SHORTLY AFTER, WE ALL HEADED INTO A WORK-FROM-HOME ENVIRONMENT DUE TO COVID-19, BUT OUR REGIONAL RELATIONSHIPS WERE CRITICAL DURING THIS TIME. WE WERE EFFECTIVE IN WORKING WITH DEVELOPERS AND UNIONS IN CREATING GUIDELINES IN BAY AREA COUNTIES FOR HOUSING CONSTRUCTION TO CONTINUE OUTDOORS IN A SAFE WAY. BUILDING ON THIS WORK, THE LEADERSHIP GROUP HOUSING COMMITTEE PARTICIPATED IN PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT PROCESSES IN SILICON VALLEY CITIES INCLUDING THE ENDORSEMENT OF 15 HOME DEVELOPMENTS THAT INCLUDED OVER 7,000 NEW HOMES, MANY OF THEM AFFORDABLE.
