Did you know San Diego recently claimed that housing would be placed on top of a cemetery??
California cities are going through a once-every-eight-year process where they have to create housing plans. The state determines how many homes they'll need based on population growth, job growth, and other factors. But lots of cities have been trying to get away with plans that don't make sense. San Diego's claim that homes will go on top of a cemetery is just one example, and we need to make sure cities all over the state make plans that are actually able to be executed.
That's where Jon Wizard, the Campaign for Fair Housing Elements, and the team at YIMBY Law come in. Along with hundreds of volunteers, they're keeping an eye on these housing plans and sending important information to the state (specifically California HCD) in order to hold cities accountable.
Join Executive Director Laura Foote in a conversation with Jon Wizard, Policy Director at the Campaign for Fair Housing Elements as they discuss what San Diego's housing element means for other housing plans throughout the state.
