Marin County, Gavin Newsom’s hometown, has an exemption from the state’s housing quotas. If they were serious about housing, they wouldn’t exempt their backyard. Insider political deals killed any hope of real growth, not anything Huntington Beach is doing.
Impractical urban utopian dream: It is simply unrealistic to expect Southern California to add 1.34 million new homes in just the next few years, with barely 300,000 of those planned to come out of the entire Inland Empire, where land is plentiful and less expensive, and many communities are desperate for growth. What will soon grow to close to a million fewer Californians, sick of Newsom’s failures, yet the same stubborn clinging to a faulty plan. No updated research: Studies have shown that upwards of a net 750,000 people have moved out of California in the last few years, but yet the underlying data behind these demands hasn’t been updated at all. There is simply no way to meet this mandate, given the walls against homebuilding the governor and his allies have been standing up for years. But this time, the goal has been set to 2.5 million, five times what’s been shown as possible in this state. Too much, too fast: Over the last eight-year period, California’s statewide housing goal was 1.2 million new homes.
What we are not ever going to be are rubber stamps for Gavin Newsom’s vision of turning every community in California into his failed experiment of San Francisco, America’s worst city, whose decline began on Newsom’s watch as mayor there.įor starters, little about the governor’s housing math has ever made sense or been realistic. We remain pro-housing, but insist on housing that reflects our community and the reality on the ground. Gavin Newsom’s outrageous mandates and defend our Surf City values. Huntington Beach finds itself at the center of the fight over housing because of one reason: we dared stand up to Gov.
