The state housing crisis has no jurisdictional boundary. It touches each an every citizen. And if left uncorrected, it will detrimentally affect the continued quality of life of our neighborhoods and the sustained economic viability of California's job centers. The Planning Report approached Julie Bornstein, Director of the state's Housing and Community Development Department to get her take on the crisis. Her response--gleaned from years of experience in real estate and business law, as well as state and local politics--is an incredibly candid discourse of the current predicament and the multitude of ways to correct it, if only we work together.
