His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

She approaches race and equity not as a beat, but as a fundamental lens for all investigative and explanatory reporting.\r\n\r\nSandhya covered policing, housing, social justice movements, and the shifting demographics of cities and suburbs.\r\n\r\nShe was the creator and co-host of the podcast American Suburb, about the transformation of suburbia into the most diverse space in American life. She was the editor for Truth Be Told, an advice show for and by people of color. \r\n\r\nHer stories about race, space, and belonging were part of KQED's So Well Spoken project, which won RNDTA's Kaleidoscope award, honoring outstanding achievements in the coverage of diversity.\r\n\r\nPrior to joining KQED in 2015, Sandhya covered the 2012 presidential election from the swing state of Iowa for Iowa Public Radio. At KPBS in San Diego, she broke the story of a sexual harassment scandal that led to the mayor's resignation.\r\n\r\nShe got her start in radio working on documentaries about Oakland that investigated the high drop-out rate in public schools and mistrust between the police and the community.\r\n\r\nSandhya lives in Oakland and believes all stories are stories about power.",

Until then, the earliest Fruitvale bus is AC Transit's O line, which leaves the BART station at 5 a.m. and makes its way through Alameda before heading across the bay, arriving at the temporary Transbay Terminal, at Beale and Folsom streets, at 5:41 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neither option suits Enriquez's situation well, and both will cost more than simply getting on BART.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have to drive my car, pay for parking and ride the bus all the way to San Francisco,\" Enriquez said. \"I'm spending gas, paying for parking and spending an extra dollar for the bus.

SFO spokesman Doug Yakel said that includes about 250 to 350 airport workers who ride the earliest BART trains to work. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our real focus right now, working with BART, has been on getting the word out to those people,\" Yakel said. \"So we've been working with the various employers — airlines, TSA, and also concessions, you think about restaurants and coffee shops that open real early. It's really people in those types of categories who might be affected.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To replace the early trains, BART has partnered with SamTrans for four runs between the Millbrae BART/Caltrain station and the airport. The service will run every 15 to 20 minutes starting at 4:01 a.m. SamTrans will also shuttle passengers to the airport from the temporary Transbay Terminal starting at 4:45 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting from KQED's Anna Sturla, Sonja Hutson and Brian Watt.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

But for those few thousands making their way to their jobs in places like San Francisco International Airport or downtown San Francisco, there are few, if any, alternatives in the predawn hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take Felipe Enriquez, who has depended on the first run from Oakland's Coliseum Station to get to a janitorial job across the bay. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have to be in San Francisco by 5 in the morning,\" Enriquez told KQED News morning news anchor Brian Watt this week.

Until then, the earliest Fruitvale bus is AC Transit's O line, which leaves the BART station at 5 a.m. and makes its way through Alameda before heading across the bay, arriving at the temporary Transbay Terminal, at Beale and Folsom streets, at 5:41 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neither option suits Enriquez's situation well, and both will cost more than simply getting on BART.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have to drive my car, pay for parking and ride the bus all the way to San Francisco,\" Enriquez said. \"I'm spending gas, paying for parking and spending an extra dollar for the bus. It's just ... it starts to add up.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the many employers assessing the impact of BART's service change are agencies and businesses at San Francisco International Airport. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The airport says about 5,000 of the 43,000 people employed at the facility each week take BART to and from work. SFO spokesman Doug Yakel said that includes about 250 to 350 airport workers who ride the earliest BART trains to work. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our real focus right now, working with BART, has been on getting the word out to those people,\" Yakel said. \"So we've been working with the various employers — airlines, TSA, and also concessions, you think about restaurants and coffee shops that open real early. It's really people in those types of categories who might be affected.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To replace the early trains, BART has partnered with SamTrans for four runs between the Millbrae BART/Caltrain station and the airport. The service will run every 15 to 20 minutes starting at 4:01 a.m. SamTrans will also shuttle passengers to the airport from the temporary Transbay Terminal starting at 4:45 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting from KQED's Anna Sturla, Sonja Hutson and Brian Watt.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Its average weekday patronage has fallen from a high of 433,000 to 414,000. The biggest declines have been seen in late-night and weekend ridership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART argues that there are signs that things are getting better: The agency says it has hired more workers to clean up stations, implemented a formal cleaner certification program and made visible progress improving conditions at some of the system's most notoriously troubled stations -- Civic Center and 16th Street/Mission in San Francisco, for instance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency says that its new train cars will improve reliability and, by the very fact that they are shiny and loaded with new features like better air circulation and signage, will make riders happier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it points to one modest-sounding but unqualified success: The hiring of attendants to keep watch on the four elevators at Civic Center and Powell Street stations. Customer surveys suggest the public recognizes that conditions on those elevators -- often used as toilets by station denizens in the past -- have improved dramatically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101869287/bart-approval-rating-hits-historic-low\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an appearance\u003c/a> on KQED's Forum on Wednesday, BART board president Bevan Dufty told the district's patrons he was sorry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I want to apologize for the experiences that riders have had that have brought these numbers in so low,\" Dufty said. \"It's not really a surprise because the problems the riders are seeing are what we're seeking to tackle and change.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said part of the problem was the past failure to invest in the system -- an issue he suggested the district is on the way to solving thanks to a 2016 bond measure that will provide $3.5 billion to renew infrastructure. But he added, as other BART officials and directors have in the past, that the district and its customers are at the mercy of larger social forces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are like everyone else in the Bay Area -- we are impacted by the crisis of homelessness,\" Dufty said. \"This is something I've worked on, and we need the partnership of our cities and counties around the bay to address this, because we are a transportation agency, not a social service agency.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dufty pointed to the deployment of San Francisco homeless outreach teams to the Powell and Civic Center stations over the past year as a success story, with team members finding help ranging from emergency shelter to clean socks for people seeking refuge on the BART concourses. That outreach effort is scheduled to expand next month, with a two-person team dedicated to the 16th and 24th Street stations in the Mission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Debora Allen, the board member representing central Contra Costa County, said in an interview she feels the survey results show the need for the district to take decisive action to respond to customer concerns. She said she wants to see the agency move to start hiring officers to fill about 25 empty positions in its Police Department and make it more difficult to get into the system without paying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allen, who like Dufty was elected to the board in 2016, said, \"The last two years of continuous assurances that things will get better, that we're doing the right things -- that's no longer acceptable. Here we are, riders are coming back to us and saying, 'Yeah, we're even more unhappy now than we were two years ago.' We've got to move quickly. We've got to address the police positions. We've got to address the fare evasion. And we've got to figure out how we're going to close off the entrances to the stations\" to non-paying riders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The measure — on the ballot in its three core counties of Alameda, Contra Costa and San Francisco — proposed raising property taxes to support an agency effort to improve its tracks, tunnels, computer systems and other infrastructure. It passed with an overall 70 percent yes vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The size of the fine drew complaints — most notably from state Sen. Steve Glazer, D-Orinda, a longtime BART critic — that the penalty was little more than a slap on the wrist. Glazer urged the FPPC to scrap the proposed fine, which its staff had negotiated with the transit agency, and impose the maximum fine of about $33,000. Glazer had also called for state and local prosecutors to look into the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>FPPC Chair Alice Germond said at Thursday’s commission meeting in Sacramento that on one level the FPPC’s process had worked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s important to acknowledge that … BART did admit that they made a mistake, that they erred,” Germond said. “That is the ultimate goal here, I think — somebody did something wrong, and they have admitted it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In its \u003ca href=\"https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/5662950/3-BART-Stip.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">stipulated agreement\u003c/a> with BART, FPPC staff said the $7,500 fine was sufficient given the penalties levied in comparable cases and because of a several other factors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Although the commission considers BART’s violations to be serious, the absence of any evidence of an intention to conceal, deceive, or mislead; the voluntary filing of the delinquent campaign statement; and the absence of a prior record are mitigating,” the agreement said. “BART contends that it did not intend on engaging in campaign activities in support of Measure RR.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Germond said the penalty failed to address deeper concerns about misuse of public funds for campaign purposes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I would like to do is talk about how serious it really is to use public funds to advocate for a campaign for any issue,” she said. “It is the concept of misusing public funds that I think we all here are very disturbed about, and we want to send a warning and not create a precedent that it’s a minor little slap on the wrist kind of issue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The four-member commission approved her motion to send a letter to the state attorney general and the district attorneys in the BART counties “to urge further prosecution in this case.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alameda County district attorney’s spokesperson Teresa Drenick said in an email Friday “we are aware of the matter and are reviewing it.” The Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office said it hadn’t yet received any specific referral or request from the FPPC. The offices of the San Francisco district attorney and state attorney general did not immediately reply to requests for comment. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, BART said it had not heard from prosecutors’ offices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have been and will continue to be committed to following the law,” the agency said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

"content": "\u003cp>The Alameda County District Attorney’s Office announced Tuesday it will not pursue criminal charges against a BART officer who shot and killed 28-year-old Sahleem Tindle near the West Oakland BART station in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fatal confrontation occurred when Officer Joseph Mateu intervened in an altercation outside the station during which Tindle had shot another man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a letter to BART Police Chief Carlos Rojas, District Attorney Nancy O’Malley said she had reviewed report findings conducted by her office and agreed “that the evidence does not justify criminal charges” against Mateu. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In February, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11651433/bart-releases-body-cam-video-of-fatal-west-oakland-police-shooting\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BART released body camera video\u003c/a> of the Jan. 3 incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The video depicts Mateu, responding to apparent gunshots and panicked BART patrons, dashing from the station to the corner of Seventh and Chester streets, where two men were struggling over a gun on the sidewalk. Mateu issued a radio call of “shots fired” and shouted repeatedly for both men to show their hands. Neither man obeyed, and Mateu opened fire on Tindle, hitting him three times from an apparent distance of less than 10 feet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART police said at the time that Mateu opened fire after he saw a pistol in Tindle’s hands. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district attorney’s \u003ca href=\"https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/5018173/Final-Tindle-OIS-10-23-18-Cover.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">47-page report\u003c/a> recounts that version of events but says Mateu opened fire after losing sight of the gun. Fearing that Tindle had gained possession of the weapon and could be about to shoot the other man on the sidewalk or turn the weapon on Mateu himself, the officer “fired three rapid shots into Mr. Tindle’s back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Officer Mateu said that, after he fired the shots, he saw the gun fall out of Mr. Tindle’s right hand and the magazine fall out of the gun,” the report says. “Mr. Tindle fell to the ground. Once on the ground, Mr. Tindle raised his hands up,” as did the other man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report concludes: “The analysis of this investigation includes consideration of whether it was reasonable for Officer Mateu to act when he did, rather than waiting to see if Mr. Tindle would eventually comply with the officer’s commands, drop the gun, and show both of his hands. The incident developed rapidly. Once Officer Mateu realized that a shooting had already taken place, it was not unreasonable for him to believe that further shooting could be imminent. This required Officer Mateu to make rapid decisions in a dangerous situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKLikYUloXc&w=800&h=450]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district attorney’s report also includes summaries of interviews with witnesses to the incident. Several of them suggested that the fight that led to the fatal shooting may have started with a dispute over a pair of athletic shoes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11649337/mother-of-oakland-man-fatally-shot-by-bart-officer-demands-release-of-body-camera-video\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">legal claim filed Feb. 13\u003c/a> against BART by the mother and two young children of Sahleem Tindle acknowledged that he had shot another man in the leg just before he was killed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the claim said Tindle had been struggling with the other man and had been disarmed by the time Mateu arrived on the scene. The claim cited the video from Mateu’s body camera.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John Burris, an attorney who represents the Tindle family, said in an interview Tuesday that there was no conclusive proof the shooting was justified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It seems to me the officer was clearly negligent in his having shot this particular person without having evidence that he in fact was in fact committing a crime,” Burris said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There were two people struggling over a gun it looks like,” Burris said. “You couldn’t tell who had possession. But at the time the shooting took place commands had been given and it appears that [Mr. Tindle] was trying to comply. The officer interpreted his effort at complying with an act that suggests he was about to do something differently.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burris also said he was not surprised by the decision of the DA’s office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“On balance I’m not surprised at the decision,” Burris said. “I thought the DA worked very, very hard to support the police officer’s position, unjustifiably so. There should be criminal prosecution here if nothing else for negligence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burris said Tuesday the civil case is currently in federal court and “we’re moving forward.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting by KQED’s Peter Jon Shuler.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Mateu issued a radio call of “shots fired” and shouted repeatedly for both men to show their hands. Neither man obeyed, and Mateu opened fire on Tindle, hitting him three times from an apparent distance of less than 10 feet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Fearing that Tindle had gained possession of the weapon and could be about to shoot the other man on the sidewalk or turn the weapon on Mateu himself, the officer “fired three rapid shots into Mr. Tindle’s back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Officer Mateu said that, after he fired the shots, he saw the gun fall out of Mr. Tindle’s right hand and the magazine fall out of the gun,” the report says. “Mr. Tindle fell to the ground. Once on the ground, Mr. Tindle raised his hands up,” as did the other man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report concludes: “The analysis of this investigation includes consideration of whether it was reasonable for Officer Mateu to act when he did, rather than waiting to see if Mr. Tindle would eventually comply with the officer’s commands, drop the gun, and show both of his hands. The incident developed rapidly. Once Officer Mateu realized that a shooting had already taken place, it was not unreasonable for him to believe that further shooting could be imminent. This required Officer Mateu to make rapid decisions in a dangerous situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/tKLikYUloXc'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/tKLikYUloXc'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district attorney’s report also includes summaries of interviews with witnesses to the incident.

The claim cited the video from Mateu’s body camera.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John Burris, an attorney who represents the Tindle family, said in an interview Tuesday that there was no conclusive proof the shooting was justified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It seems to me the officer was clearly negligent in his having shot this particular person without having evidence that he in fact was in fact committing a crime,” Burris said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There were two people struggling over a gun it looks like,” Burris said. “You couldn’t tell who had possession. But at the time the shooting took place commands had been given and it appears that [Mr. Tindle] was trying to comply. The officer interpreted his effort at complying with an act that suggests he was about to do something differently.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burris also said he was not surprised by the decision of the DA’s office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“On balance I’m not surprised at the decision,” Burris said. “I thought the DA worked very, very hard to support the police officer’s position, unjustifiably so. There should be criminal prosecution here if nothing else for negligence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burris said Tuesday the civil case is currently in federal court and “we’re moving forward.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post includes reporting by KQED’s Peter Jon Shuler.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Jerry Brown for his signature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the measure, BART's own \u003ca href=\"https://www.bart.gov/about/business/tod/guidelines\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">transit-oriented development guidelines\u003c/a> would govern residential and mixed-used projects on property the agency currently owns within a half-mile of station entrances. Most of that property is used for parking. The bill would affect an estimated 250 acres in all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill gives the BART board until July 2020 to formally adopt its guidelines. The affected cities would be required to bring their own zoning laws into compliance with the BART standards or allow the agency's rules to govern development on its property. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the key amendments from the original legislation is one that limits the height of the BART developments to one story or 15 feet above the current maximum height limits within half a mile. AB 2923 contains a sunset provision under which it would expire in 2029. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Assembly vote, which was to approve the amended form of the bill passed by the state Senate last week, was preceded by a series of sharply divergent pleas: on one side, that the state needs to act urgently to relieve the housing crisis in the Bay Area and beyond; on the other, that Chiu's measure usurps local control guaranteed by the state Constitution and hands authority to an agency that has shown it's not fit to exercise it. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch4>How They Voted: AB 2923\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>How Bay Area members of the Assembly voted on bill to give zoning authority to BART:\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n \u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Aye:\u003c/strong> Berman, Bonta, Chiu, Chu, Grayson, Kalra, Low, Mullin, Thurmond, Ting, Wood.\u003cbr>\n \u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>No:\u003c/strong> Baker, Frazier, Levine\u003cbr>\n \u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Not voting:\u003c/strong> Aguilar-Curry, Quirk\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Democrat Jim Frazier of Oakley and Republican Catherine Baker of Dublin both argued that BART has encountered few obstacles in getting cities to cooperate with development plans in their district and that in fact many cities they represent have done more than their share to meet state-mandated housing goals. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They both attacked BART in urging a no vote on the bill. Frazier pointed to what he called poor planning by the transit agency in preparing for ridership at its newly opened, and popular, Antioch station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite \"the best local advice and statistics,\" Frazier said, \"BART's new station was opened without providing adequate parking or adequate public safety for the volume of riders we knew we would see but that they ignored.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baker told colleagues that \"BART is drowning in its own problems\" and shouldn't be entrusted with more responsibility for housing development. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Let me tell you a little bit about the agency to which a yes vote will give control over housing,\" she said. \"Right now, BART is in the headlines for stabbings, for crimes -- they have a crime crisis.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That drew an objection from Assemblymember Tony Thurmond, D-Richmond, who asked the chair to direct her comments to the merits of the bill. The chair declined, and Baker continued with a litany of the agency's woes, including maintenance, delays in getting its new cars into service and widespread fare evasion. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But rebutting that view were members Tim Grayson, a Democratic former mayor of Concord, and Rob Bonta, D-Alameda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t have to like BART or feel good on BART to understand that this state is facing a housing crisis,\" Grayson said. He added that while serving as a local official, he worked alongside BART when the agency sought to make capital improvements at its downtown Concord station. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They could easily have come up with their own plans and rammed it through,\" Grayson said. \"But instead, they reached out, they collaborated, they sought for advice and input from our City Council.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta, pointing to a transit-oriented development at BART's Fruitvale station that has taken nearly 25 years to complete, said AB 2923 was needed to streamline housing construction. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve seen some great communities built around BART stations in my district, but it takes too long,\" Bonta said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 2923 won wide support from planning, transportation and pro-development groups, who were joined by conservation-oriented organizations like Greenbelt Alliance. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some 17 Bay Area cities registered opposition to the bill, as did the League of California Cities. \u003c/p>\n\n",

Jerry Brown for his signature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the measure, BART's own \u003ca href=\"https://www.bart.gov/about/business/tod/guidelines\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">transit-oriented development guidelines\u003c/a> would govern residential and mixed-used projects on property the agency currently owns within a half-mile of station entrances. Most of that property is used for parking. The bill would affect an estimated 250 acres in all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill gives the BART board until July 2020 to formally adopt its guidelines. The affected cities would be required to bring their own zoning laws into compliance with the BART standards or allow the agency's rules to govern development on its property. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

AB 2923 contains a sunset provision under which it would expire in 2029. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Assembly vote, which was to approve the amended form of the bill passed by the state Senate last week, was preceded by a series of sharply divergent pleas: on one side, that the state needs to act urgently to relieve the housing crisis in the Bay Area and beyond; on the other, that Chiu's measure usurps local control guaranteed by the state Constitution and hands authority to an agency that has shown it's not fit to exercise it. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch4>How They Voted: AB 2923\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>How Bay Area members of the Assembly voted on bill to give zoning authority to BART:\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n \u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Aye:\u003c/strong> Berman, Bonta, Chiu, Chu, Grayson, Kalra, Low, Mullin, Thurmond, Ting, Wood.\u003cbr>\n \u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>No:\u003c/strong> Baker, Frazier, Levine\u003cbr>\n \u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Not voting:\u003c/strong> Aguilar-Curry, Quirk\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Democrat Jim Frazier of Oakley and Republican Catherine Baker of Dublin both argued that BART has encountered few obstacles in getting cities to cooperate with development plans in their district and that in fact many cities they represent have done more than their share to meet state-mandated housing goals. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They both attacked BART in urging a no vote on the bill. Frazier pointed to what he called poor planning by the transit agency in preparing for ridership at its newly opened, and popular, Antioch station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite \"the best local advice and statistics,\" Frazier said, \"BART's new station was opened without providing adequate parking or adequate public safety for the volume of riders we knew we would see but that they ignored.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baker told colleagues that \"BART is drowning in its own problems\" and shouldn't be entrusted with more responsibility for housing development. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Let me tell you a little bit about the agency to which a yes vote will give control over housing,\" she said. \"Right now, BART is in the headlines for stabbings, for crimes -- they have a crime crisis.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That drew an objection from Assemblymember Tony Thurmond, D-Richmond, who asked the chair to direct her comments to the merits of the bill. The chair declined, and Baker continued with a litany of the agency's woes, including maintenance, delays in getting its new cars into service and widespread fare evasion. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But rebutting that view were members Tim Grayson, a Democratic former mayor of Concord, and Rob Bonta, D-Alameda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t have to like BART or feel good on BART to understand that this state is facing a housing crisis,\" Grayson said. He added that while serving as a local official, he worked alongside BART when the agency sought to make capital improvements at its downtown Concord station. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They could easily have come up with their own plans and rammed it through,\" Grayson said. \"But instead, they reached out, they collaborated, they sought for advice and input from our City Council.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta, pointing to a transit-oriented development at BART's Fruitvale station that has taken nearly 25 years to complete, said AB 2923 was needed to streamline housing construction. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve seen some great communities built around BART stations in my district, but it takes too long,\" Bonta said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 2923 won wide support from planning, transportation and pro-development groups, who were joined by conservation-oriented organizations like Greenbelt Alliance. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some 17 Bay Area cities registered opposition to the bill, as did the League of California Cities. \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
