Show Notes

This week on Fresnolandia, Danielle and Jordan speak with Rob Parsons, Senior Editor, for a wide-ranging news roundup on the biggest issues shaping Fresno and the Central Valley. From the fierce debate over Proposition 50 and its implications for redistricting, to the chilling rise in ICE activity locally; they also dig into Fresno’s cooling housing market, the challenges of building affordability in a changing economy, and the community effort to preserve West Fresno’s overlooked history through a public art project. Rounding things out, the team looks ahead to contentious city council races, major land-use decisions, and the future of transportation funding with Measure C. And, as always, they close with what they’re loving this week.
