Through its membership and partnerships with state municipal leagues, NLC serves as a resource and advocate for more than 19,000 cities and towns and more than 218 million Americans. NLC’s Center for City Solutions & Applied Research provides research and analysis on key topics and trends important to cities, creative solutions to improve the quality of life in communities, inspiration and ideas for local officials to use in tackling tough issues and opportunities for city leaders to connect with peers, share experiences and learn about innovative approaches in cities. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Micah Farver is an Associate of Finance and Economic Development, Christiana K. McFarland is Research Director and Brooks Rainwater is Center Director in NLC’s Center for City Solutions & Applied Research. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We would like to acknowledge Tim Mudd, Senior Associate on NLC’s Stategic Communications team, and Raksha Vasudevan, former Senior Associate in NLC’s Center for City Solutions & Applied Research, for their early leadership efforts with the State of the Cities project. Special thanks to Soren Messner–Zidell, who created the data visualizations and designed the report, and to the following NLC staff who contributed content: James Brooks, Nicole DuPuis, Elisha Harig-Blaine, Cooper Martin, Emily Pickren, and Emily Robbins. We are grateful for the leadership of our nation’s mayors and this opportunity to elevate their work. For the first time in human history, the majority of the world’s population (54%) lives in urban areas, including 80 percent of Americans.1 This number is expected to grow to 66 percent of the world’s population by 2050.2 Increasing population growth in cities not only leads to greater citizen demand on local government but also creates an entire new ecosystem in which local governments must respond and adapt.

  • April 8, 2021 the Honorable Toni Atkins the Honorable Anthony
    April 8, 2021 The Honorable Toni Atkins The Honorable Anthony Rendon Senate Pro Tempore Assembly Speaker State Capitol State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 The Honorable Nancy Skinner The Honorable Phil Ting Chair, Senate Budget Committee Chair, Assembly Budget Committee State Capitol State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear President Pro Tempore Atkins, Speaker Rendon and Budget Chairs Skinner and Ting, We appreciate your willingness to meet with us, and to continue your partnership with the mayors of our largest cities in finding pragmatic solutions to address our state’s homelessness crisis. Given the scale of the challenge we collectively face, and because of the extraordinary opportunity created by two unique circumstances--the passage of the American Rescue Plan and the state’s budget surplus--we write to revisit our prior budget request. As you know, we have long believed that the state must identify an ongoing, consistent allocation of flexible funding sufficient to meet the enormity of the challenge in our cities for affordable housing construction and supportive services. While our economic challenges make it difficult to identify an ongoing revenue source, the large amount of one-time funding presents a generational opportunity to make a dramatic move to address our homelessness crisis. That can be accomplished by setting aside a one-time allocation of $16 billion for a steady expenditure of $4 billion per year over the next four years. Through our partnership, we’ve accomplished much in our cities in recent years through such initiatives as Project Homekey, HHAP, and HEAP. We created permanent or transitional housing for our homeless at an average cost to the state of $148,000 per unit under Project Homekey, for instance, and we built prefabricated dorms, modular housing, tiny homes, and shelters even more cost-effectively with state and local dollars.

  • State Issues
    Week of January 14, 2019 State Issues Legislative Analyst This week, the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) released its overview of Governor Newsom’s budget proposal for FY Report on State 2019-20 that was presented last week, and saw a new leader selected to lead this non-partisan organization. The Budget Legislature appointed a new state Legislative Analyst to fill the role Mac Taylor has held for 10 years. They named Gabriel Petek to the post, who most recently worked for Standard and Poor’s Global Ratings San Francisco Office where he is currently the state’s primary credit analyst. He takes the reins on February 4. In addition to getting a new chief, the LAO released its overview of the Governor’s January budget highlighting that that state’s budget position continues to be strong. They also focus on the fact that the Governor’s proposed budget prioritizes the repayments of state debts and a great deal of one-time funding. Nearly half of the discretionary spending is earmarked to pay down state liabilities, including unfunded retirement liabilities and budget debts. Twenty-five (25) percent of the discretionary spending is for one time or temporary funding proposals, and 15 percent for discretionary reserves. The LAO applauds the Governor’s decision to focus on the repayment of state debts. The LAO points out one thing that many took note of – the Governor has outlined many priorities for budgetary spending. And at least some of the proposals are not fully fleshed out or reflected in the budget document. The LAO was not critical of this but pointed out that these un-finalized proposals give the Legislature the opportunity to weigh in with the Administration and have their say in its development.

    January 19, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Mitch McConnell Speaker Majority Leader United States House of Representatives United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Kevin McCarthy The Honorable Charles E. Schumer Republican Leader Democratic Leader United States House of Representatives United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Speaker Pelosi, Leader McCarthy, Leader McConnell and Leader Schumer: RE: Urgent Action Needed on President-Elect Biden’s American Rescue Plan On behalf of The United States Conference of Mayors, we urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including providing direct fiscal assistance to all cities, which is long overdue. President-elect Biden’s American Rescue Plan contains such assistance as part of an aggressive strategy to contain the virus, increase access to life-saving vaccines, and create a foundation for sustainable and inclusive recovery. American cities and our essential workers have been serving at the frontlines of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic for nearly a year. We have been charged with executing herculean public health efforts and an unprecedented emergency response. Despite immense fiscal pressure, your local government partners oversaw those efforts, while trying to maintain essential services and increase our internal capacity to provide support for residents and businesses who have been crippled by a tanking economy. And yet, as the economic engines of our country, local governments will be relied upon to lead the long- term economic recovery our nation so desperately needs, even as, with few exceptions, cities have been largely left without direct federal assistance.

  • California Elections and Community College Measures November 2016 Election Round up November 14, 2016
    California Elections and Community College Measures November 2016 Election Round Up November 14, 2016 OVERVIEW While the election was last week, ballots are still being counted and final certified results are due to the Secretary of State for presidential electors on December 6, 2016, and for all other state contests on December 9, 2016. The Secretary of State will certify the statewide results by December 16, 2016. Until the results are certified, the outcome of close races may change from what is presented below. Focusing on results affecting California Community Colleges, the election provided mostly positive results including the passage of the statewide bond measure, Proposition 51, as well as a number of local bonds. Californians passed several tax measures including Proposition 55, which will continue to provide funding for education. Voters in San Francisco passed an extension of the parcel tax to help fund the City College of San Francisco as well as another local measure that increases the transfer tax rate for sales of residential and commercial properties. Proponents state, that with the passage of this measure, the City of San Francisco could provide free community college. Funds from this local measure will go to the City’s general fund; however, in July, the Board of Supervisors passed a resolution making the City College of San Francisco free for residents a top priority for the new revenue. If results hold in the State Assembly, the Democrats will have gained a supermajority with three seats switching party hands. However, this could change because one of those seats remains a close contest in Assembly District 55 and all three changes are needed for a supermajority.
