This, of course, isn’t the biggest issue (not enough units) in places like north county – the true issue is the volume of tech workers that will pay $2M for a small home or $6,000/month for a 2 bedroom apartment. If you build more without an affordable requirement – then you are just building more very expensive housing. Whether Builder’s Remedy or SB330 – it’s just more really bad ideas coming from the state – and their “solutions”, as usual, are just causing more problems.
