On Wednesday morning (11/19/25) at 9:00 AM, the County Board of Supervisors are going to finally hold a Housing Workshop. Your BIA San Diego will be making a presentation. The below document has a lot of background information. We will only be able to cover the highlights.
Please consider attending in person or virtually. If you wish to speak virtually you must register ahead of the item being taking up. Go to the County website and register.
Some pivotal points that can be made.
- In the County’s Development Feasibility Analysis it was determined it is nearly impossible to build housing in unincorporated San Diego due to regulatory barriers and financial and market landscape.
- The County is far behind its own schedule on major policy changes, including updating the zoning ordinance to comply with the General Plan, inclusionary housing and a true VMT solution.
- Most of the housing completed today are residual projects that have been in the pipeline for years and ADU units.
