"Lowering the threshold goes the wrong way. I think if you're trying to incentivize developers to produce, putting more burden on them is not the right thing to do," said Planning Commission Vice Chair Matt Kamkar. He emphasized that removing obstacles would better encourage development in the city.
Rob Eastwood, community development director, stated, "The proposal will not affect future development because developers will still make a significant profit, regardless of if they add an affordable component or pay a fee." This highlights the city's ongoing issues with housing demand amidst challenging market conditions.
