Assemblymember Chris Ward, who represents uptown, authored a bill intended to streamline the residential building permit process.

The California Residential Private Permitting Review Act has passed the State Legislature and is expected to be approved by Gov. Gavin Newsom. Intern Calista Stocker has all the details in this week’s top story. 

Plus, be sure to vote for your favorite businesses in the area in our Best of Uptown & Downtown San Diego competition. 

And we’re in the home stretch of our fall fundraising campaign — but you can still give! It ends on the 19th, and you could be the one to put us over the top.  

By supporting this Uptown News newsletter, you show your commitment to community journalism. 

Will you help us cross the finish line?
