FROM NEXTDOOR
WE GOT PLAYED. THE PCH & PEARL DEVELOPER IS FLIPPING THE LOT FOR $14 MILLION. Remember the massive fight over the proposed development at PCH and Pearl? The one where the developer threatened to sue Redondo Beach? They stood in front of the Commission and claimed they were bringing "affordable housing" to our city. They demanded dangerous safety waivers. They ignored our warnings about the valet parking disaster on Pearl Street. They pushed it all through under the guise of helping the community. The city finally caved and approved it in January.

Guess what? They just listed the dirt for sale. It was never about housing. It was an "entitlement flip." They used the state housing mandates and the threat of a lawsuit as a weapon to get the city to approve their plans. Why? Because an "approved" lot is worth a fortune. They just listed this empty dirt for $14,000,000. Look at the screenshots below. The listing literally advertises the project as "configurable as apartments or condominiums." Remember when their lawyer was "confused" about whether they were renting or selling? This is why! They didn't care because they never actually planned to build it. They sold out our community safety buffer, compromised a school route, and gridlocked Fire Station No. 2, all to maximize their payday on a land flip. Please share this. The residents of Redondo Beach need to know exactly how these developers are manipulating state laws to cash out at our expense.

Not that most of the concessions weren't given by the City of course. So much for local guy and local daughter want to take care of the City.

Why developers can't afford to build affordable
housing
Why developers can't afford to build affordable housing Cartwright, Julia R
. The Washington Post
; Washington, D.C.. 05 May 2026: A.19.

America's housing shortage has a cruel truth at its center: The people who need it the most are the least likely to find any. Low-cost rental units are disappearing from the development pipeline just as demand for them surges.

The reason lies in construction economics. Labor costs have risen steadily while construction productivity has stagnated. Faced with these realities, developers are increasingly building high-end units rather than affordable housing. If the United States wants to get serious about this problem, it must confront two related issues:
the role of labor costs and the failure to improve construction productivity.

The need for affordable housing has rarely been greater. Roughly a third of U.S. households are cost-burdened, meaning they spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing. Among renters, the share is closer to half. You might expect the market to respond to that kind of demand by producing more affordable units.

Instead, housing developers have done the opposite. Over the past 25 years, the share of luxury "Class A" apartment construction has grown by 18 percentage points and now accounts for just over half of all new multifamily units. The share of more affordable units with fewer amenities has fallen by the same margin.

Why? Primarily because developers cannot build cheaply enough to serve lowincome renters. New construction that rents for less than $1,000 a month is nearly impossible to pull off, resulting in a decrease of 7 million units in that range between 2013 and 2023. Meanwhile, the total number of households in America has increased, while the supply of new housing of any price has barely moved; America is still building at roughly 1980s levels. Something structural is preventing the market from responding to the demand, and that something, more than zoning or permitting or interest rates, is the cost of labor.

Labor is key because of what economists call the Baumol effect, formally Baumol's cost disease: In industries that cannot improve their productivity, costs rise anyway, because workers must be paid wages that are competitive with other industries. A software company can double its output with the same staff by writing smarter code.

By contrast, a construction crew framing a house in 2026 requires roughly the same hands for the same hours as one did in 1975. Yet those workers need wages that keep pace with the larger economy. The construction industry has lived with this dynamic for the past half-century.

Over this period, U.S. construction productivity has been flat or even declining, even as productivity in the broader economy has surged. At the same time, labor accounts for roughly 50 percent of construction costs, a share unchanged since 1945 and one that dwarfs even restaurants at 30 percent, let alone automobile manufacturing at 10 percent. Taken together, these trends translate directly into higher building costs.

This dynamic reshapes what gets built. When fixed costs rise, developers shift toward projects that can justify the higher costs. Lower-cost housing becomes increasingly difficult to finance. The result is that new affordable units are almost never built at all; instead, existing units become affordable as properties age.

The most direct path forward addresses both the supply and demand aspects of the labor cost problem. Construction is already heavily dependent on immigrant labor, and the sector faces a serious worker shortage, exacerbated by the impact of the Trump administration's tough immigration agenda. One possible solution would involve increasing the number of temporary worker visas that allow foreign workers to fill short-term labor needs. This would ease the labor shortage and relieve upward wage pressure. Streamlining occupational licensing across state lines would let workers follow demand rather than being trapped in a state by patchwork credentialing rules. And repealing prevailing wage laws, which mandate union-scale compensation on any project touching public funds, would directly bring down the cost of building the units most intended to help low-income renters.

The longer game is improving construction productivity to meet the housing demand.

Modular and factory-built construction moves labor into controlled environments where scheduling is efficient, waste is minimized and automation can be introduced over time. Japan, for example, maintains lower construction costs despite high wages largely because factory-built housing is becoming standard practice, backed by a regulatory environment that accommodates it. American building codes still treat modular construction as a niche exception. Shifting to performance-based codes, allowing builders to meet standards through any method, would help unlock the innovation needed to close the productivity gap.

The housing challenge is often framed as a problem of supply, but it is more precisely a problem of what kind of supply gets built. Until policymakers address the economic forces that make affordable housing unprofitable to produce, the market will continue to deliver homes where they are least needed and fail where they are needed most. Change that environment, and the incentives will follow.

Subject: Public Comment - Blue Folder - Non-Agenda Items - Cost Recovery of December 11 2025 False Alarm Call at Silverado
Date: Tuesday, May 5, 2026 5:58:39 PM
CAUTION: Email is from an external source; Stop, Look, and Think before opening attachments or links.

To: City Council, City Attorney, City Manager
There is no reason that taxpayers should have to suffer the cost of false alarms when residents mistook spray on holiday snow and condensate for smoke-filled rooms. The following estimate outlines to cost and methods of recovery for the City. It is intended to protect the pocketbooks of the responsible taxpayers.

1. Executive Summary
On December 11, 2025, a 911 report from an errant property owner triggered a massive multi-agency emergency response to the 120-unit Silverado memory care facility. The response involved approximately 12 units and multiple crews for one hour of on-site activity. This memo outlines the estimated "loaded" operational costs and the legal mechanisms for shifting financial liability to the reporting party.

2. Estimated Loaded Cost of Response
The "loaded cost" includes personnel (salary, benefits, and overtime), specialized heavy apparatus, and administrative overhead. Calculations assume a 1.5-hour total duration to account for mobilization and demobilization.

Resource Category Estimated Cost (Low) Estimated Cost (High) Personnel: Fire (35+),
Police (4+), Paramedics
$6,900 $10,230
Apparatus: Engines, Hook
& Ladder, Cruisers
$1,500 $2,500
Administrative: Dispatch &
Management (15%)
$1,260 $1,910
3rd Party: Private
Ambulance Standby Fees
$400 $1,000

TOTAL ESTIMATED
IMPACT
$10,060 $15,640

3. Liability and Cost Recovery Analysis
Because the emergency was not the result of a system malfunction or facility negligence, but rather an errant report, the City of Redondo Beach has two primary avenues for cost recovery:

A. Civil Cost Recovery (Municipal Code)
The City can bypass standard "False Alarm" fines (typically ~$179) and bill the reporting party for extraordinary service costs. This is common when a resident's reckless actions result in a significant drain on municipal resources.

B. Criminal Restitution (California Penal Code)
PC 148.3 (False Report of Emergency): If the investigation determines the report was made knowingly or with reckless disregard, the individual faces misdemeanor or felony charges.

Mandatory Restitution: Per state law, a person convicted of a false report is liable for the entire cost of the response. This includes the salaries of every firefighter and officer on the scene.

4. Recommended Action Items
To ensure the assisted living facility is not held liable for these costs, the following steps should be taken:

1. Secure CAD Logs: Request the "Computer Aided Dispatch" (CAD) logs and 911 audio via a Public Records Act (PRA) request to identify the specific caller and the nature of their claim.

2. Incident Report Documentation: Obtain the Fire Incident Report (Fee: $71.00) to confirm that no mechanical fire alarm was triggered by the facility’s internal systems.

3. Formal Rebuttal: If an invoice is issued to the facility, submit a formal rebuttal citing the errant third-party report as the sole proximate cause of the dispatch.

Disclaimer: This estimate is based on the City of Redondo Beach Master Fee Schedule and FEMA equipment rates. Actual billing may vary based on exact staffing levels and specific unit types deployed. All values estimated.

These are approximations of the views of the proposed BCHD/Sunrise 60-foot tall buildings.

You'll see that they blot out the view substantially, and create a significant noise reflection and peeping tom 5-story, 60-foot tall wall toward surrounding residential neighborhoods. Given the 30-foot elevated site, the buildings are 90-feet or more above most residential and 120 feet above some Torrance neighborhood homes.

We urge you to contact your Mayors and City Councils to preserve both NEIGHBORHOOD HEALTH and PROPERTY VALUES. BCHD admits it will have significant noise impacts for up to 5 years from construction. The peer reviewed literature is clear about the health dangers of BCHD's proposed noise that exceed FTA limits. Further, modeling shows surrounding neighborhoods have already sacrificed $200M of property value. This larger, closer to the edge, taller facility will undoubtedly accelerate the taking of our property value.

We have lived here for decades. The so-called BCHD defunct hospital is all too visible from our west windows, and the BCHD plan seems to entail enlarging the buildings and further taking property values from our neighborhood. I don't know how to convince Torrance officials to oppose this proposal.
