Debate over ‘sprawl' divides California YIMBYs on permitting reform ballot measure

Backers of Proposition 45, a ballot measure designed to streamline permitting approval for a wide range of building projects, say its passage would spur the building of more than 20,000 homes a year. But that number hasn’t swayed some of the state’s most prominent pro-housing organizations, and pro-housing politicians, to back Prop. 45 . Among those groups, debate over the measure has boiled down to where all those new homes would go. Its opponents see the measure as cutting against state policymakers trying to encourage the construction of new homes within urban corridors and alongside public transit routes. Instead, they say the measure, if passed, is more likely to spur building outside urban areas, the kind of large planned housing developments detractors consider “sprawl” housing. Prop. 45’s backers don’t entirely disagree, although they say the measure will also further spur building within urban corridors, where the majority of CEQA lawsuits against housing projects occur, according to a study by one of the measure’s proponents. But more importantly, they say California needs to be building housing in more places to confront a long-running shortage that has driven up both rent and the cost of homeownership. “When we’re short millions and millions

Opinion: Yes on Prop 45 to own your piece of the California dream

In California, we talk a lot about affordable housing. I’d much prefer we build affordable housing rather than talk about it. Proposition 45, the Building and Affordable California Act, would make it easier to do just that. It would allow us to build more of the homes that Californians need, including single-family homes in the suburbs as well as condos, townhomes and apartments in our cities.
