Some residents say the project is too big for the small community. Supporters say the plan will help bring the city in compliance with state law.
Del Mar city council leaders planned to take up the issue at their meeting Monday.
"Not again, are you kidding? That is my initial reaction," said Solana Beach resident Carla Echols-Hayes. "We believe we are able to solve our affordable housing by having areas throughout the city number one, and number two at the fairgrounds," said Del Mar council member David Druker. "People in my generation will struggle to afford if cities like Del Mar and all across the coast don’t provide for more affordable housing options for its workforce, residents, small business owners," said Kevin Sabellico."Unfortunately, the City of Del Mar has once again been found to be out of compliance with the California Housing Element Law by the California Department of Housing and Community Development.
We hope that the City will see Seaside Ridge as the opportunity it is and continue advancing this worthy project without delay. The City must demonstrate to the State that it has taken every measure possible to alleviate our region’s affordable housing crisis. Seaside Ridge is a real project that moves the City toward – and not away from – compliance with the State.
