The 7th cycle RHND from @California_HCD to @SCAGnews is 1.36M homes, compared to 1.34M in the 6th cycle. While the number of units is basically the same, the distribution has shifted. In the 6th cycle, 42% of homes called for were market rate. In the 7th, that has dropped to 34%.

Prop. 43 makes it more difficult for cities to fund affordable housing even when their own residents suggest it! Prop. 43 increases the percentage of votes required to approve local voter-proposed, special-purpose taxes from a simple majority (50%+1) to two-thirds. 1/3
