The Impact of Rent Control Policies on Bay Area Housing Supply: Developer Perceptions and Development Calculus POLICY BRIEF THE IMPACT OF Spring 2021 RENT CONTROL POLICIES ON BAY AREA HOUSING SUPPLY: DEVELOPER PERCEPTIONS AND DEVELOPMENT CALCULUS work included a review of academic and other PURPOSE AND CONTEXT literature; interviews with 12 developers, lenders, and real estate researchers; a regression analysis As policymakers grapple with increased housing of historical transaction data from the Bay Area costs in the Bay Area, some communities compared with different policy formulations; and have implemented rent control as a strategy to detailed pro forma analyses of how different stabilize renter households. While there is general stringencies of rent control policies might impact the acknowledgement that many households benefit development feasibility of hypothetical multifamily from rent control policies, there is debate about developments in the Bay Area. its impacts, including how rent control policies might influence new housing production. If a rent FINDINGS control policy stabilizes certain households while restricting new housing production, it might have unintended consequences for long-term housing California’s existing anti-price gouging affordability. Proponents and detractors of rent policy is different from what is typically control policies continue to argue over the nature thought of as “rent control,” and has and magnitude of any impact on housing supply limited or no impact on the feasibility of new housing development. and affordability.

This means that conducted a mixed-methods analysis to understand any mitigation strategies for the policy may not be how different types of rent control policies might necessary at this time. impact housing development feasibility. This 1 THE IMPACT OF RENT CONTROL POLICIES ON BAY AREA HOUSING SUPPLY: DEVELOPER PERCEPTIONS AND DEVELOPMENT CALCULUS However, some developers are wary that the policy may become more stringent. Even if there are no foreseeable impacts to a building’s operating income from AB 1482 or an existing local policy, if investors perceive that rent increases may become further limited or that the policy could eventually apply before year 15, they might start to account for the risk of these changes by rethinking their investment decisions. Transaction data demonstrate that investors value properties subject to local rent control policies less than properties that are not subject to the policies, with the valuation impacts correlating with the stringency of the rent control policy. While new construction is not subject to pre Costa Hawkins1 rent control policies, we ran an analysis that controlled for building age and other attributes to isoldate the influence of rent control on valuations. We found a measurable perception of risk among investors related to existing rent-controlled buildings. This is because developers are wary of future policy changes to state and local rent control regulations that could impact a building’s operating income. This impact was most prominent in San Francisco. Changes to the current parameters of California’s state-wide policy or local rent control policies could decrease the feasibility of new development. The infeasibility of building under stricter rent control policies is driven by (1) the policy parameters themselves and (2) how developers and investors respond to these parameters. Exihibit 1 provides a summary of different policy parameters and examples of their various levels of stringency. Exhibit 1.

The Impact of Rent Control Policies on Bay Area Housing Supply: Developer Perceptions and Development Calculus 3 THE IMPACT OF RENT CONTROL POLICIES ON BAY AREA HOUSING SUPPLY: DEVELOPER PERCEPTIONS AND DEVELOPMENT CALCULUS INFORMING A CLEAR DISCUSSION AROUND RENT CONTROL Policymakers and stakeholders should more carefully differentiate between strict rent control and anti-price gouging policies, like California’s Assembly Bill 1482. Exhibit 2 provides an initial framework that communities can think about to characterize existing and potential policies. We defined stringency as follows: an anti-price gouging policy is unlikely to constrain rent increases in the marketplace, a moderate rent control policy limits rents from rising more than what might be considered typical in the market, and a strict rent control policy might consistently limit rent increases.

  • The Search Intelligence Process
    Journal of Search & Rescue, Volume 4, Issue 1 April 2020 The Search Intelligence Process Christopher S. Young Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Search & Rescue Team Chairman Bay Area Search and Rescue Council (BASARC) USA Email [email protected] Abstract The Search Intelligence Process of gathering information regarding the missing subject occurs during every search incident. We recognize intelligence information is used to build a subject profile; gather lists of people with first-hand knowledge of the missing subject that we want to talk to; develop scenarios; and task investigators to research and mine information from various sources, like social media or cell phone data, to determine where to look and what to look for. However, during the initial stage of an active search for a missing person, intelligence gathering can be very daunting, chaotic, haphazard or worse not initiated thus delaying the compiling of crucial information that could shorten the time it takes to locate the subject. In any other aspect of the search operation like ground searching or technical rope rescue we preplan, train and develop processes to be more efficient. This presentation will discuss the search intelligence process by: defining the various sources of information available to use developing pre-plans for the gathering of intelligent information, developing decision trees, developing lists of reflex tasks, developing algorithms for transitioning between the initial actions into multiple operational periods and eventually to the termination of search operations, and develop ongoing training curricula with the goal of creating efficiencies and hone the necessary skills to perform the intelligence gathering process. KEY WORDS: Intelligence Gathering, Missing Person, Interviewing.

Yet no alliance is without disagree- ment, and as the United States and South Korea’s partnership approaches its eighth decade, new geopolitical realities could pose obstacles to its integrity. With North Korea continuing to build on its capabilities to produce weapons of mass destruction and China posing growing challenges, it is as important as ever that progressive and conservative policymakers on both sides of the alliance understand one another’s perspectives. Both sides must invest in finding ways to forge consensus on key issues and bridge the divide where necessary. However, they must also realize that it is natural to have different positions and that it is OK to not agree on everything. In particular, progressive foreign policy leaders in both countries share many perspectives, but their views sometimes differ on two fundamental questions: 1) What are the greatest challenges that the alliance should focus on? and 2) How should the alliance address the threat
