California Reforms Major Environmental Law: What’s Next? | Jim Righeimer

Assembly Bill 130 and Senate Bill 131 aim to speed up housing approvals by limiting the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in targeted areas. Former Costa Mesa Mayor Jim Righeimer explains how faster permitting could help ease delays, while also pointing to deeper pressures on infrastructure and housing costs that remain unresolved. He shares how these changes are showing up in local communities and where gaps in the broader response still exist.
