Abbott Consulting recently partnered with colleague Kate Bristol to prepare this HUD proposal highlighted in the SF Chronicle:
<<Mayor Ed Lee and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, were joined by a host of regional and federal officials Monday to celebrate the awarding of a nearly $5 million federal grant to plan for Bay Area projects that create affordable housing and jobs along transit corridors. The idea is to cluster development where people live and work around BART, Muni, Caltrain and other public transportation options to help reduce air pollution and the amount of time people waste driving on congested freeways. A key is to make the housing affordable for low-income and middle-class workers who otherwise will continue to commute to the Bay Area suburbs and beyond where home prices are cheaper. Lee said that can be done through partnerships with nonprofit housing developers. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development awarded a “sustainable communities grant” to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and the Association of Bay Area Governments to help craft a long-term development plan for the region. >>- Rachel Gordon, sfgate.com, 11/29/11
