BIA San Diego was recently mentioned in The San Diego Union Tribune.
“While the building industry understands that the fees haven’t changed in years, this proposal seems excessive, Amiee Faucett, president and CEO of the Building Industry Association of San Diego County, wrote in a letter to the City Council.
She wrote that ‘the magnitude of several proposed increases — particularly those in the range of 300 percent to 500 percent — comes at a time when the residential development industry is already facing significant cost escalation across land, labor, materials, insurance and financing. In this environment, abrupt and substantial fee increases risk further constraining housing production and exacerbating the region’s affordability challenges.'”
