56 Units zoned for 14 with ministerial review under the guise of “Complete Communities”, High Density, Low Income. 8 Units 412 sq.ft studio apartments at low to mid low income, the other 48 at full price. By passes set backs & height restrictions, with little zoning compliance, and no resident parking. Rosecrans is a two lane road at this location and the Developer has planned excavation for a basement on a hazardous waste site that will expose the Cabrillo students, businesses and residences to known carcinogens as it abuts and overshadows Cabrillo Elementary School on one side and it abuts, overshadows and obscures The Historical Jennings House on the Rosecrans side. Build what it is zoned for. This is an “affordable housing” ruse that will just create more parking problems, block views, and not maintain compliance with our established community plan. This is just the start to what our community may become.
We need housing more building of housing even if some units over priced only supply of housing can possibly solve our homelessness problems people complain about too many homeless but won’t WILL NOT BUILD HOUSING TO GETBTHEM HOMES
We don’t have a housing crisis — we have an affordable housing crisis. There’s already enough market-rate housing out there.
I do not have an opinion about this specific project, however, even with available housing, individuals who struggle with severe mental health conditions or substance abuse may not have the necessary support to maintain stable housing. Additionally, in San Diego as well as many cities, the cost of housing far exceeds what individuals experiencing homelessness can afford, meaning that new housing developments often do not address the needs of the most vulnerable populations. Furthermore, without comprehensive social services, including job training, healthcare, and addiction treatment, housing alone is insufficient to break the cycle of homelessness.
Lastly, I don’t know about the rest of society, but I work hard for the money I earn. Why should someone who is experiencing homelessness be GIVEN a home? I was not given the home I reside in, I had to PAY FOR IT. Besides, we all know that if someone is given something rather than having to work for it, they tend not to treat it very well, especially if they are mentally ill or have a substance abuse problem. Therefore, it would be a bad investment to GIVE a home to anyone, as they will likely trash it the first chance they get!
This project is not for people experiencing homelessness — where did you get that? Most homeless people are not mentally ill or have a substance problem. Many of us believe that housing is a human right. You know, it stems from our founding document – the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Remember that? What’s with the attitude.
I got that from Lawrence in answer to your question Frank.
Frank, not sure what you mean by attitude. Yes, I remember the declaration of Independence. I do not recall anywhere in that document where is describes GIVING housing to anyone.
How can one pursue happiness without a roof over their head?
I don’t know Frank. Jesus was born in a manger and seemed pretty happy!
Hello John what question did you get from LAWRANCE maybe Homeless (not anyone else ) has a right to housing but at least someone should not be criminalized Or demonized for being unable to afford outrageous housing all your loud anti housing prevent housing that might help at least some homeless
LAWRENCE, I did not criticize or demonize anyone for being unhoused. I simply stated that it is my opinion that you can not solve the problem of homelessness by GIVING people homes.
Apparently having tons of parking spaces are Far more important than building housing and getting homeless houses if people complain about too many homeless Nimbyism is the major reason
