From our partners at inewsource: It can take the better part of a year or more for San Diego’s building department to issue relatively straightforward housing permits.
A person skates in front of new construction on 30th Street in San Diego's North Park neighborhood, Nov. 29, 2022.
The city cannot allow delays to continue while the building department works to fill more than 100 vacancies, Councilmember Vivian Moreno said in a statement. But the city shouldn’t get in the habit of extending these two-year contracts, Moreno said, and she asked building department staff to update the budget committee on the plan to actually fill the vacancies.
That’s why this additional support is so crucial, because the companies have the ability and expertise to help make a dramatic impact on the backlog, while freeing up city staff to focus on housing projects and hiring. This action has been in the works for some time, Lowe said, and the companies have already been assisting the city in other areas.
