"Suppose a builder proposes to develop a 100-condominium development in San Jose within 1,000 feet of Interstate 280.
Under proposed new air quality guidelines, the developer for the first time in the country could be told to study the health effects of freeway pollution on the people who would live in the condos.
If the health risk is too great, the developer might need to modify or scrap his development plan or spend extra time persuading the city or county to approve it."
Now you know why the cost of housing is so high, even in bad times--government creates reports, studies and changes that are added into the cost of a house or rental unit.
Time to have affordable housing--get government out of the way.
