at a time when federal funding for subsidized housing is likely to be cut. He said the compromise will help slow the exodus of blue-collar workers out of San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Laura Clark of the housing advocacy group YIMBY Action said requiring developers to designate a certain percentage of units as affordable is not an adequate solution to the housing crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s just a drop in the bucket, compared to the need,” Clark said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal is expected to go before the Land Use and Transportation Committee and then to the full Board of Supervisors early next week.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>State lawmakers have introduced more than 130 bills this legislative session to try to solve California’s housing affordability crisis, proposing everything from 150 square-foot \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB352\">apartments\u003c/a> to \u003ca href=\"http://sd24.senate.ca.gov/news/2016-12-06-senate-introduces-%E2%80%9Ccalifornia-rebuild%E2%80%9D-infrastructure-proposals\">a $3 billion affordable housing bond\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But while many see the flurry of political activity as an encouraging sign, for millions of younger Californians, all the talk of infill development, CEQA reform and developer fees can be reduced to one simple question:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Will any of this stuff finally help me move out of my parents’ place?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly a decade removed from the depths of the Great Recession, a staggering 38 percent of California’s 18- to 34-year-olds still live with their parents, according to U.S. Census data. That’s roughly 3.6 million people stuck at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Think of it this way: If “unlaunched” California millennials formed their own state, they would be entitled to more electoral votes than Connecticut, Iowa or Utah. If they formed their own city, it would be the third largest in the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the trend appears to have accelerated over the past few years. Many researchers expected that the “boomerangers” of the recession would flee their parents’ domiciles once the economy recovered and the labor market started roaring again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But California has its lowest unemployment rate since 2007 -- and millennials still aren’t moving out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would have thought and did think for a long time that as the labor market got better, more young adults would get jobs and the share of them living with their parents would start declining,” says Richard Fry, a senior researcher at the Pew Research Center. “But I’m increasingly thinking this is not a cyclical phenomenon.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what exactly is keeping California’s millennials from breaking free of their parents? Part of the explanation is intuitive: California’s skyrocketing housing costs. But digging deeper into who exactly these stay-at-homers are, and how they’re different from younger adults from previous generations, shows other forces are also at play.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Wasn’t it common for previous generations of young Californians to live at home for a while?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>No -- not really.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least not compared to today, or to the rest of the country at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"//e.infogr.am/generation_unlaunched?src=embed\" title=\"Generation Unlaunched\" width=\"800\" height=\"733\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1980, when baby boomers were young adults, only 1 in 5 younger Californians lived with their parents. That fraction ticked up only marginally for more than two decades and roughly kept pace with what was happening in the rest of the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But since the turn of the millennium, the ranks of the stay-at-home have increased dramatically.

It was last used for a bail bond company. (The Berkeley jail is about two blocks away). That smaller building was moved to an adjoining lot on Saturday to allow the duplex to be set in the back. It will be moved back to its original spot at the front of the lot on Monday, said Belser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Belser and White plan to fix up both buildings. The duplex will be affordable, meaning it will rent for 50 percent of the AMI. The apartments will be rent-controlled. The smaller building is grandfathered in for a commercial use, said Belser.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh49ggoOgLQ\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Phil Joy of Phil Joy Housemoving and Leveling oversaw the move and it was delicately done. The house was put on a trailer hitched to a big truck. The house was remarkably agile: When it got too close to trees, the driver adjusted the house’s position. When a car was unexpectedly parked on University Avenue (despite dozens of “no parking” signs that had been up for days), the truck was able to pull the house closer to the center of the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Getting the house on to its final resting place was more difficult. The soil on the lot was soft, so Joy’s workers had to lay metal planks of the ground to prevent the wheels of the trailer from sinking into the ground. And the truck pulling the house had little room to maneuver and it appeared difficult at times to keep the house on the right track. But it was finally set down, more than three hours after it left its old home on Berkeley Way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11450600\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1280px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835.jpeg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11450600\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835.jpeg 1280w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835-160x120.jpeg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835-800x600.jpeg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835-1020x765.jpeg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835-1180x885.jpeg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835-960x720.jpeg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835-240x180.jpeg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835-375x281.jpeg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/05/IMG_8835-520x390.jpeg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dmitri Belser (r) with his partner Tom White (c) and their son Sebastian Belser as the house makes its way through Berkeley. \u003ccite>(Frances Dinkelspiel/Berkelyside)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Belser said moving the house was “insanity,” but it is clear he and White are hooked on the experience.

Richmond and Mountain View were the only two cities that passed tenant-supported measures. The CAA quickly filed for preliminary injunctions against both measures, arguing that they're unconstitutional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judges in Contra Costa and Santa Clara counties denied the association's requests, allowing Richmond and Mountain View to move forward with implementing their rent control measures while the cases moved through the courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The association looked at the judges' decisions in Mountain View and Richmond, and we basically decided that we were going to hold off on those particular lawsuits,\" Bannon said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Richmond and Mountain View roll out their rent control and eviction programs, there are still details and protocols that need to be developed by their respective rent boards. Bannon said he hopes CAA can be an active partner in creating some of those regulations, and that CAA will monitor the rollouts closely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bannon wouldn't say whether CAA plans to challenge other cities that could pass similar rent control laws, adding those decisions will be determined on an individual basis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CAA is currently fighting against rent control in at least two other Bay Area cities. The group has been active in helping fight a measure in Santa Rosa that voters will consider in June. CAA is also assisting an opposition group in Pacifica, which is collecting signatures for a referendum to repeal temporary rent control and eviction measures the City Council \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/04/12/pacifica-city-council-approves-temporary-rent-control-ordinance/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">passed last month\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If rent control opponents are able to get the roughly 2,000 signatures for a referendum by May 24, it would repeal the temporary renter protections that are supposed to become effective on that date and allow Pacifica landlords to raise rents or evict tenants until rent control is passed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think there’s much question about the fact that they’ll get the signatures,\" said Thursday Roberts, a member of the tenants advocate group Fair Rents 4 Pacifica.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the Pacifica City Council passed the temporary rent control and eviction laws, tenants have reported \"exorbitant rent increases,\" according to a \u003ca href=\"http://pacificacityca.iqm2.com/Citizens/FileOpen.aspx?Type=14&ID=1143&Inline=True\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">city staff report\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s just shocking to see so many people in jeopardy,\" Roberts said. \"There’s no place to go in Pacifica. There’s no place to go in the Bay Area.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Monday night, the Pacifica City Council rejected an emergency ordinance to provide rent and eviction protections immediately. But the council also voted to place rent control on a special ballot this November.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Bannon said he hopes CAA can be an active partner in creating some of those regulations, and that CAA will monitor the rollouts closely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bannon wouldn't say whether CAA plans to challenge other cities that could pass similar rent control laws, adding those decisions will be determined on an individual basis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CAA is currently fighting against rent control in at least two other Bay Area cities. The group has been active in helping fight a measure in Santa Rosa that voters will consider in June. CAA is also assisting an opposition group in Pacifica, which is collecting signatures for a referendum to repeal temporary rent control and eviction measures the City Council \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/04/12/pacifica-city-council-approves-temporary-rent-control-ordinance/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">passed last month\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If rent control opponents are able to get the roughly 2,000 signatures for a referendum by May 24, it would repeal the temporary renter protections that are supposed to become effective on that date and allow Pacifica landlords to raise rents or evict tenants until rent control is passed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think there’s much question about the fact that they’ll get the signatures,\" said Thursday Roberts, a member of the tenants advocate group Fair Rents 4 Pacifica.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the Pacifica City Council passed the temporary rent control and eviction laws, tenants have reported \"exorbitant rent increases,\" according to a \u003ca href=\"http://pacificacityca.iqm2.com/Citizens/FileOpen.aspx?Type=14&ID=1143&Inline=True\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">city staff report\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s just shocking to see so many people in jeopardy,\" Roberts said. \"There’s no place to go in Pacifica.
