Update: 2023-07-07

Description

Southern Alameda County housing provider Tom Silva is a polarizing figure in San Leandro, but hear him out. Lee Thomas chats with Tom over GrilleeQ smoked salmon on a cedar plank, citrus-marinated Cali chicken thighs, and Burmese garlic noodles. Tom lays out the housing landscape in San Leandro, the city's limited housing stock, the stark financial difficulties for residents to buy property, and his belief state leaders will not push housing regulations outside of transit centers, and more.
