2026 CEQA & Regulatory Update Workshop
Bay Planning Coalition’s sold-out 2026 CEQA & Regulatory Update Workshop brought together legal, policy, public-sector, and industry professionals for a timely discussion of the developments shaping environmental review and project delivery in California.
The program featured insightful panel discussions on recent CEQA case law, state regulatory and legislative developments, and changes in federal environmental policy. The morning concluded with a forward-looking discussion led by BPC CEO Laura Tam on election results, legislative priorities, and what they could mean for California’s regulatory landscape.
