BECAUSE STATE HOUSING POLICY
FAVORS LUXURY OVER AFFORDABILITY
REPLACES PLANNING
WITH PROFITS
IGNORES HAZARDS AND THE ENVIRONMENT
AND SETS UP CITIES TO FAIL
We’ll guide you through the process on the PUSH BACK page .
The state demands 2.5 million more residences by 2031, regardless of each city’s actual needs.
Why?
The state has known since July 2023 that population projections from the California Department of Finance refute the bloated mandates: the population will not grow 7+ million by 2031, it is projected to remain almost flat through 2060. It’s not because of lack of housing. It’s due to our aging population, declining birth rates, economic realities, higher outmigration, and lower inmigration.
In other words, RHNA is based on “aspirations,” not need.
But the state isn’t backing off the outrageous numbers.
Professor Elmendorf of UC Davis and other housing experts pushing current state housing policy are in favor of using “ad hoc” methodology that intentionally over-burdens cities .
This is their RHNA support document submitted during the audit
Fire safety, your safety. No area is off limits — as long as updated building code is followed. Allowing massive or piecemeal development that blocks evacuation access can be deadly.
Sustainable water and power. California has neither and it’s irresponsible to ignore our limitations. If your town has infrastructure, traffic, or other issues, they will be ignored
Policy “destroys the environment to save the environment.” To please the state, sensitive wildlife habitat and corridors, wetlands, and other natural areas are open to dense development.
The future of all cities is in the hands of a fir profit industry that no longer has any responsibility to communities to tread lightly or even pay impact fees. Cities are on their own.
