There is nothing in the new housing laws that requires the new residents to be currently living and working in the county. The new residents don’t even need to be citizens or have employment on a farm or Vineyard. They could be non-citizens, who would like to work on a Vineyard.
Besides that reality, there was one where 10-20+ homes/families on a restricted cul de sac re: had no new housing units homes on that street for decades.
Now, anyone can build one to two so called mother in law units, ADU’s, usually behind the original homes with minimal B$, in about 6 months.
We have 2 recently newly built ADU’s on the end of our cul de sac with at least 4 young women living in the 2 units and at least 4 small vehicles.
There is a new stipulation to the units built for the homeless, though, one that is hidden in the fine print. The homeless units must remain in the care of the city to be used only for homeless, even if the property is sold.
I don’t get this, but people must get a credit toward their property taxes for building a homeless unit in their back yard.
I don’t sympathize with these idiots at all. They vote for this when they vote Democrat and they think that it is never going to affect them. Besides, I thought that most of the wineries in CA, had been converted to marijuana farms.
