Opinion: San Diego's new high-rise and backyard housing plan deserved more community scrutiny [Opinion]
I am severely disappointed by lack of interest in evidence-based decision-making by the majority of the City Council.
Four council members saw the problems with massive, non-routine changes and wanted Sustainable Development Areas out of the municipal code updates for further study. But such a reasonable request was unacceptable to the five members who gave no evidence-based reasons for supporting the Planning Department proposal. Their support was purely knee-jerk: housing now, housing everywhere, damn the consequences. Hundreds of written comments argued for further study.
The Sierra Club, the League of Women Voters, Neighbors for a Better San Diego and respected retired San Diego State University urban planner Nico Calavita asked that the provisions be taken out due to poor planning principles that undermined the city’s Climate Action Plan. The City Council signaled that it supports willy-nilly, head-in-the-sand housing development that kneecaps the climate plan but is a boon to developers.
