  A Stanford Professionals in Real Estate (SPIRE) In-Person Panel Discussion

  On July 1, Governor Newsom signed AB 130 and SB 131 into law—ushering in the most significant overhaul of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in decades. These sweeping changes are poised to reshape entitlement strategies, fast-track housing approvals, and redefine what’s possible for development across the state.

  Join SPIRE for an exclusive in-person panel unpacking the reforms’ implications for project viability, legal risk, and the future of real estate development in California.

  Pricing:
  $50 (drinks included)

  Panelists Include:
  Meris Ota (Moderator) 
  Board Member – SPIRE 
  A developer and real estate advisor who has led some of the largest and most complex projects in the San Francisco Bay Area.

  Muhammad T. Alameldin
  Senior Policy Advisor – California YIMBY
  A key player in shaping pro-housing legislation, Muhammad will provide a behind-the-scenes look at how these CEQA reforms came to be—and what future legislative changes may follow.
