The melee at the Marriott: Sen. Wiener and Beverly Hills Mayor Mirisch debate housing by Gimme Shelter: The California Housing Crisis Pod published on 2019-10-30T23:15:15Z A very special episode: Matt and Liam moderate a conversation on housing policy between state Sen. Scott Wiener, Democrat from San Francisco, and Beverly Hills Mayor John Mirisch. Wiener is trying to force California cities to allow denser housing. Mirisch has been a fierce defender of local control and single-family-only zoning. Tune in for the avocado jokes, stay for the civil discourse on zoning reform!!!
