The Sacramento Bee\u2019s top stories on Thursday, July 30, covered a stalled homeless housing project, a record-setting heat dome and the arrest of a local celebrity chef.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a quick look at what readers need to know:<\/p>\n
Sacramento loaned homeless nonprofit Step Up on Second $2.9 million<\/a> in 2022 to build 100 to 125 affordable housing units on Fruitridge Road but, four years later, construction had not started and the city had not enforced default provisions. The nonprofit previously settled a $3 million lawsuit with California Attorney General Rob Bonta over more than $100 million in state Project Homekey funds for motel conversions that were never built.The largest heat dome on Earth was expected to settle over the southwestern U.S. during the weekend, with triple-digit temperatures forecast across the Central Valley<\/a> into the following week. Hurricane Genevieve, fueled by Super El Ni\u00f1o conditions, was expected to strengthen the dome and push highs near 110 degrees in Bakersfield and Redding, while wildfire risk was expected to climb as humidity dropped into single digits. <\/p>\n This report was produced with the assistance of a proprietary tool powered by artificial intelligence based on our own originally reported, written and published content.
