California deserves to go broke.

The more I see the way the American Liberal Welfare State works, the more I realize that Communists had it all wrong. Allow the rich and productive to work and, technically, earn more than the poor and middle class, just take everything from them and force them to do government’s bidding on their own dime. Keep the scheme going until the last productive person collapses under the weight of the burden.

The article says that 15% of the units must be offered at a lower than market rate (or a compensating payment to the city must be made). What it doesn’t say is how much lower than market rate—20% is significant, 50% is humongous, anything more is a nearly complete giveaway.

Easy enough...build 19 housing units or do the smart thing and get out of California.

The law requires developers building 20 or more housing units to offer 15% at below-market rates or pay into a city fund.

So then build in multiples of 19..............

I wonder about these justices opinions about providing free legal assistance as a condition of their elevation to the Supreme bench.

The developers will have to put this cost into the price of their other units...middle class gets hit again. Limo-libs still untouched.

OK, split the land into multiple 15-unit parcels, sell each to different corporate entities, and develop 15 units at a time.

I lived in a decent middle class housing addition that had some “affordable housing” doubles a few blocks down. You had to keep your car in the garage every single night. Any vehicle left in the driveway would be broken into and you stereo would be gone.

This is pushed by elites who live in established rich neighborhoods. By making any new neighborhoods crappy, the price of their homes is artificially inflated.

Mother in law suites become common, and an affordable housing for elderly people.

Servant’s quarters become affordable housing for working people, and even get added on to get the exemption for affordable housing.

Live-in nannies become a lower income resident.

More neighborhoods start authorizing the conversion of a four bedroom house into a mini-nursing home, three bedrooms for three to six old people, with another bedroom for the rotating turnover of staff.

Co-housing for older women sharing a residence becomes “affordable housing for old people”.

Son, girlfriend and their kid are turned into homeless people who are now tenants. (Don’t laugh, there are school districts classifying kids who live with Mom and grandparents as homeless, to get more revenue for high need populations.)

This is a 3rd Ammendment issue.

Developers shouldn’t be required to house soldiers that are on the opposite side of the class war.

THIS IS AGENDA 21.

IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS .. YOU BETTER FIND OUT BECAUSE IT’S COMING TO A NEIGHBORHOOD NEAR YOU.

THOSE WHO HAVE SCRIMPED AND SAVED TO PURCHASE THEIR DREAM HOME WILL BE VISITED BY A NEW APT BLDG - HOUSING THE DRUG DEALERS FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

YOUR HOME’S VALUE WILL PLUMMET TO THE CELLER; YOU WILL HAVE TO STAY HIDDEN INSIDE YOUR HOUSE - UNLESS THEY START SHOOTING UP THE NEIGHBORHOOD - LIKE BALTIMORE - AND NOBODY WILL BE SAFE.

SOUNDS LOVELY ..!!!!

I don’t know the details of this issue. When people cannot afford a house anyway, there is seemingly nothing to stop wealthy people from buying the “discounted” homes.

Is this the reason that I saw in the Seattle area so many developments of only 10 or so houses?
