I've watched many videos about how staircase requirements prevent us from building three-flats that historically brought gentle density to places like Chicago and San Francisco. Exciting to see my city doing something about it!

The rent is too damn high! Not building huge hallways in apartment complexes can help.

Single stair reform is coming to Culver City Council TONIGHT!

all i want is to one day own a modest sized home in a walkable neighborhood and raise money for shelter animals. wear an outfit i like, walk to the grocery store, buy some nectarines, feed cats, and live in peace. just don't understand why achieving this is so hard

Who do I need to talk to to get this in LA? I would love for all those who take the speed limit as a gentle suggestion to have their social contracts violated.

As one of these 48,000, yes I was over the speed limit and I probably deserved the ticket but getting caught speeding by a robot still feels like a violation of the social contract somehow. wjla.com/news/local/m...

I don't know who needs to hear this, but turn signals are for signaling your _intent_ to turn or change lanes, not just for style points when you're already doing it

More houses and more trains. It's not that deep

Governor Gavin Newsom @governor.ca.gov · Apr 29

California has more super commuters than any other state, with over 300,000 people spending at least 3 hours a day on the road.

By using GenAI to pinpoint the worst traffic bottlenecks, we hope to find real solutions and make these commutes faster and easier.

“Parking lots don’t employ any people. They simply provide space for cars. We have expensive housing for people and free parking for cars. … We’re killing our own cities. It’s a huge bummer.”

Love to see the new Farragut Connector in Culver City lit up at night. A small but meaningful bit of bike & pedestrian infrastructure that was well worth the wait!

Didn't do much to relieve traffic on side streets, either. Lucerne Ave (runs parallel to Culver Blvd) at around 6:30 PM this evening:
