is pomona-north one stop or two? if it's one, then the combined count of trains between a line & sb line more than qualifies it into tier 1...

damn #ceqa, allowing me to be able to catch that the city of lancaster appears to be planning a large warehouse district directly in the path of @cahsra.bsky.social. if this also concerns you, be sure to put in your comments by monday.

Screenshot of a map of the proposed North Lancaster Industrial Specific Plan and Westside Annexation areas with the (approximate) path for the Bakersfield-Palmdale of CAHSR sketched across the plan area. Image shows a satellite image with the project centered and outlined in dark lines. The NLISP is a dark gold color and is nested inside the Westside Annexation which is denoted with a lighter gold color. The CAHSR path is marked in blue and starts at the southeast/bottom right corner of the areas and exits them at about 2/3 of the way up the west/left side, continuing northwest to the edge of the image. Screenshot of a portion of a map showing the proposed route of CAHSR through the area of Lancaster, including a location where the City of Lancaster appears to be planning to put a large industrial district directly in the route that has been proposed for CAHSR.

yes, i would imagine that the airport travelers might not be the biggest users, but i know that i personally already bike to @flyONT for trips which exceed the length of the bike parking for the 🚲🟩⬛ (pix related) & given the earlier point about bikes being allowed on transit for free, it's highly...

hold on a second, i think there might be something here. something i've been mulling over for awhile is that "luxury" isn't defined by price of housing but rather by what percentage that price is for the renter. only q is where to set the levels? is luxury < 33%, < 20%, < 15%, or something else?
Screenshot of a bleet, text quoted in full below. > By luxury or even "market-rate" the defining characteristic is what % of people can afford while still spending just 1/3 of income on housing. The look of the building is not part of the definition in my mind.
