Q3. General Public Comment
I support the City Council's efforts to fight the state housing mandate of 13,000 new housingunits, which is unreasonable, overly broad and not properly tailored for local residents andbusiness owners.I support the Council's concession to allow ADUs so long as they are not in business zones ormore than triplex housing. The "Builder's Remedy" is overly broad, unenforceable state regulation and a violation of theprecedent allowing local control and local residents to determine the pace and nature ofredevelopment and zoning. The Builder's Remedy unfairly gives an individual property ownerthe right to violate existing zoning and height and offset requirments necessary for stableneighborhoods and reasonable parking requirements & traffic control.
Why should one property owner get to trump all local ordinances and zoning requirements-without input and direction from other equally important & affected local residents and itsproperly elected officials? Multi purpose zoning has a role in city housing but without proper zoning and other reasonableregulations, and certainly not at the expense of residential neighborhoods and properly situatedbusiness districts.Thank you.
