Summary
California is suing five cities, including Turlock, for failing to comply with state housing laws — a move designed to force action on the housing crisis. The state demands these cities finalize their housing elements, which outline where and how to build homes for all income levels. While most cities have responded to earlier warnings, these five remain behind, prompting Attorney General intervention. Turlock’s rezoning hearings are set for August, while Costa Mesa’s mayor expressed surprise, noting their city completed rezoning in April. The state’s message is clear: no city is exempt from helping solve the housing shortage. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
