Prepare for El Niño related storms by identifying at least two routes out of your neighborhood. Heavy rain and strong winds can cause fallen trees, downed power lines and blocked roads. Knowing your options ahead of time can help you get to safety if you need to evacuate. Sign up for local emergency alerts at Ready.ca.gov and always follow directions from local authorities to help make evacuating safer and easier.

Oakland @BarbaraLee_CA is standing with firefighters and local leaders against Prop 43. Protect majority rule and local voters’ power to fund the services their communities count on. Vote NO on 43. #NoOn43CA #Prop43

@MayorToddGloria is voting NO on Prop 43. Prop 43 would allow a small minority of voters to block what the majority wants. Local voters deserve the final say. #NoOn43CA

Four city leaders, four incredible California communities! 🌟 As I travel across all 58 counties, I’m discovering what makes every city special. At the California League of Cities Annual Conference, I asked these local leaders what they want everyone to know about their hometowns. Here’s what Fremont Mayor Raj Salwan, Adelanto Mayor Pro Tem Daniel Ramos, Stockton City Councilmember Mario Enrique, and Bellflower Mayor Pro Tem Victor Sanchez had to say! #58Counties1California #LeagueOfCaliforniaCities #Fremont #Adelanto #Stockton #Bellflower #StrongerTogether @RajSalwan @MrMarioEnriquez @CalCities

CSDA was proud to sponsor and participate in the CCLI Bootcamp! Thanks to CSDA's Aaron Avery and Kyle Packham for facilitating educational panels. We value our partnership with @CalCities and were encouraged and inspired by the participants’ shared commitment to California's communities and constituents.

I joined @CalCities’ LA Division tonight to welcome their new president, Ana Maria Quintana. I know Mayor Quintana will do great work advocating for our cities—and I also want to thank outgoing president Britt Huff for her service. Congratulations to these two incredible women!

If developers don’t pay impact fees to fund local infrastructure, who will? Further restricting developer impact fees won’t solve California’s housing crisis. It will make things worse. If developers don’t pay impact fees, there are only two options. Either the infrastructure needed to support new housing doesn’t get built, or taxpayers pick up the tab.

As President of @CalCities I want to thank my executive committee, board members, staff and sponsors for a successful summer board meeting in @RedondoBeachCA !
Cal Cities' Board of Directors gathered for a productive meeting in Redondo Beach last week! 👏 Our Board took action on three ballot measures, welcomed the newly expanded Rural Cities Information Exchange member group, and received important legislative and state budget updates. 

We’re grateful to our dedicated and diverse board members whose leadership helps strengthen communities across California.

I recently had the opportunity to host the @CalCities OC Delegation and the @harborassn in my Sacramento office to discuss their legislative priorities. Local elected officials from OC and key stakeholders from the San Pedro Bay Area discussed key priorities impacting our local communities as well as the role of ports play in CA & the nation's economy. Thank you to your leadership! #caleg
