"Legislation has been introduced (S3156 by Sen. Paul Sarlo and A4335 by Assemblyman Albert Couhtino) that would give us dirty water, higher utility costs and paved-over open spaces. It is moving quickly through the state Senate and Assembly.

This developers’ proposal would also weaken environmental standards protecting home wells."
