Proposed Legislation Targets Arizona Housing Crisis
Writing in Axios, Jessica Boehm describes proposed Arizona state legislation that seeks to address the state’s housing affordability crisis.
While lawmakers remain divided on many of the proposed measures, among the bills that could have enough bipartisan support are the Arizona Starter Homes Act, which would bar cities from requiring amenities or design standards that would slow the housing construction process, and SB1415, which would legalize accessory dwelling units (ADUs), locally known as casitas, in cities with populations larger than 75,000 people.
Another bill, HB2374 would prohibit parking minimums in certain housing developments. Other bills would extend the state Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Program to finance affordable housing and require that eviction notices include information about assistance programs. Commenting on the proposals, Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs said “I would like to see something that strikes the right balance between our ability to build faster and local control.”

Diamondbacks prospect Druw Jones hits for cycle in Double-A – Arizona Sports
Arizona Diamondbacks prospect Druw Jones needed a home run to complete the cycle when he dug into the batter’s box in the eighth inning of a Double-A game on Wednesday night.
Jones, playing for Double-A Amarillo, stayed behind the baseball and drove an inside pitch to right-center field for his first home run of the season, earning the first cycle in Sod Poodles history.

The 22-year-old knocked out the toughest leg first with a triple to right field in the third inning against the Midland Rockhounds (Athletics). Jones zoomed from home to third base in 11 seconds, Corbin Carroll-esque speed, for his first triple of the season.
Jones singled in the fifth on a ground ball that skipped under shortstop Joshua Kuroda-Grauer’s glove on what would have been a tight play at first base, and in the sixth, he doubled to right field.
His home run came off right-handed pitcher Mitch Myers to give Amarillo a 9-2 lead in a 10-2 win — infield prospect Cristofer Torin went back-to-back with Jones.
The last Diamondbacks major leaguer to hit for the cycle was Aaron Hill, who did so twice within 11 days of each other in 2012. The most recent cycle in Major League Baseball came from Minnesota’s Byron Buxton on July 12.
Jones is the No. 16 prospect in Arizona’s system as ranked by MLB Pipeline and No. 17 by Baseball America.
Known for his defense, the outfielder has gotten off to a slow start statistically with a .229/.345/.343 slash line in his first 19 games playing Double-A baseball. He hit .286 in Cactus League this past spring and performed well in the World Baseball Classic for Team Netherlands.
