Commentary: A constitutional amendment pending in the Legislature would declare a “fundamental human right to housing,” but its virtue signaling could backfire in the real world. 📝 DanCALmatters
Perhaps it would, but not automatically.is full of the vague language that lawyers love because it requires lawsuits and judicial interpretations to have real-world meaning.
In other words, it would invite even more litigation on an issue that is already awash in contentious legalism. The most bothersome aspect of ACA 10, however, is its assumption – as Tubbs suggests – that state and local governments have the innate ability to solve California’s housing dilemma.Building enough housing requires, above all, lots of money, much more than those governments can muster on their own. That money can only come from private investors who must be persuaded that building homes and apartments in California will be reasonably profitable.
Officialdom’s most important role is reducing the bureaucratic hassle and costs of such investment, as Newsom and the Legislature have sought to do through streamlining legislation. ACA 10 is not only virtue signaling but sends the wrong message to potential housing investors that California could make development even more difficult and potentially less profitable.Want to submit a guest commentary or reaction to an article we wrote?
