Comment
Cap & Trade revenue should be devoted to Building and Preserving
Affordable Homes Near Transit: Affordable TOD as a Greenhouse Gas
Reduction and Equity Strategy."  Allocating cap and trade revenue
funding for transit-oriented development is a proven greenhouse gas
(GHG) reduction strategy. According to CHPC, there is strong
evidence that building and preserving affordable homes near transit
will allow California to achieve substantial reductions in
greenhouse gas emissions. The report also highlights that investing
only in transit would cause displacement of low-income households.
