Despite state outreach and 30-day deadlines, these cities haven’t met their obligations, even as 95% of communities nationwide comply. The state’s stance is clear: housing crisis demands action, not excuses. While cities claim they’re close to finalizing plans and collaborating with state officials, legal action is now unavoidable. This follows a precedent set by Huntington Beach, which was ordered to pay mounting fines after the state Supreme Court ruled against it. The state insists these housing elements are critical to solving California’s ongoing housing emergency. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
