Oversight Board Meets to Disband Chula Vista’s Redevelopment Agency
PLEASE write to your state senators immediately and oppose AB 1585 that they will vote on this week. It gives another 1.4 BILLION dollars to build affordable housing and we all know by affordable they mean market rate housing at huge profits. This while our state parks are closed. The developers claim its too harsh to cut off the funds cold turkey and they need to be eased into it so another 1.4 BILLION will help w/ the transition.— April 10, 2012 10:20 p.m.
San Diego's redevelopment pigs want back at the trough
there is also another Bill in the Senate that will charge another tax on any new home purchase to "fund" affordable housing. they are tring to sneak it in.— April 10, 2012 10:15 p.m.
San Diego's redevelopment pigs want back at the trough
BTW if anyone has any doubt about what a scam and waste of tax money affordable housing is look at this example. 1 CA affordable housing developer stoled a quarter of a BILLION dollars from tax payers and was only discovered because of a bitter ex wife. http://www.bestdefender.com/news/April11/28.html— April 10, 2012 10:13 p.m.

We were offered up to $70,000 at 0% interest for buying in City Heights
Its high time to round these criminals up. politicians like Toni Atkins who declared the Federal Housing Emergency and helped create the glut have been profiting from low income housing projects for years. Community Housing Works and other "non-profits" will create projects as Delaware LLcs which allows them to make politicians investors in projects they vote on. In other words these groups propogate legal bribary and money laundering all under the umbrella of "helping the poor". thats why there is this sudden motivation to help the homeless especially since LeSar, Atkins partner was paid 1/2 a million dollars to count homeless people and come up w/ a "plan". No doubt a plan that will help her private clients and her wife become millionaires w/ your tax dollars.— March 22, 2012 11:33 p.m.

the truth of the matter is San Diego is just finding more creative ways to subsidize the building industry that runs this town so they are using our tax dollars that should be fixing our streets to bribe people to buy the glut. I really hate it when this corporate building industry maffia tries to hide under the umbrella of helping the poor. There is absolutely no help for renters. There is an 8 yr waiting list to get assistance to pay your rent but if you will buy a house we will give you $70k interest free.— March 22, 2012 11:23 p.m.

this feels like a PR piece for Community Housing Works. Those guys have built some of the worst buildings in the whole city. They are as corrupt as can be. I dont like how this piece keeps insisting its not a nahd-out, its a loan.....That is not true. If the loan is being subsidized by tax dollars which it is then it is a handout! We should be asking in a city and a state that is bankrupt why are we choosing to spend what little money we have bribing people to buy real estate?— March 22, 2012 11:19 p.m.
More Questions for the United Way in Their Involvement in CCDC Sponsored "Registry Week"
also I find it interesting that you are stunned by the "inaccuracy" of my blog yet your newest article in CityBeat on Homelessness indicates the program I am writing about has led to this new plan to add over 100 new units of development per year. Looks like you are the 1 that needs to catch up to me Kelly. Yes it was ALWAYS about developing new housing not mere vouchers.— November 27, 2011 8:24 p.m.
